Healthy Glow: Healthy Eating, La Mode & Ramblings

Bienvendos! My name is Katherine N. and I'm a 20-something U.S. Diplomat. This blog is a mix of my love of healthy eating, exercise, ramblings and fashion. I started this blog because I am a certified wanderlust. I have traveled and eaten the cuisines of many countries including: Ghana (where my family is from & where I went to University), Mexico, the Netherlands, South Korea, Malaysia, Canada, Puerto Rico, England, Canada, at least 20 U.S. States, Mexico, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Singapore, Indonesia...just to name a few.

Fashion Attack! Ankara Printed Heels by Aldo

I love Ankara print (aka what most akatas/obrunis call TRIBAL and it makes my skin crawl) anything. I know that ankara print has a mixed history because of its true “Africanness” however, I still love it! I try to go visit Ghana (where my parents are from) every year to re-up on my ankara printed dresses but if I can get ankara products in the United States, I do!

A few months ago, I fell in love with these beauties!

They are the Aldo Mendosa Sandals! Let me warn you, these shoes are NOT for people who are scared of heights!

A lattice-weave platform perfects the tropical chic of an ankle-wrap sandal emboldened with graphic prints.

Adjustable strap with buckle closure.
Approx. heel height: 5 3/4” with 1 1/4” platform (comparable to a 4 1/2” heel).
Leather and fabric upper/leather and synthetic lining/synthetic and textile soles

I purchased my pair via ASOS (now sold out) after waiting for the shoes to go on SALE for months. I also purchased them when ASOS had a rare coupon code! But, alas you can still purchase these beauties via Nordstrom!
