Alexander McQueen Dies At Age 40

British fashion designer, Alexander McQueen, was found dead in his London home this morning (Feb 11, 2010). Although the cause of death has not been officially reported, news has been widely spread that he committed suicide due to the sadness of his mother’s passing on February 2, 2010.

I am deeply saddened by the loss of this creative genius. His work was beautifully unique, and his shows were true art. Today is the start of New York Fashion Week, and a devastating one at that. The whole fashion community is mourning the loss of this iconic designer. McQueen was scheduled to show his new collection in Paris on March 9th.

Rest in Peace Lee Alexander McQueen

1969-2010

Haha just kidding… But, shoes have been on my mind today after discovering the most amazing pair of nude pumps (that I’ve been searching for), only to find that they were too small!! Omg. So sad. I stood in front of the mirror for 30 minutes trying to justify the pain haha. Oh well. Here’s some eye candy for you while I go back into mourning.

How incredibly intimidating are these boots?? The editorial, “A Landing Not Totally Under Control,” was shot by Urivaldo Lopes. The boots are from Parisian fetish boutique, Phylea.
