Dim Sum

I know I love food but this post will only loosely be tied to my favourite hobby (eating)!

Last week, I arrived at work to find a rather intriguing looking brown parcel on my desk. After opening it, with a huge Christmas style grin on my face, I unearthed these beauties.

PUMA x Hypebeast Blaze LTWT “Har Gao” White/Hot Coral/Cream

The Puma x Hypebeast Blaze of Glory LTWT, with its shrimp camo, seeping out through the sheer upper, really do stand out. A perfect Summer runner, I can’t wait to give these a go (weather permitting)!

Something which I have been missing a lot lately, is a running shoe which is unashamedly ‘not super lightweight’ and supportive. When I was training on a more serious scale back in the early 2000′s, there was no such thing as barefoot running and we always looked for the most supportive and hard-wearing runners, to assist us throughout our training sessions and street runs. These are just that!

The Puma and Hypebeast engraved chop sticks with the dim sum steamer bag, really finished off this release for me, making them super special and extra tasty!

Big love to the Puma guys for sending me these, what a lovely Friday gift!

Roshe Run iD

I’ll let the above image speak for itsself! Finally… Now, is the time you can make your very own, totally unique, perfect pair of Roshe Runs!

 For the smaller footed fiends out there, you’ve got your pick of the crop with both kids and women’s sizes available.
Choose from a full mesh upper or add some suede, if you feel like giving your kicks a premium feel. I can’t tell you what colourways to go for but one thing I will say is that the lunarlon sole, cushioned collar and EVA foam outsole will all work together to make your feet super comfortable.

If you look through all my sneakers, you won’t find a pair of Roshe’s YET… But come payday, I think I’ll have to invest in some…

Get yours here and tweet/tag us in pics of your creations!

Yani’s Latest Pick Up

I’ve been looking to branch out and add some more brands to my repertoire and then these beauties caught my eye!

I literally haven’t been able to take them off, they’re so comfy and they look SO good on. With a similar sort of silhouette to the AM1, I found it easy to get used to looking down over these.

Adidas Originals Women’s Tech Super


It’s impossible to take them off, super supportive and really comfy! It’s frsutrating when the pattern doesn’t go with my outift! For once, the laces on these kicks aren’t massively long… Finally a brand has realised that smaller feet need shorter laces! Thanks Adidas!

Now to see if I can pick up the lighter pair anywhere!

Super Dupa Fly

There are certain silhouettes that catch my eye and when they’re teamed with a print that is irresistible… I’m in!

This Adidas release does exactly that! Check them out!

Adidas Originals Tech Super WMNS ‘Legend Ink/Aluminium/White Vapour’


The all over flock print in that luscious looking suede with the leather white stripes is a beautiful combination. There’s something so feminine about the print but the navy base colour takes it down a notch and makes this shoe perfect for a semi-girly girl like me!

I’m definitely going to get myself a pair of these beauties!

UK fam, head here to cop yours or here for the rest of y’all!

All Black Everything

If you know me, you’ll usually see me wearing all or mostly black… I just think it suits me better. Maybe it’s a sign of my ‘fashion sense’ maturing, who knows!

When these released, I was worried they wouldn’t be available for any of us smaller footed ladies… However, if you’re a UK 5.5 and up.. THEY ARE! (Unfortunately, I don’t fall into that category – iD possibly?)

 

Nike Air Max 1 Premium ‘Black/Anthracite’



With the all black upper in various textures, this shoe totally speaks for itself. I’ll let it do the talking! All I can say is, WHY AREN’T THESE BEING RELEASED IN MY LITTLE SIZE?!

Authentic Leopard

A few weeks ago I ordered these, unsure of whether or not they would look slightly tacky. An all over print shoe is something I’ve stayed away from as I’ve always seen it as a bit much but I’m a sucker for leopard print and I knew I could always send them back.

Anyway.. enough about that, here they are!

Vans Authentic ‘Leopard’ Black/Brown

Excuse the dirt, I’ve worn them a few times and it’s near impossible to keep sneakers clean throughout the London rush hour commute.

The print is subtle enough that it can bring any simple outfit to life. The classic white midsole brightens the shoe up but overall.. my worries have been put to rest, I LOVE THESE AUTHENTICS.

I have worn them with a pair of jeans and an AA skater skirt and with both, they looked amazing, the compliments have been flowing! Here’s some pics..

Get yours now directly from Vans or Office. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!

AM90 London, A Closer Look

Close friend of the blog, Bannerworx went and picked up a pair of the AM90 Londons that I blogged last week. He sent us over some pics so you can all have a closer look.

I’ll let the photos do the talking.

Thanks for the pics Bannerworx!

What do you think of this Air Max 90 release? Did you pick yourself up a pair?
