Good afternoon, Friday. Welp I went back to work today and it's busy, busy in that September way that many of you in advertising know all about. Being busy is never bad, and what's even better is not feeling like a wrung out q tip. I'm alive, I'm not feverish, and being able to work after feeling so terrible just a few short days ago is pretty miraculous. I'm happy to be back.
And speaking of being back, I saw an awesome poster for Stan Smiths today (you know the green backed Adidas we have all owned) while coming to work. I love a throwback, and the celebration of this classic kick put me in just the right mood today. Just in time for the US Open, the Fader announced their awesome arrival stateside at Barney's Madison Avenue right now. I'm just gonna say it- I could crush on a boy who wears these, and though I only crush on one boy these days- the rest of you out there should rock these. If you're cool and skinny put 'em with black trousers and a pressed whiter than white button down- if you're more kick back wear them with a rolled jean and a tee or a little preppy sweater action and you're breaking hearts just like that.
I have a thing for a preppy classic mixed in with a little edge. And since I'm back in the saddle, I'm super happy to see these guys are too. Oh, and girls don't be shy. These are super cute for you too- if you can pull them off with a little dress or skirt with the aforementioned white button down or with double denim, you may break a few hearts of your own.
Cause that's what's up this classic Friday in the 212. Tennis anyone? XO
(PS I know it's Fashion Week but I'm apathetic. I'm just trying to stay alive over here- I'll hop onboard that train at some point).
