Casual Friday: Studded Sneakers
Here’s something we don’t often discuss on HM: Sneakers. I haven’t owned a pair of sneakers for fashion reasons in YEARS. Sure, I have a pair to run in, and when they explode they become for taking the dog to the beach, but I mean sneakers for the sake of sneakers. Suddenly, however, I find myself possessed by the urge to buy a pair of these studded goodies you see everywhere. At first, I thought about DIY’ing them, but in this case the time and effort involved seemed a bit extreme, between poking all those holes and lining the results to avoid foot injury (Honestly WTF claims you can use E6000, which would eliminate both issues, if you are so inclined). Plus, the cost of sneakers and studs is pretty equivalent to the cost of studded sneakers. Currently leading the pack in the “Sneakers under $100″ category:
1. Jeffrey Campbell HOmg, $82.50 2. Charlotte Russe Studded Hi-Top, $36.50
3. MIA Daydreamer, $55.99 4. Penny Sue Studded Hi-Top, $47.99
5. Doc Marten’s Sostud, $63.75 6. Zigi Bank, $47.99
House of Widow
Crop Hoodie Pullover, $49 ‡ Removable Hood Tunic, $68 ‡ Pentagram Strap Cami, $49
There was some excitement over the hooded sweater featured in this post (and above, and below), so I thought I would track down where to get it. This led me to discover House of Widow, which has quite a few interesting designs, and is really quite affordable. Plus, the lookbook is lovely.
