Finding A New Balance

Are New Balance sneakers the new "it" shoe...especially for men? I was surprised when I started seeing the colorful sneaks on street style blogs. Keep an eye out for these in the coming show season. The look below is a Tommy Ton photograph from Pitti Uomo.



Also, my new favorite time waster is designing custom retro New Balance sneakers on their website. One can even embroider the back of each shoe. My colorful custom design is below.

Fall 2012 Jason Wu

Gorgeous Jason Wu dress. The collection is said to have been inspired by his trip to China with his father.
