Dunks Be with You.

Last weekend, Jimmy and I went for a stroll down Atlantic Avenue. I have been working at Kaight's Brooklyn location on Thursdays for a little while now and as I walk to and from the subway, I noticed there are so many cute shops to check out. Finally, on my day off I got to be one of the strollers that I see on the outside of those big glass doors. We had a great time, laughing, holding hands, breathing in the fresh air, seeing the buds of flowers bloom, window shopped and even went into a few stores. There were 2 places that had influenced our entire weekend. One being a hoarders paradise furniture/hardware/gadget/can't move an inch store, and second being an awesome consignment boutique. The hoarders paradise gave us incentive to clean out the studio and bedroom. The awesome consignment shop is where I got THESSSEEE.......
Aren't they gorgeous?! These pretty puppies are the Liberty Dunks X Opening Ceremony circa 08', a very limited pack released for women.

Here's a lil 411 on the beauts: "Nike designers have applied quintessential British style to the purest of Nike. Fabrics from Liberty of London, draped on the Dunk, create a true clash of femininity and clean athletic lines.Liberty is department store set in a famous Tudor building in the heart of London’s West End. The Nike Design team selected two classic Liberty prints: Wilshire and Pepper, to create two limited editions of the Nike Dunk. Liberty fabrics are characterized by tender palettes, all over floral prints, and detailed movement, which is the perfect juxtaposition with the clean design lines of the Nike Dunk. These sneakers feature a gumsole and a heavyweight Liberty fabric for the upper which was chosen for its durability."


Just the other day I emailed my girl LJ (she is a HUGE kicks fan) to show her the new Nike x Liberty Summer 11 collection (pics below) as it came across my twitter feed. The more and more I stare at them I still can't seem to figure out which one I love more.. Ugh A fashionista's dilemma!

Which is your fav?


Dunks be with you,
