Since now you know Ronnie Fieg & Kith…Check out the #ECP

The creative talent Ronnie Fieg awes us yet again.

As many of you know I am a huge fan of collaborations, thus I am super hyped about the latest from Ronnie Fieg. The newest collab on deck is quite a full plate. The Kith East Coast Project is a capsule collection which includes Ronnie Fieg X ASICS GEL Lyte III, headwear, shirts, outerwear, luggage and eyewear…all which feature team colors from ‘New York City’ and ‘Miami Beach.’

According to the Ronnie Fieg Blog, partners in the #ECP include: “Play Cloths, Just Don, Golden Bear, Stance, Stampd, Herschel Supply Co. and Tina Catherine have all worked closely with Kith to create this carefully curated range of ‘New York City’ and ‘Miami Beach’ themed pieces. Made to complement one another as well as operate individually, each item captures the spirit of the two cities on the same coast with very different paces, but with a shared taste.”

This launch is defiantly something to write home about, the freshness is beyond what I envisioned  If you are in Miami May 2nd visit the Kith Pop-Up store; or if you are in NYC May 10th be sure to head straight to the Manhattan or Brooklyn Kith locations on May 10th. There will be limited quantities available at the launch and we know the gear will be quick to leave the shelves.

HEATED SOLE SUMMIT VS. DUNKXCHANGE #PHX

HEATED SOLE SUMMIT

DUNKXCHANGE

Back to back weekends of sneakers, sneakers, sneakers!! Both, Buy/Sell/Trade events were awesome!! Both events carried several similarities including:

– Sneaker Exchange events

-Buy, Sell, Trade Sneakers

-Vendors selling streetwear and accessories

-Live Music

-DJ’s

-HYPE

My opinion…go peep out a DunkXchange event if you are looking for more entertainment and just a chill time. DunkXchange hosts all of the sneaker exchange necessities/ venders etc. They also provide alcoholic beverages and bring in well recognized hip hop artists to preform live. Several people that attended this event were not looking to buy/sell/trade sneakers and gear they went just for the entertainment factor (this can be frustrating for the sneaker enthusiasts that are attending for this reason only). All in all it is a great event that really zones in on the cultural aspect of streetwear and urban lifestyle.

If you are down for business then make your way to Heated Sole Summit. Heated Sole Summit was much larger, more venders and everyone who attended seemed to be there for the reason of buy/sell/trade. Live music was happening and tons of giveaways!! This was a great local event that definitely housed the purpose for sneakerheads to come up!!!

Heated Sole Summit // Come Support!

For all the sneakerheads out here in Phoenix AZ be sure to come and support Heated Sole Summit this Sunday, April 7th 1-6pm at Bourgade Catholic High School.

Heated Sole Summit is a group of Sneaker enthusiasts that puts on a charity sneaker event to raise money for student atheletes. You can buy, sell, or trade kicks from all over the valley. They have clothing vendors that will be showcasing their latest styles and selling them as well. A nice addition to the event is the local artists that will be building ranging from art, to music. An additional perk is the massive amount of giveaways and raffles they have to offer…some of the heat that will be apart of the raffles include: Thunder 4s, Bred 11s, ASG Lebrons to name a few.

Looking forward to seeing all you sneaker freakers out here this weekend! Remember, If you haven’t copped your tickets already cop them here!

Allow me to Introduce You…. doubledosed

Through the Eyes…

Of Identical Twins

The Day and the Life

doubledosed

Ever wondered what it would be like to live your life as a twin? What would the thought process be like living ONE day as a twin? Are twins truly born with similar desires and interests? These are just a few questions I have when I think of living life as an identical twin.

Allow me to introduce you… to my personal friends as well as identical twins, Erin and Lanni, who launched the blog doubledosed in September 2012. The basis of doubledosed is to explore the curious life of a twin, from both sides. What was the motivation for doubledosed? Erin and Lanni shared with me that wherever they go they are constantly bombarded with questions about living life as an identical twin. As some might begin to get annoyed with the constant questions these women love it and it spun the idea of, why not share with the world what it is like to live our life as a twin? In addition, Erin share with me that the “The questions never get old and we never get sick of talking about it and sharing. People have always had a fascination with twins, we’re freaks of nature! And that’s just what our blog is, an insight into the curious life of a twin, from both sides.”

Since I have known both Erin and Lanni they have always been fashion forward. Not just trendy, but setting trends and creating their own style of fashion. Their fashion style is bold, daring and creative.  doubledosed does not only engage readers in their fabulous life as twins, but it explores the world of fashion. Sharing fashion ideas, what they are into at the current moment, as well as what is trendy.  Currently, their focus is on the jewelry line they recently launched doubledosed jewelry. The jewelry line has allowed them to delve into the creative world and make it something they can do everyday and eventually make a living doing it. Currently, they are producing and selling the current craze… wrap bracelets, which they prefer to call “Arm Swag.” You can view their “Arm Swag” on Instagram @doubledosed or on their blog at doubledosed.com. For pricing inquiries please e-mail doubledosedjewelry@gmail.com. doubledosed jewelry will eventually expand from wrap bracelets to other types of bracelets and jewelry pieces as well.

Don’t miss out on exploring the curious life of a twin, from both sides and the fashionable life of a twin, from both sides. Lastly, make sure you check out that awesome “Arm Swag.”  Nothing excites me more than to see people follow their dreams, be happy and do what they love.
