Modern Classics

I'm really loving my neighborhood these days. Living in New York City is great and all but it is really all about balance for me being a former Texan! I love being just on the cusp of the action but not directly in the middle of it like I did when I first moved to this city. It may just be that I'm older [err, wiser!] but living in the Upper West Side, just half a block from Central Park, is my favorite nook of the city lately. 

The old brownstones, [sometimes] quiet tree lined streets, and my favorite bodega where they know my order as soon as I walk in the door are just a few of the reason why I love walking these streets of the UWS. As you can see from the first picture above, even the bluebird - the New York State bird - photo-bombing me in the background loves my hood... or maybe my new blue Simon Miller for Volley Australia kicks caught his eye!

I first spotted these kicks over the summer when the collaboration launched so when Volley Australia reached out to send me over a pair from the collection, I jumped at getting my hands on them. I've loved the Volley Australia brand for a while now - the classic appeal with a modern twist of every style always has me convinced it's time for a new pair! 

This Simon Miller for Volley Australia collection mixed Japanese fabrics and indigo dyes - as Simon Miller is known for - to create a whole new mood to the brands iconic style. The collaboration collection may be over for now but trust me, there are tons of new styles to choose from! Head on over to the Volley Australia website and discover some for yourself... and really, you can not beat the price so buy multiples and start a collection of your own!
