Rihanna Showcases The New PUMA Eskiva

Arianne SuggsUpdated on October 26, 2015October 26, 2015Leave a Comment

Looking to take your shoe game to a whole other level? Then, it is time to look to the badgal herself for the pair of sporty sneaks that you are going to want to cop before the holiday rush. Rihanna can be seen flying high in PUMA’s latest release, the PUMA Eskiva.

Now we are only going to warn all the sneaker heads and kicks lovers out there once. If you want to get your hands on these bad boys you better put your bids in now. Remember Rihanna’s Creeper shoes sold out in just three hours! Of course, it is of note that the Eskiva is not a collaboration between Rihanna and the popular brand. Rihanna is a brand ambassador with creative director responsibilities, however, in this case Rihanna is just on modeling duty.

Nevertheless, everything that Rihanna seems to touch seems to sale. Therefore, do not sleep on the Eskivas or you may be watching your friends walking around in them instead.

Personally, we are fans of the Eskiva Hi design because of its more modern feel and look than the average sneaker. However, there is a Mid style for those who are feeling the Eskiva but prefer a more normal shoe height. Check out a few more photos below and be advised that the shoe is available for purchase.

Vashtie Kola and Puma S/S 2015 Collaboration

Arianne Suggs May 28, 2015May 28, 2015Leave a Comment

She is an accomplished director, filmaker, artist, designer and basically Instagram royalty. Easy on the eyes and the very talented Vashtie has paired up with Puma to create a stylish collection for summer. The collection is inspired by the B-boy and NYC skate subcultures of the 80’s and 90’s. So think bombers, tanks, jerseys and gold detailing. The grittiness and edge of the collection was encapsulated by the shoot which took place around a downtown metro station in Manhattan.

Get Your Man Right: Pop of Color

Arianne Suggs April 24, 2015April 24, 2015Leave a Comment

The simplest way to get Bae to add a little more flavor to his wardrobe is by having him add a pop of color to his ensemble. It can be a simple addition that focuses more on his accessories than his main fashion pieces. For example, if he loves his kicks (shoes) or likes wearing hats help him punch those up by opting for more boisterous shades. Notice how these two NBA players are getting down with the pop of color. The added shades are noticeable yet not overbearing so that the whole outfit gets noticed. Make fashion even more fun for your dude by having him incorporate his favorite color or tint into the mix.

Fashionable Mention: Alexander McQueen RTW Spring 2015

Arianne SuggsUpdated on March 5, 2015February 2, 2015Leave a Comment

We like it, we love it and we definitely want more of it! This heel by Alexander McQueen has a lot going on but it all flows together quite nicely. There are cutouts, string lace ups, cute petal detailing (so perfect for spring) and oh yeah missing the back of the heel! Well not quite, it is there just not in the traditional way. Instead of a vertical heel it has been replaced with a curved version that is found only at the base.
