Hi-Topz

Contemplating the hype on the new sneaker trend, I realized that I have been a sneaker girl all my life. Remember L.A. Gear? Yeah, I had those. A mint green pair to be exact. I love being on my feet (I'm usually the one standing in a room full of empty chairs), so wearing comfortable shoes is pretty important to me. In college, I lived off of my blue suede Chucks, which I haven't had the heart to part with til now.

Although I've been staring at those Isabel Marant sneakers (yeah, you know what I'm talking about), for me, spending an exorbitant amount on wedge sneakers just didn't seem right. Plus, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the whole wedge/sneaker combination. On that note, meet my new sneaker buddies- a pair of black hi-tops from Aldo that zip up on the side and have a nice flash of red. Not too trendy but with just the right amount of detail to stand out from the monotone hi-top pack. I can't wait to wear these guys down every chance I get!

  2. Seriously loving your blog. For me, the thing with Marant sneakers is, indeed, the ridiculous price. But then again, you're always paying for the brand too, so...I guess it's all about priorities (which for me means no splurging until I'm a millionaire hehe)

    I love your aldo sneakers and your necklace!
