Helloooooo Ladies: Feast Your Eyes On The Limited Edition Va$htie Kola x Jordan Brand "Violette" Retro II's.




The First Lady of LiveStyle Says: I hate to say it but I am a bit jealous. I mean, who wouldn't be? The undisputed queen of the global "Downtown" scene, Va$htie Kola, just knocked out a major collab with Nike's Jordan Brand! That shoulda been me! lol. In due time though. Freind and fellow Livestyle family member, Rob Young (NOTE: Shhhhhhhhhhhhh! He's Chris's cousin AND Va$htie's manager), said he would never deny me of anything I ever wanted in life and I'm gonna hold him to that. LOL! K. Enough with the insiders. Back to the matter at foot ... lol.

Thankfully, Va$htie handled this one in a million gift from sneaker heaven with a connoisseur's appreciation for the classics and a tasteful eye for detail resisting any Hipsterific urge to go all paintball-game-meets-fashion color collage crazy on us! LOL. No, instead, the talented Ms. Kola opted to soften up this timeless silhouette with a very feminine (NOTE: But NOT in a faggy way ... lol) simple lavender accented by deep-purple colorway. These obviously über limited edition Violette themed Retro Jordan II's are scheduled to hit select Tier-0 account retail locations October 2nd.

Ok everybody, gather 'round, it's confession time. I, Aisha Ali, have never really been a fan of the II's. Wait! Hear me out. I always thought that they made my feet (NOTE: Which ARE small, thank Y.O.U. very much ... lol) look waaaaaaaaay too chunky; but that's just me. I know I'm not the only one tired of wearing my 4 inch stilettos. I'm sure some of Y.O.U. LiveStyle Ladies can pull them off!

Good luck getting your hands on these bad boys though, cuz I know hundreds of Va$htie's "downtown sweethearts"/cult followers will be waiting in line bright and early, from sea-to-shining-sea, like savages the morning that this dope girl fresh delivery drops! You've been warned.

Signing Off...

"In addition to the [Alpha/Omega Omega Psi Phi Air Jordan Retro 1 Hi Strap] that we posted the other day, Jordan Brand recently released the Shadow Grey Air Jordan Retro 1 High. An OG Air Jordan 1 colorway, the Shadow Grey Air Jordan Retro 1 High features a textured leather upper in Shadow Grey and Black. Although this colorway was an original OG Air Jordan 1 colorway, it's return is inspired by the Spike Lee's School Daze movie.

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Here @ Livestyle we are obsessed with excellence and exclusivity. The oh so precious jewel that most preprogrammed trendoids fail to grasp though is that, @ it's best, style neither has to be overly complicated nor carelessly contrived. Style is enduring and fashion ... well, fashion is not. Today I present to Y.O.U. the simple as a pimple yet über fly Air Jordan Retro 1 High Black/Shadow Grey "School Daze" Alpha Omega kicks.

These retros that Jordan Brand can't seem to let go have been previously released in a myriad of experimental colorways to varying results. Inspired by the black and grey colors of the Gamma-Phi-Gamma (G-Phi-G!) fraternity in Spike Lee's 2nd feature film, the classic 1988 examination of Black College life, School Daze, this latest drop is unequivocally good money.

Just in time for school, get your H.istorically B.lack C.ollege U.niversity steppin' on and pledge to cop yourself a pair of these reasonably priced $110 O.G. certified lefts-and-rights! We're kind of early for homecoming, huh? LOL. Don't trip, class is in session.
