Steve's very capable company will be taking over the design and production for Betsey which means I am out of a job. A very amazing job that I feel very fortunate to have had.
Working with Betsey has been one of the best experiences of my career so far and I am so honored to have been her shoe designer. I think Betsey and I were a match made in cotton candy heaven and I will miss our meetings but will always feel like part of her world.
BETSEY I LOVE YOU!!!
Thank you for sharing your light with me!
So what's next?? Stay tuned to find out! I still have Harajuku Lovers and I've heard rumors of some exciting stuff that may be headed my way :)
This is still the coolest thing ever... Sent to me from Betsey after our last collection.
With a heavy heart,
Celine
Your Shoe Girl
XOXO

Oh my goodness! Well I have no doubt that you probably have something even more amazing in the works. Can't wait to see it. Did you see your page in VAMPD? It's fabulous and I love it!
I am sorry that this happened. But I do still think that you are very lucky to be given an opportunity to design shoes (or heck design anything) with a prominent figure in fashion. That thought alone is something to make your heart swell with pride and humility. Reading your blog, you'd seem to mirror Betsy's essence in life and love, and it is translated so beautifully to the shoes. I feel there could be another opportunity that awaits you and this experience with Betsy is just the beginning, a stepping stone to bigger things.
I wish you luck and I look forward for your next adventure.
Aww so sorry to hear that! But you've got great style and creativity, I'm sure you'll find something just as good or better!
Best Wishes ;) You can do it!
Don't worry things will look up soon....I mean opportunity is bound to follow talent :)!

Hi Celine, I've been reading about Steve Madden taking over Betsey Johnson, and I wondered how it would affect you. I'm sorry that you are bummed right now, but I feel you will have many opportunities in the future.
You seem like a great girl with a great heart. Plus, your talent and positive attitude will take you a long way. Your loyal followers, like me, are here for you sending positive vibes and well wishes your way.
You never know what kind of lemonade you can make from these lemons. Should you go out on your own, I would buy your shoes in a heartbeat.
ohh, very sorry, but when a door is closed a window open suddenly. Kissessss

sorry to hear about this :( but i'm sure your talent and hard work will continue to land you great jobs with other designers! looking forward to your future projects. best of luck! xo
Sorry to hear Celine, you are super talented though and I'm something equally as amazing will find you again!
I really like your new title thingy (sorry I cannot think of the technical term heheh!) you should update it every season =)
Bummer!!! Betsey is my fave :( oh well, this just means better things to come. And better than Betsey is going to be REALLY good!
Huge bummer, love Betsey and you did seem perfect for her! Wore Betsey shoes for my wedding :(
Sorry to hear the crappy news :( I guess this just means that now you'll have time for much more fabulous projects! Best of luck! xDanielle
I'm so sorry to hear that! I'm excited to see what else you are coming up with for your other projects though!! You will get through this.
I'm so sorry to hear that... :-( I hope everything will be fine any time soon.
Aww babe, that's so sad. However you're totally fabulous and I'm sure you'll be snapped up to work on another exciting project soon x x x
You have such a great attitutde. I know some one as upbeat and positive as you, only has good things waiting for them right around the corner.

I would love to hear your opinion about these shoes!

These shoes! Sorry

oh my god, how cool is this? I just discovered your blog and I´m speechless!
Sorry to hear about this, but I bet something even bigger is in store for you. This is my favorite blog, not because of the awesome shoes but because of you - it's quirky and inspiring and you're so likeable! I hope you start blogging again soon, I check daily for your entries; I'm not a shoe designer (or a designer at all) but your blog gives me creative inspiration and makes me happy!
Good luck on your next adventure, whatever it may be!
I think I am still reeling from the news. I am so sorry about this! But I do agree with so many of the viewers: your talent and attitude are going to take you on to bigger and better things. (Maybe a line of your own??) :)
I am also so sad of the loss at Betsey and the scary thought of SM designing the shoes for her brand. I am a huge fan (or was), own at least 30 pairs and bet most pairs in my collection could be attributed to your amazing designs. And now the quality, comfort and "fun" factor are in question. Without you, what is to come of her line?
As a fellow shoe lover and shoe blogger - I look forward to seeing where life takes you. You are an inspiration and such a positive person. I have no doubt wonderful things are going to happen for you!
