"I am newly based in Los Angeles but I'm from Seattle, Washington. I started working in fashion years ago in magazines. I started as an intern and spent the majority of my career at InStyle magazine…"

"...starting as an assistant and working my way up to a director. Okay, so these are the Air Griffey Max 1s and being from Seattle, if you didn't have these back in the day, you were not fly."

"It was all about the Mariners baseball so this was the shoe of our city, and this is one of my favorite, favorite, favorite throwback sneakers. I just remember when the shoe came out..."

"...when they dropped the next day I came to class. We all had it. It just brings back a lot of memories from my childhood. These are the Dunk Low 'Champ Colors' and what I like about this shoe is the colorway."

"When I was thrift shopping I found this coat and I loved it so much because I knew that it'll be the perfect match with this Dunk, and so I wear this together all the time. It's a sweat, it's this Dunk and it's this bomber jacket and..."

"...yeah, this is my fit. So these are the Air Max 95 Kim Jones and these came out, I think last year, and when I got them I was so hyped because..."

"...95s are my favorite, my favorite, favorite Air Max, and this colorway specifically is like an OG color way and this was the colorway that I had when I got my first pair."

"These are the Sacai LD Waffles and hands down, these are one of my favorite sneakers. Coming from the fashion world, the collaboration with Sacai, everyone was waiting for this drop."

"We saw pictures of the shoe and everything looked fresh, and then when we got them it was like, "They're here." I love this shoe so much, everything from the neons to the double laces to the double tongue."

"I just think it's a dope sneaker. It's super lightweight and they're very comfortable. These are the Air Max 90 'Radiant Red'. If I have to rank these shoes, these are my number ones. I'm ranking these number one."

"When you see this color, it's like Nike invented a color. I really like to dress this sneaker up. I have a coat that I love to wear with it. It has this detail in the coat that..."

"...this structure where it comes in at the waist, and so I think the contrast of a sneaker with this is really great. Thanks for watching. I'm Kahlana Barfield Brown and this is What I Got."
