If you missed out on the Nordstrom party Thursday, you’re going to have a serious FOMO moment here…but it’s okay because you can relive it right now.

If you missed out on the Nordstrom party Thursday, you’re going to have a serious FOMO moment here…but it’s okay because you can relive it right now.

If you’ve never heard of Samantha Sleeper, I suggest you pay attention (and if you have then you’re going to be really excited about what I have to say). The talented designer (who happens to be a fellow North Shore fashion enthusiast) now resides in New York BUT she’s bringing something very special to Chicago.

Now that voting is over for Nordstrom’s YOUphoria Fashion Face-Off (which by the way, thank you if you voted for me…if not, I won’t hold it against you) don’t you want to know who won?

We are no longer in the days of buying “outfits.” We find some pieces we like and figure out how to incorporate them into our wardrobe. Every once in a while though, I happen to try on a full look and I’m just like whoa…I dig this. Well, Nordstrom totally understands this moment, which is why they created their new YOUphoria campaign.

While browsing one of my favorite sites, ssense, last week I came across something crazy and I just had to know more. I tweeted about my discovery — platform sneakers (can they be the new wedge sneaker?) — and although I don’t expect everyone to go buy a pair right this second, you at least have to appreciate them.
So you’re probably thinking…who is the genius (or geniuses) behind those badass sneakers? Let’s take a trip across the pond and discover KTZ.
