Vanessa and Angela Simmons have launch their Pastry Line of Footwear.
The line features colorful, mid-priced athletic-inspired shoes in multiple styles for young women.
Each shoe will come with a tube of scented lipgloss attached to it matching the shoe’s theme.
Vanessa is a business communication major at St. John’s Univerisity, her sister Angela recently launched a teen magazine called Angela’s RunDown.
The new season of “Run’s House” will debut on March 23 on MTV, and is set to follow the creation of Pastry.

I am really proud of you girls. I have ten grandchildren, and I am hoping that they will grow up with the same drive the your parents have instilled in you. I plan on buying my granddaughters (4 of them) your sneakers for their birthdays. Your sneakers are actually going to be launched on the birthday of my 5 year old granddaughter I hope they come in her size is a 7 children’s, do they come that small.
God’s blessing to you and your family.

Congratulations to both of you sisters!! I am very proud of you Angela and Vanessa! I must say your parents are definitely stirring you young ladies in a positive direction. Angela I remember meeting you in July 2006 Time Square area) while vacationing in New York. You were so nice to let me and my sister take a picture of you and give you a hug. You are just as beautiful and polite in person as you are on Run’s House. I remember telling you to let your parents know that we took time out of our vacation and went to our hotel room to watch the show (that’s how much we love it). I wish you ladies all the success!! Please let me know where I can find your new footwear. Thanks and may God Bless!!

Congratulations ladies! Iam so proud of you girls. I appreciate your parents teaching and raising you all to be mature, responsible and most of all respectable young ladies. I’ve always admired Rev. Run for the unforgettable clean & fun hip hop music. Most of all MY ADIDAS and his clothing line. My daughters & I actually had a chance to see the shoes you girls rocked on RIP THE RUNWAY. We immediately went On-line to find out more about your shoes and magazine. Now my daughters will get to enjoy your footwear & magazine as well. We are looking forward to puchasing soon. Thanks for being such amazing , talented and wonderfully smart young black women. You truly inspire the young ladies of this new generation. Keep up the good work!

You guys did a great job with the Pastry Line. I watched the sneak peak show and was so very proud of you two.

Remember, keep GOD first, it works for me and my family.

Jovania // May 10, 2007 at 2:01 pm
Kennedy you come on the website to hate…i think that is not kool. some people state things because there dream is being outlived through someone else. i want you to take all of that anger and place in into energy that with manifest love and prosperity for you. they are doing them. they are not in the street and smoking weed and going to jail and trying to contest 45 days in county. they are not living off there father. they are not trying to be something they are not! there family is a legacy. i know there father and mother are like whoa. Look what GOD can do. I am not mad at them! PLEASE do not get it twisted. I look on a website and people were waiting for hours to meet them and buy there shoes in ATL. i have been to the underground it is not that popular. once someone has favor on their life why hate congratulate…i hope you place that energy where it needs to be and look forward to ways to make your life more efficient in GOD then hate on someone who is doing what other are not! they are working there GIFTS god has given to them.
JOVANIA!
