Inkka Shoes - Lima, Peru

Happy Monday ladies and gentlemen,

I hope you are all doing well! :) I have been wanting to share a pair of sneakers that I discovered in NYC. I was out shopping with a friend, when we stumbled across Inkka sneakers. In my opinion, they were super cute, unique, and very trendy.

Although I'm not a HUGE sneaker person, I will purchase a pair every now and then. I believe my attraction to these sneakers comes from traveling to Peru and Africa, which had many items with a similar pattern as these sneakers. However, the store did not have women shoes in my size with the same color as the male shoes, so I didn't purchase any this time. My friend did purchase some INKKA sneakers, and I was super jello! JK. I thought they were fabulous!!! If only they had that sneaker in stock for females, I would have totally purchased that pair as well.



Here are some samples of Inkka shoes:
I know they look loud in these pictures, but in person they are really adorable. Besides, tribal wear is totally in right now. ;) I love these high tops! When I got back to South Carolina, I decided to do more research on the shoes. 

They were post worthy, and I wanted to see where anyone could purchase these shoes. That's when I found out they were for a very beautiful cause: http://eu.inkkas.com/pages/our-story, and they were made in Lima, Peru!!! (Hey, I've been there!) Not only do they provide work for the local community, they contribute philanthropically to the Amazon Basin. 

Recently, they decided to launch the « One Shoe One Tree » project ; a partnership with Trees for The Future that engage the company to plant one tree for every pair of shoes that they sell.  (It's amazing to see someone cares about God's beautiful creation...our world.)



Of course, when I searched for people who had paired these up with an outfit I found that not very many people can rock this look, but it's worth a try if you're very experimental & trendy with your fashion. For my gentlemen, see below:










 Feel free to visit their website http://www.inkkas.com/! They really are just so adorable, and I would imagine very comfortable. Who says your feet have to suffer ALL the time for Fashion?

Have a blessed day! <3
Love,

P.S. Like Inkka...Stand for what you believe is right, even if you're the ONLY one standing!

    1. Hi Pia! :) We have contacted the company to see if there were any Inkkas sold locally. Unfortunately, they do not sell the shoes in Peru. They let us know that they only produce them in Lima, Peru, but they did not tell us the location. Sorry! Maybe you could purchase from their online store? www.inkka.com.

Helloooo my wonderful readers! Hope you are all doing well this wonderful day that the Lord has made :) I have something new to share with you! I hope you're as excited as me :D "Cause it's time for Watches!!! Whoop Whoop! Raise your hand if you like watches! I do and it's such a shame I only have one :(  I think writing about them will make me feel much better...bahaha! Looking thru the Shoedazzle website, I found that there were nice watches on the website.  Shoedazzle watches  is the link if you would like to look at them AND they aren't too expensive. However, if the link doesn't work please sign up. It is free and you only pay when buying :) (U know what?- all these stores/websites need to pay us for advertising!...I'm gonna look into that :D)!  I don't know what your style is but I really like the watches below and I would love to have all the colors there are because then I could always match...YEAH! muhahaha!  Hope you liked this po...

Feelin' Blue?

Hi loves,  I was feeling a little "blue" today, so I thought I would get in touch with a little bit of my happiness...YOU LOVELY PEOPLE & FASHION.  This photo shoot took place about a month ago, but it just happened to be convenient for today. hehehe.  While this color of blue is a very much used during the spring time, I am a firm believer colors are meant to be worn at all times. It just take a little more effort to "make it work."  As I've stated before, these are my favorite heels. So, please excuse them for appearing more than once. LOL. They just love to be seen! jk. At any rate, you can always change an outfit by changing one simple thing about it. As you will see in the next set of pictures, a simple yet loud closed toe pump really does change the look.  The closed toed pump really matures the look. For example, I would totally wear this to work with a closed-toe pump (let's be real...I would wear either loo...

Bow Ties vs Ties

Hello to all of my amazing gentlemen!! As promised, I am making this post for you guys. ;) Based on our feedback, the topic for today was requested by our male readers! Thank you guys for being so faithful to our blog and showing your interest for more fashion tips.  Someone mentioned that I tend to use pictures of "model" males and females, and it felt unrealistic. So...I had a few guys who were willing to be our "real" life models. They come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and ethnic backgrounds. ;) Special shout out to each of them.  Ok... BOW TIES VS. TIES . What's the difference??????? When should you wear one???? How do you wear either one of them???? No worries gentlemen! We're here to help. ;)  Beside the obvious reason of difference in style, the Bow Tie has a long reputation of being classy, authoritative, and extremely formal. They have also been very popular for the southern preppy style. For example, bow ties are highly reco...
