  • Nike Dunk High Wedge Sneakers

    Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.

    I have them on now and purchased them back in 2016; I used my Nordstrom employee discount to buy these boot-like sneakers (green pair at the bottom). Since they have walked many steps in Washington D.C., many dinners, and always made my outfits pop effortlessly!

    They key to keeping them looking great was not wearing them often.

    These shoes are so amazing that my niece wanted to take them from me many times! I refuse to let them go until they completely fall apart.

    I forgot another pair of Nike Dunks (hi) that I own from Nordstrom.com. The white pair pictured below are adorned with pearl accents with the Nike sign engraved on them. Nike’s comfort level has fallen throughout the years, but their styles are classic and with dope designs!

  • Too much embellishment ?

    What is too much going on in an outfit? Is it too much print, graffiti, pattern…EMBELLISHMENTS?! While I am one who truly believes in clean, cut style…embellishment is part of an identity-a personality. This is something you gravitate towards and don’t necessarily inherit. Embellishment can be rather tacky if an art of placement isn’t used, and many don’t understand that. A brand that overly uses embellishment has had a tough time staying relevant in this treacherous market called fashion. The story needs to be told elegantly, and not mentally plaguing.
