Nike Air Rift Sneakers

This is a complicated one because of the SKIMS re-issue (not MY Nike Air Rift) but these defined my high school life because of the coolest girl I ever knew— my first idol, who I would have followed anywhere. Lily has been gone for almost twenty years now, but her style— ripped vintage tees with leather pants and huge men’s sneakers, or a 1950s house dress with her Air Rifts, her half-bleached hair tangling down her back, occasionally shearing it all off because she didn’t think about beauty that way— will always be the ultimate.
