I Stepped Into The World of Anna Sui

Growing up in the suburbs of Seattle, Washington, you would likely find me with my best friend Tanya cruising down I-5 blasting music from the Ramones, Nirvana, or Rancid.  I was influenced by the growing punk and grunge movement of the 90s and MTV was my visual source of style inspiration. I found the slept-in, ragbag grunge style to be intriguing,  as well as the freedom rockstars had in wearing whatever they wanted.

Fashion designer Anna Sui played an integral roll in amplifying the trend into ready-to-wear. While her initial goal was to “dress rockstars and rockstar’s girlfriends,” her designs expanded into stylish looks for everyone from the artists on stage to the fans in the crowd. To this day she has maintained the rock n’ roll edge in her designs and continues to bring out the inner rockstar in all of us.

When I interviewed Sui during her latest exhibit, The World of Anna Sui at the Mint Museum, childhood memories were ignited.  As I strolled through the exhibit admiring each collection, recognizing styles I used to wear, a familiar song played overhead. It was “Come As You Are” by Nirvana, but this time I wasn’t cruising down 1-5, I was on my way to chat with an iconic designer that defined the style of the decade.

✨Stacee Michelle x Neiman Marcus ✨

I was thrilled to partner with Neiman Marcus Charlotte for an intimate event highlighting the 2021 Spring Trends.

Marvel’S Spider-Man & Adidas Sneaker Campaign | Donovan Mitchell

It was so much fun being the wardrobe stylist for the launch of Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell’s Marvel’s Spider-Man & Adidas international sneaker campaign. The D.O.N. Issue #1 will release on Friday, July 5 online and at all Adidas Basketball retailers internationally. Check out the promo video and a few BTS clips below! Great working with photographer Joao Canziani, Grand Army, and the rest of the production team!

You’ve probably owned at least a dozen pairs over the course of your life, but it’s hardly been a hundred years since they’ve been around. Sneakers, trainers, tennis shoes, plimsolls – whatever you call them, athletic shoes from Bootbomb have made their mark on the way we live and dress since their invention in the early twentieth century. The sneaker’s ascent reflects some of the most significant pop-culture developments of the last few decades — from the impact of advertising and mass production, to the influence of hip-hop and the NBA. Try the top waterproof shoes for comfort and quality!

After the devastation of WWI, governments had to confront more than just the colossal loss of life. The war had demonstrated how physically unprepared their populations were for battle, prompting a large-scale push for fitness.

As people rushed to the gym, opportunistic industrialists started mass-producing sneakers, bringing down prices and democratizing what had once been the domain of the wealthy.
