Fringuese features FSF

My Ewing Swatts and part of my collection, as featured in Fringuese

I hadn't heard of Fringuese before, but that's not surprising since it's a hot new "fashion blogzine covering the latest trends in fashion, style, beauty and lifestyle." For those of you who know me, sneakers are the only element of fashion I pay attention to. Of course sneakers have been on more than a few women's fashion blogs of late due to the popularity of "wedge sneakers." Founder Alexandra Phanor-Faury caught up with me and asked me about my feelings about these oh-so-popular wedge sneakers, so I weighed in. We also had a fun chat about all things female sneaker fiend. I could tell we had an ally in the fashion world! You can read the piece and weigh in with your perspective here.

Sneaker wedge trend: Already done before its begun

Two months ago I posted a sneaker option for the ladies that wanted a sporty looking sneaker with a chic edge. Which are the Isabel Marant sneaker wedges. Now since the arrival of this particular sneaker wedge other brands are hopping on the sneaker wedge train such as this Italian brand Serafini's which is a complete knockoff of Isabel Marant's sneakers........

And now Nike has jumped on too with their version feat. Liberty Fabrics.......

Now granted Isabel Marant was and is NOT the first person to do this trend. So I won't be one of those people who act like she created this look and everyone after her is a follower. But since she is relevant in today's age I will reference her sneaker wedges. I think its good that other brands are doing an inspired and more affordable version but I already see where this is going and the outcome isn't good. I know before I said I was feeling it but now, not so much. I am already tired of this look and it hasn't really popped off to the masses yet. I am still a fan of the Isabel Marant's version but even with her version I'm still tired of it. I am definitely sure more of these sneaker wedges will emerge from different brands in the coming months, which like I stated before its all good but I just can't. I know some you may or will disagree with me and call me a negative Nancy but I call it like I see it. But then again this is what happens with trends right? What are your thoughts?
