    The newest Sneaker Culture exhibition is not only timely, relevant but really special to me!

    My hand-poured Come Clean Pop Culture Soaps featuring Retro Jordans are now available at the gift shop!  We were the featured vendor at the member preview night. It was amazing to talk to the patrons and talk to them about my process, inspiration and designs.

    The Rise of Sneaker Culture

    JULY 10–OCTOBER 4, 2015

    Morris A. and Meyer Schapiro Wing, 5th Floor

    From their modest origins in the mid-nineteenth century to high-end sneakers created in the past decade, sneakers have become a global obsession. The Rise of Sneaker Culture is the first exhibition to explore the complex social history and cultural significance of the footwear now worn by billions of people throughout the world.

    The exhibition, which includes approximately 150 pairs of sneakers, looks at the evolution of the sneaker from its beginnings to its current role as status symbol and urban icon. Included are works from the archives of manufacturers such as Adidas, Converse, Nike, Puma, and Reebok as well as private collectors such as hip-hop legend Darryl “DMC” McDaniels, sneaker guru Bobbito Garcia, and Dee Wells of Obsessive Sneaker Disorder. Also featured are sneakers by Prada and other major fashion design houses and designers, as well as those made in collaboration with artists including Damien Hirst and Shantell Martin. Film footage, interactive media, photographic images, and design drawings contextualize the sneakers and explore the social history, technical innovations, fashion trends, and marketing campaigns that have shaped sneaker culture over the past two centuries.

    The Rise of Sneaker Culture is organized by the American Federation of Arts and the Bata Shoe Museum, Toronto. It is curated by Elizabeth Semmelhack, Senior Curator, Bata Shoe Museum.

    2. HUM Nutrition

    HUM Nutrition recently launched a 21-day detox program, “Cleanse to the Rescue”, that is clinically proven to support a flatter stomach, clearer skin and healthy digestion.  HUM comes with pre-packaged capsule supplements with clear instructions. All you need is a blender or blender stick to get going!  Lucky for me, I recently snagged a Vitamix off Craigslist and will be using HUM for my detox! I will let you know how it goes! The cleanse is available on Sephora.com now, and is now available in-stores!

    3. Origins – Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask to Clear Pores

    Screen Shot 2015-02-05 at 2.35.47 PMOrigins is one of my favorite beauty brands! This mask with activated charcoal is awesome to draw out deep-dwelling pore-cloggers. When environmental toxins, dirt, and debris get under your skin, its waste-filtering system gets jammed, pores get clogged, and skin looks cloudy. Nature’s complexion clean-up crew gets to the bottom of skin’s overcast condition and clears the way for it to act its best. Activated charcoal acts like a magnet to draw out deep-dwelling pore-cloggers. White China clay absorbs environmental toxins, and lecithin dissolves impurities. Without all that stuff down there, skin breathes a sigh of relief. Best for all skin types – Get it on Sephora.com
