Designer Of Dreams

Mary Alice Malone, the very talented designer behind Malone Souliers, opens about her destiny to create. Malone Souliers is rapidly becoming a highly demanded custom made-to-order boutique style shoe company. Mary Alice started her journey growing up in Pennsylvania. A talented horse rider for the Junior Olympic Equestrian Tea, she then found that design construction was in her heart, and she moved on to art school. Through carpentry and furniture making she developed the eye for careful construction, which later translated into the tailored architecture and shapes we see in her shoes. Mary Alice and her Co-founder and fellow Managing Director, Roy Luwolt, are behind the label which speaks for itself. Malone Souliers makes shoes that challenge convention. Inspired by the endless possibilities of the cordwainer’s craft, our products find new expression in artisanal techniques, driven by a love of form and a delight in unexpected detail.

We launched in 2014 with a collection of women’s shoes that quickly caught the attention of editors and buyers across the globe. Our signature ‘Maureen’, which debuted in 2015, was an instant hit, celebrated as much for its elegant curves and distinctive double-strap detailing as its flawless construction and innate wearability. Since then, we’ve grown in many ways, expanding across the globe, launching new product lines, and creating innovative runway collections with world-renowned brands including Roksanda,

Richard Malone and Deveaux. But throughout, we’ve remained committed to our craft foundations, working with the finest materials and most skilled Italian makers to produce shoes that feel as special as they look.

Today, we offer a range of shoes and accessories for women and men, with a focus on an elevated style, a perfect fit, and beautiful silhouettes that celebrate the shape of the foot. A certified member of the Leather Working Group, we design and manufacture with a zero-waste approach, continually exploring ways to reduce our impact on the environment. We continue to be driven by the passion of our founder and creative director, Mary Alice Malone, whose background in psychology and hands-on approach to design brings emotion and integrity to everything we do. Our footwear is crafted in Italy, using the finest quality materials and is hand finished by expert artisans. Malone Souliers makes shoes that challenge convention.

DR. KONSTANTIN VASYUKEVICH

Facelifts have been around since the early part of the twentieth century. Techniques have advanced through the years, sculpting faces as fluidly as the evolution of time. Today, plastic surgery is as common for the everyday man or woman as it is for an A-list celebrity. Things have progressed so much in this field. It’s often hard to put your finger on exactly what kind of work someone has had done. Was it the eyes, the lips, Botox, Restylane injections? The tell of a good plastic surgeon is exactly that. Cosmetic surgery is an art. The doctor you choose can be more important than the procedure itself. It can mean the difference between “What did she do to herself?” Or “What did she do to herself!”

In New York City, Dr. Konstantin Vasyukevich leads the way in cosmetic procedures. He’s one of the country’s most sought-after facial plastic surgeons, specializing in the art of facial rejuvenation. His Park Avenue practice brings in a varied list of clientele from all over the country. As a doctor to some of Hollywood’s top stars, Dr. K is ahead of the next trend, working more as an artist with a vision for the future. His creed: Beauty begins from the inside out.

Making people look how they feel on the inside is what he practices. When someone stops recognizing themselves in the mirror, who can they turn to? Dr. K is there to help turn back the hands of time and gift his patients with the one thing they want most in the world: To feel like themselves again.

Traditionally, facelifts were meant for people who were determined to fight the process of aging. Today, the average age of people who choose to get cosmetic surgery is getting younger and younger. It is not uncommon to see 30 and 40-year-olds seeking to get a facelift. But why wait until you see the full effects of aging? Why wait until you’re in your 40s, 50s, or 60s? Today, preventative care is more important, and the trends across the country prove that. People start thinking about facial rejuvenation earlier in life. No one wants to wait to see the effects of aging. Could you imagine walking into a room suddenly looking 10 or 15 years younger? Everyone would know you had work done. While that was not unheard of in the past, today, people are getting a head start. Real art comes in the form of others not realizing you’ve had anything done.

You’ve Got The Look

While trends are different coast to coast, and the rise of social media comes with its drawbacks and benefits, the fact of the matter is, most people these days, male or female, old or young, have all had some type of plastic surgery. As we’re all discovering, prevention is the key. You want to combat aging before it happens, not after it has already begun to take hold. Most start with Botox to prevent wrinkles from developing. Others opt for fillers. Younger stars, for example, often choose to inject their lips and cheeks. Older patients may opt for fillers or even a more permanent rejuvenation procedure such as a facelift or a neck lift. For everyone, it’s different. What influences you, what drives you, it’s as personal as who you are at your core. Whether you want to prevent the aging process or reverse the aging process, there is always something that can be done. To find a doctor who can make the process look natural, that is the one universal thing that everyone wants.

Beauty is about inner peace. You must be at peace with yourself. Dr. Konstantin Vasyukevich’s expertise and skill provide that gift to people. When you want to match your outside with how you feel on the inside, you seek out the best. While new treatments appear and new approaches are taken, there’s one thing you will always want to remain the same—the results. Whether you want to fix a flaw, maintain your youthful appearance, or reverse time, there are always measures you can take. Dr. K is a Manhattan-based, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can turn dreams into a reality. Putting your face into someone else’s hands requires a lot of trust. If there’s anyone qualified to deliver, it’s him. His expertise is top-notch, and his results are unmatched.

Don’t forget that beauty is subjective. We live in a world where how we feel about ourselves in that respect matters. So, define beauty for yourself. And if you have any questions, ask Dr. K. He’ll show you the way.

Leather Jacket: L.Y FLYNN Jeans: Levi’s T Shirt: Namara Since 2009, Jordan Fisher has been charming his way into our hearts with shows like “The Secret Life of the American Teenager,” “The Flash,” and Disney’s “Happily Ever After” experience. “My general love and infatuation with television and film was a big part of what influenced me,” he tells INLOVE Magazine.

“One of the biggest moments for me actually came from a video game called Kingdom Hearts,” Fisher recalls. “There is something about the narrative and the collaborative efforts between Disney and Square Enix that built this incredible new universe and unleashed my imagination. It made me fall in love with music, storytelling, and ultimately, theater.”

Sari: What was it that made you fall in love with the world of gaming?

Jordan Fisher: I’ve always been a gamer. In the first memories of my life, I was holding a Nintendo controller. It has always been the consistency in my life. It has always been the thing I have always gone back to if I need a break, if I need a reset, or if I need a separation from work. Gaming is community, gaming is competitive, and gaming is fun! I have made some of my closest friends in my life through gaming. Halo 2 and Super Smash Bros. Melee were probably the first two games where I said, you know what? I am going to take this seriously. I am going to really try and get good. It progressed from there, and here we are.

Sari: Out of all your roles, which one holds the biggest place in your heart?

Jordan Fisher: I would say that I probably have three favorites. The role of ‘Doody,’ when I played him in “Grease LIVE!” changed my life. “Grease LIVE!” changed my career in the best way. It was a massive mile-marker that just launched things forward. John Lawrence, because John Lawrence/Philip Hamilton was my Broadway debut - which is also when I fell in love with my now wife. And, Evan Hansen. I’m having a blast getting back into the show. It is interesting how much we’ve all changed as people in the last few years and are feeling all of this material differently. Being a mental health advocate and being the first full-time Black Evan Hansen is an incredible honor. Especially being Black, with anxiety and depression, and being able to talk about that. Mental health is not a common topic of discussion amongst the Black community, and we need it. We need to talk about it. I love being able to have a real reason to be loud about it at the moment.

Sari: Do you have a daily routine to boost your mood?

Jordan Fisher: When I’m in the groove of things, when I’m at my healthiest and best, I get up in the morning an hour before I need to start anything. I am a morning person in general. When I wake up, I drink some water, have a quick bite to eat, something small and light, do about 10 minutes of yoga

flow, and shower. I finish the last two minutes in the shower cold – there is a lot of great study about hot-cold therapy. That alone, even if it is just 10 seconds of cold water hitting your entire body and you just do some tantric breathing, once you get out of the shower, makes you happier. You are happier that you don’t have this cold water hitting you. You have more juice ing routine. It is making sure that I have cold water hit my body.

Sari: What are some tips for positivity and productivity?

Jordan Fisher: Productivity is recognizing the amount that you can work at a healthy level - realizing where the cut-off is and figuring out how long of a break you need before you get back into it. I have watched many TED Talks and put a lot of work and effort into being a good boss and business owner. I don’t even like the word boss. I found my best hour of the day is the 8 am hour. At 8 am, I know that I’m going to get my best work done. Knowing this, I like starting my mornings early. I like getting a perfect one-hour-long, good morning routine to make sure that I feel good going into the day. Towards the end of that morning routine, I start thinking about what I want to tackle first, how I want to tackle it, and then I go into that 8 am to 9 am hour. At 9 am, I take a break and step away. I check in on my wife, I check in on the dogs, and I might watch a quick little TED Talk or a funny video or two on TikToK, and then I get back at it because I need that break to shake things up, to get back to work and be fresh. For all the students out there, figuring out what works for you—in terms of pulling your all-nighters, is not a healthy thing to do. One hundred percent, please take more breaks. We all must take breaks. That’s my big tip for productivity. I could dig into all the other little things like exercise in the morning and [more on] cold showers - but you have to take a break to be the best version of yourself. You must take a vacation to rejuvenate your senses and rejuvenate your passion for the work that you do. You absolutely must do that. You have to self-care - you have to get a massage, get a mani-pedi, talk to a friend, or get a drink with a buddy. You must find balance. Otherwise, you will not achieve what you want to achieve. If you do achieve what you want to achieve with a massive lack of balance, you’ll find that you are remarkably unhappy on the other side of it. On positivity, my best tip and trick is just shutting everything down in my mind. I get to the core. I start counting all of the ways that I’m blessed and all of the ways that I can be grateful for what I have. If you just take inventory of all the things you have and then recognize how easy it could all go away, your life will change.

and more energy to make things happen, and frankly, you get ready faster. You get ready faster, and with more efficiency, it wakes up the brain, clears the fog, and releases ketones. That is my biggest tip for any routine. Try it. It is painful. Don’t overdo it at first, do five seconds here, ten seconds there, and work your way up. That is my biggest thing in terms of a morn-

Sari: This summer, you made your debut in the Arrowverse. What can you tell us about your character for the new season?

Jordan Fisher: Bart is back and better than ever! He’s all about growth. Bart is all about wanting to get stronger, faster, bigger, and better. He lives under the shadow of his father, and I think a lot of people can relate to that in some way. Not
