Stylish Design Is Two Shoes In One: High Heel and a Flat
Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) March 01, 2012
Baltimore native Sheena Young is launching “Nael Coce Ambi Collection”, a new line of eco-friendly high heel shoes that have a built-in flat shoe that are comfortable and have anti-bacterial features.
Young, a chemist working on her Ph.D., is unveiling the new footwear, with their distinctive green soles, at a launch party, 8 p.m. – 1 a.m. Saturday at the Milan Restaurant and Lounge, 1000 Eastern Avenue, Baltimore, Md. The $35 event will feature shoe giveaways, shoe sales, a fashion show and a performance by Mario, the Grammy-nominated singer who also is a Baltimore native. A portion of the proceeds from shoe sales will go to the Women’s Funding Network, a global initiative that helps fund women’s businesses. To purchase tickets, go online to http://www.naelcoce.com/launchparty.html .
“This project all came about one New Year’s Eve when I grew tired of wearing my high heels, but didn’t want to walk barefoot,” said Young, who earned her undergraduate degree from Spelman College and her masters degree from Johns Hopkins University. “This is the perfect solution for all of us women who want to wear trendy, fashion-forward high heel shoes and want the comfort of wearing flats. They provide a simple solution to painful high heel shoes.”
