STICKS IN KICKS

Hey Guys,

Today I'm excited to share my new discovery... wait for it... yes, sneakers! Big shocker I know - but for those who know me know that finding me in a pair of Nike sneakers is like finding a seat on a Manhattan bound 9AM J train. RARE! Wondering what made me finally break? Well it was the sneaker king himself - Kith owner/founder Ronnie Fieg that hooked me up with the new Nike Air Presto Ultra Fly Knit I'm sporting in today's post!

While working in fashion public relations you start to realize you're not officially a PR girl until you work an event front door and about two weeks ago I was working the hottest door yet; the Kith x Nike Pop Up in the middle of SoHo. Unfortunately - rookie mistake I showed up to work the event wearing Dr. Martens to a Nike event. oops. So I'd love to say I was gifted the sneaks but it was more like put these on in 5 minutes or die kind of situation.

But minor mistakes in your early career can create even bigger realizations. As I stepped my foot into what seemed like pillows on my feet - I realized sneakers were your friends. No longer was I just a publicist for New York's center of sneaker culture heaven, Kith - I was now SOLD too! 

This week I found in between a heavy workload and a humid New York Summer, today's outfit post is my new found way of dressing on the go for both work and the city in style. Seriously - I've knocked off about 2-3 minutes on my daily morning walks to the train ever since I started wearing these shoes alone.  I don't know what it is - but this particular pair has a support that puts an extra spring in your step.

Also - Special shout out to Laura Kepus at Turner PR for hitting a home run and scoring me this awesome Yankees Cap from 47 Brand that's my new go to cap - love! And if you haven't check out the Kith x Nike Pop Up shop in SoHo I suggest you do so ASAP - be sure to treat yourself with KITH treats while you're there. You're welcome in advance!

Style On,
Jenn
