BoundCon IV

So where did I buy this shoe? And why have I been absent so often the past week? The answer:
Last week our Swiss friends and their kids came to visit us. We enjoyed spending our time with them (shopping, eating, going out, Sealife, etc.). Saturday one of them went to a convention. He liked it so much that he told us to go there too.



So on Sunday, off I went with one of my best friends to the BoundCon IV. It is the biggest fetish convention in Europe with more than 500 exhibitors from the international fetish scene, international models, shows, bondage workshops with some of the best bondage masters and a lot more.
It was quite interesting as they had a lot of shows on stage and just a few visitors. So I could see everything pretty close and could get a good impression. I saw 3 bondage shows which were completely different, and which ranged from erotic and steamy to gross and my friend had to leave for the bar. (After drinking a vodka he managed to come back again.)
I had never seen something like this before and you can imagine that I was watching the shows with an open mouth. There were mainly male visitors there and apparently they noticed my wondering looks. I was glad when my friend came back.

I spent most of the time looking at the shows, so I didn´t have a lot of time to explore the stands with the bdsm items. There were so many things I had neither seen nor heard of yet. Devices - which I don´t even want to know what they are used for.
But there was one stand which I couldn´t pass... A shoe stand! ;) So that´s the reason why I am in the possession of a pair of ultra high heels now.

When we came back home I showed B. my shoes and a bracelet I had bought. He asked me whether I had something new for him too and he was disappointed when I said no. I guess if he had seen the stuff you could buy there, he would have been pretty happy that I hadn´t brought anything for him. ;)

EDM #1 - A Shoe (Amy, Amy, Amy by Amy Winehouse)

I won´t be blogging the next few days either. I´m currently sketching EDM #1 - Draw a shoe. It is not ready yet, so I´ll post only part of the whole pic. In fact, when I´ll post the whole sketch, you´ll have a better idea why I didn´t have the time to blog the past days. A little clue: I spent some time at the place where I bought this shoe. (Actually I thought that I would need some practice to be able to walk in them. But in fact it´s not very difficult.)
Due to several requests ;), I have posted a pic of the real shoes at flickr.



Talking about shoes, heels and "walking past his desk in heels": Here´s another great song (from the first album) by Amy Winehouse. Please listen to it.



Amy, Amy, Amy
by Amy Winehouse

Attract me
'til it hurts to concentrate
Distract me
stops me doing work I hate

and just to show him how it feels
I walk past his desk in heels
one leg resting on a chair
from the side he pulls my hair

(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
He's just too hard to ignore
Masculine you spin a spell
I think you'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
Where's my moral parallel?

It takes me
half an hour to write a verse
He makes me
imagine it from bad to worse

My weakness for the other sex
every time his shoulders flex
way the shirt hangs off his back
my train of thought spins right off track

(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
He's just too hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
so where's my moral parallel?

His own style
right down to his Diesel jeans
Immobile
I can't think by any means

Underwear peeks out the top
I'll let you know when you should stop
from the picture my mind drew
I know I'd look good on you

(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
You're just too hard to ignore
Masculine you spin a spell
I think you'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
so where's my moral parallel?

Creative energy abused
all my lyrics go unused

but when I clock black hair, blue eyes
a teardrop I fantasise

(Amy Amy Amy)
(Amy Amy Amy)
Although I've been here before
(Amy Amy Amy)
He's just too hard to ignore
Masculine he spins a spell
I think he'd wear me well
(Amy Amy Amy)
so where's my moral parallel?
