The Item: Lemonade’s finest, Beyonce Wearing the Versace Unity Ankle Strap Leather Pump. The divalicious singer was spotted in her designer heels while out on the town celebrating with her hubby, hip hop artist Jay Z.

You Asked: I don’t know who styles Bey, but I find myself only liking pieces lol like LOVE her shoes! The dress is cool but I don’t think they go together. But yeah I wouldn’t mind getting some of those. At first they kind of looked like Fentys but then I zoomed in and saw Versace. Anything you can tell me about these shoes?

The Verdict: Looking for an end of the year splurge? Queen Bey only rocks with high end designer clothes so these pumps are going to cost you a little coin. For her night out Beyonce wore a pair of Versace heels known as the Versace Unity Ankle Strap Leather Pump.

The cost? These babies retail for a nice easy payment of $1,025. Furthermore, Bey’s pumps were paired with a Versace printed dress which was apart of the Versace Fall 2017 RTW (ready to wear) collection.

Arianne Suggs August 22, 2017August 22, 2017Leave a Comment

The Item: Zendaya Wears Gucci Princetown Angry Cat Loafers as spotted on Instagram.

You Asked: So I was zooming in on Zendaya’s shoes because I thought I saw an eyeball. Then I got my friend involved and she saw the same thing! It looks like an animal print on them, almost like a cat. As odd as they are somehow Zendaya makes them look amazing. Can you confirm about the shoes? Is it a kitten? Who makes these?? lol.

Ask and Tell: Zendaya Wears Gucci Princetown Angry Cat Loafers

The Verdict: Denim on denim is a style that can look chic all on it’s own. However, we have to agree Zendaya has a personal flair that can take things up a level effortlessly. Moreover, you will be happy to know that you and your awesome detective friend are not seeing things. There is definitely an eye of an animal on Zendaya’s designer loafers.

To be exact what you are seeing is a cat, an angry one at that. Daya’s shoes are produced by Gucci and they are named the Gucci Princetown Angry Cat Loafers that retail for $750. A hilarious name especially since Angry Cat is such a meme and social media phenomenon.

Nevertheless, Zendaya also wears some other pricey, but stylish accessories. For instance, she rocks the John Hardy Jewelry Modern Chain Bracelet in gold. The bracelet retails for just under $600.

Arianne May 9, 2017May 9, 2017Leave a Comment

Imagine running in a shoe that literally leaves nothing but air beneath your feet. Sound farfetched? Having a bit of a Marty McFly “in the future” fashion moment? Well, the new Nike tech is pioneering an innovative design making the impossible possible. In the just released Nike Kiss My Air Ad Campaign Starring Winnie Harlow Nike reveals their Nike Air Vapormax. Kicks that are extremely lightweight, comfy, supportive yet with stretch. Ladies welcome to a new era!

Nike Kiss My Air Ad Campaign Starring Winnie Harlow

How did Nike achieve more air? Their new shoe contains a cushioning system which provides the wearer with more bounce as well as flexibility. Moreover, there are absolutely no additional structural elements (no foam layer) which results in nothing but air being found underfoot. Cool right?

Well, making a an awesome product is one thing. However, choosing the right face and personage to market such product is another. Nike shared why chose model Winnie Harlow to bring the Vapormax to the masses. Nike states,

“When you refuse to be held down by convention, even the ground starts feeling a lot like Air. Whether she’s killing the runway or challenging perceptions of beauty in her industry, Winnie Harlow defies standards to set her own. Measure up to yourself, never others. Nike Air Vapor Max Asphalt is here.”

Nike Kiss My Air Ad Campaign Starring Winnie Harlow – Model Celebration

We are always happy to see more models of color have the opportunity shine bright in a brand’s ad campaign. Winnie Harlow is just as excited about this particular accomplishment. Harlow explains,

“I can’t believe this… I have a Nike campaign. One of my ultimate goals in life and I really didn’t think I’d accomplish it so soon. But by the grace of God, I am really apart of the Nike family and I’m so honored.

I’ve seen my face on billboards and in Times Square and it’s always such a special feeling. But my heart jumped when I passed Nike and saw my hard work plastered and blown up for everyone to see on the inside and outside of the stores. Thank you guys for continuing to allow me to inspire. Thank you to my team for believing in me and thank Nike for welcoming me to the Fam.”

Congratulations Winnie on the ad campaign it is so well-deserved! Want to cop a pair of Nike’s new Air Vapor Max Asphalt shoe? It is available now! A pair will cost you around $260 plus tax.

The Teyana Taylor Reebok Freestyle Hi Color Bomb Pack has received much attention due to the fact that they are bringing retro design into the modern era. Well, that is if you consider anything from the 90’s vintage. Reebok commented on the pack stating, “Free your style! We’ve teamed up again with Teyana Taylor to bring you the Freestyle Hi Color Bomb pack. The pack draws inspiration from the loud colors of the 90’s, which is also when Teyana started wearing Freestyles as a little girl.”

As you can see this fashion collaboration was meant to be. Furthermore, we love the fact that the pack is so true to Teyana’s personal style. Taylor’s fun urban chic allure is authentic and captivating. She is certainly the epitome of “get you a girl that can do both.” Relaxed or upscale, Mrs. TT slays. Taylor hit up social to talk Reebok saying,

“So you know we had to go ahead and drop a second round of Reebok Freestyle Hi Color Bomb pack! I’m loving these light colors. These might be my faves right now. So go pick you some up today! They are also available now online at reebok.com.”

New Christian Siriano Payless Shoes Collection In The Works

Christian Siriano is a fashion designer for the people. He saved the day when actress Leslie Jones needed a dress for her biggest movie premiere and no one else would dress her. Also, during Fashion Week he advocated for plus size models. Siriano believes that curves are the way of the future and the rest of the industry needs to get on board. Christian sent several curvaceous models down the runway for his spring collection show.

Moreover, Christian just seems to understand a real woman’s body. He creates designs that look gorgeous on women of all shapes and sizes. Thus proving he can create for one and all and not just a mannequin.

New Christian Siriano Payless Shoes Collection

With such understanding of us ladies it is no wonder he also understands that sometimes designer looks are just not in the budget. The CS x Payless Shoes Collection is coming soon and if you love pink you will be in 7th heaven. Christian hit up SM to say, “To brighten up a rainy day in NYC a little sneak peek of our new pink sequin shoes from our new collection with Payless Shoes.” (Shoes Pictured Above)

Pink makes sense because Siriano has been quite busy working on other pink creations. Recent photos showcase gowns incorporating pale shades of pink to deeper rose tints. Take a look for yourself:

These beautiful couture looks are apart of Christian’s Resort and Spring 2017 collections. Therefore, does this point to a Payless Shoes release occurring in time for spring? Our Spidey senses are feeling like it but we will definitely keep you in the loop!
