Sneakerhead Status

By Mariah Hicks on October 26, 2015

Hi fashion people! I’m coming to you this week with a subject that we all know and love— shoes! Finding the right shoes is not only important for your comfort and style, but also the look of your whole outfit. This simple accessory adds spice to your outfit and is an awesome way to show your personality. After all, good shoes can take you good places.

This sneakerhead is not only obsessed with shoes, but has begun to collect shoes from around the world. His latest finds are these Jordan Retro 13 low quai 54, exclusive to Europe.

“This is my most exciting find yet,” this Fashionisto told me. He continues, “Finding shoes around the world at the cheapest price is like a hunt, you are always looking for that one treasure.”

He starts every outfit with a pair of shoes and moves from there. With the shoes as the focal point, he tries to never take away from their shine!

With a blueprint of the Eiffel Tower, these special shoes run up to $800 dollars to be shipped to the U.S., while he found them in a small sneaker boutique in the heart of Paris, France for $400 dollars.

Today, he has paired his sneakers with a simple, long sleeve, black Nike T-shirt and grey joggers. He holds a relaxed look, while looking well put together with this simple, three-piece outfit. By having only one accessory, he has made the main focus of his outfit to be shoes. With this, he gets to display his favorite items and show his personality wherever he goes. His shoes are not just a collection; they are the source that keeps him moving.

This outfit is an awesome way to look great and be able to roll out of bed 20 minutes before class starts! The joggers keep you comfortable all day while also showing off the best accessory – shoes! This outfit can also help with the crazy Indiana weather by keeping you warm in the morning and cool in the afternoon.

How To: Have an accessory or shoe that stands out? Make it be the center of your outfit by pairing it with neutral, solid colors. This way you can maximize the potential that this piece has to offer without looking too busy. Plus, it’s a quick transition from class to dinner by just slipping on some jeans instead of the joggers!
