Miss Piggy Adidacolor

For the last three weeks I have been absolutely obsessed with one pair of sneakers in my collection - I keep walking by them, removing them from their Adidas box, carefully inspecting them, and putting them back into their resting place. I have not put them on for fear of destroying any aspect of their beautiful pink silk skin. Or is it for fear of being teased? After all we are talking about a pair of baby pink satin Adidacolor Miss Piggy sneaks. They are the epitome of all that I love - pink, satin, a beloved heroine on their sides. One of the many Adidacolor releases this year, these are simply adorable and yet almost unwearable. They evoke a sense of total abandonment to childhood (I don't know about the rest of you but I love the Muppets). They remind one of a certain playfulness that is lost once adulthood is found. Do I wear them or do they remain asleep in their box?

Blog Away - I am the Queen of Sneakers

The other day I told my boss a secret - that I had collected over the last ten years over 400 pairs of sneakers. Remarkably he didn't laugh, even after I told him that I was paying a huge monthly fee for my 10x12 storage unit where many of my beloved sneaks lay in their boxes (along with my other pairs of shoes). He said, "Wow that is pretty cool," and I happen to totally agree. As I go through the boxes that remain in my home I feel the thrill of the chase wash over me. Limited edition sneakers from France, one of kind sneakers by way of Tokyo, designer sneakers that are numbered. These are what moves my soul and fills my heart. This blog will honor all that glory in the sneaker, that revel in the athletic shoe, that honor the history of the greatest type of shoe ever created. So journey with me as we find the coolest trends out there and honor the trends that came before. I am the Queen of the Sneaker!
