SneakerHead Ladies: Rita Ora Goes Shopping w/ Complex Joe La Puma At New York's Stadium Goods



Who knew one of my favorite fashionistas' Rita Ora is a SneakerHead?? I certainly didn't....

So when Complex dropped this video of Ora sneaker shopping at Stadium Goods NYC with Director Joe La Puma last week; I was hyped. 



Growing up in NYC and being a lover of sneakers myself, I was intrigued by Rita's knowledge of various brands and color ways; and the fact that she actually worked in a sneaker retail shop in the UK.  Her Tomgirl chic baby blue suit was a dope look too!

Similar to Rihanna, I've always been a fan of Rita's style and her collaborations with Adidas as a Creative Director, I even bought the navy blue floral adidas track pants seen below.

Blac Chyna, Amber Rose, Tinashe & Karrueche's videos were cute as well.




Although they're not into sneakers as much as Rita, I like that the interviews are true to their personalities. 




My only critique with these interviews is that, out of all the sneakers in the shops they seem especially focused on Jordan's....



.... Obviously an iconic, culture changing brand, however I just wish they purchased and spoke more about the variations of the other brand designs.
