Sneak Peek at Aerosoles Spring 2012 Collection

Everything She Wants is a sucker for a stylish comfort shoe, and my go-to brand is usually Aerosoles.  Recently, I stumbled upon the brand's spring 2012 preview during the Fashion Footwear Association of New York (FFANY) convention.

For spring, Aerosoles runs the gamut from office-to-brunch-ready tailored and modern styles to shoes in bright colors and animal prints.  A few fashion-forward boots were also on display including cute peep-toe, wedge booties and fringed booties.  The selection was impressive, however, I'm still in search of a replacement pair of my all-time fave Aerosoles' boots -- the Flamcoyant in black suede.

These knee-high boots zip up the back and are accented with tasteful brass studs around the top and up the sides.  I purchased the durable shoes about four years ago and literally wore them out.  And if it weren't for the holes in the soles, I would never have donated them to the Sally Army.

The bad news is that Flamcoyant is no longer being made.  So here's my plea to the powers that be at Aerosoles to bring them back for Fall 2012.  If they do, I promise to buy at least two pair so I'll have a spare.

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Comes to Brooklyn, June 5-8

Attending a performance of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater is always a highlight of my arts and culture calendar. An engagement with this awe-inspiring and genre-bending dance company is even better when they perform close to home at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.                                                                                                                                         Photo: Danica Paulos Ailey’s long-standing relationship with BAM began in 1969 when the trailblazing choreographer established The Ailey School in Brooklyn and presented his company’s...

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Graces Brooklyn Academy of Music, June 4-9, 2024

Dance is expression. Dance is spiritual. Dance is activism. Dance is life. I feel most alive when I am listening to music and dancing.  As a spectator and fan, some of my fondest moments of watching dance performances have been witnessing the dignity and grace of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. Every time I see the Ailey company, I am inspired, moved, and grounded in the beauty and complexity of the African American experience.  Photo by Paul Kolnik For me, the highlight is always "Revelations," Mr. Ailey's three-part ode to his upbringing in the Black Baptist church. The three sections -- "Pilgrim of Sorrow"; "Take Me to the Water"; and "Move, Members, Move" -- tell the story of African American faith and persistence from slavery to freedom. Over the weekend,  I had the pleasure of taking an outdoor Community Workshop in downtown Brooklyn, where we learned some of the choreography for "Revelations." I beamed from ear to ear...
