Originally born in Washington state, when I was in the 4th my family moved to North Carolina where a lot of my style was formed. Since I could remember I paid close attention to both my older brothers and father dressed.

My father is still the cleanest guy I've met hands down, not a thread out of place. His style unmatched. Yea, he's the reason I do everything I do now. Him and my second to oldest brother were just as fascinated with clothing and fashion as I am today. Me and my brother closest to my age more so piggy backed game from each other, often times borrowing ideas from each other. He had more of a lose/ free style then pops. It looked like he just threw it on and it came together how it was supposed to. I, on the other hand am probably somewhere in between seeing as though I do care to take the time, but not as much as my father, who has background in ministry (makes sense). Recently, I got a chance to visit home and get a glimpse into how he was brought up, as well as seeing some landmarks.

I went to the space needle as a child but I wanted to go and see it as an adult, but you know I had to give them some style. So its time to determine what shoes and what better pair to wear to the space needle, I mean really though. Also, they feature the distinct purple and teal color ways that we North Carolinians take pride in so I figured it'd be a nice way to bridge the coasts.

Usually when I purchase any piece of clothing or shoes I have no idea what to wear it, which was no different in this case. It quickly became clear that the Diamondbacks was the best color way of hat to accompany the shoes but I still had no idea about everything in between. Upon further searching i came across this jacket that subtly picked up every color in the shoes perfectly, from the shimmer of purple and teal, down to the reflective bronze. At this point, the outfit has enough elements that everything else can be pretty muted so I decided to black it out with a pair of my favorite black pants (not jeans) and black shirt, seeing that this is the primary shoe color. It was kind of fun to find something to go with these shoes, I knew it wouldn't just be a simple task because the shoes really have a crazy shimmer to them. This is what I love to do though, I spend countless hours researching brands and trends, current, old and new and I'm always excited to speak fashion so here I am.
