Ice Spice Slipped On Brandon Blackwood’s Sky-High Heels to Rate Her Dunkin’ Donuts Collab
Pumpkin spice season is back — or, should we say, Ice Spice season.
The young rapper kicked off the return of autumn with a buzzy new Dunkin’ Donuts drink collaboration, and chose a dynamic shoe while calling on her followers to share their feedback.
On Saturday, Ice Spice took to Instagram to share a photo dump in a pair of towering Brandon Blackwood platforms. The “In Ha Mood” artist’s black suede style — Blackwood’s $200 (were $285) Harlo mules — featured 3.5-inch platform soles and wide toe straps, all set atop angled 5.7-inch heels for a geometric edge.
While remaining in tandem with her penchant for early 2000s style, Ice Spice layered her towering Blackwood heels with black fishnet tights, a pleated black micro-mini skirt and long-sleeved jacket — complete with a pale blue faux fur collar and gleaming crystal trim. The matching set was given a whimsical complement with a quilted black leather Chanel top-handled bag, as well as a diamond-coated curb chain anklet and the rapper’s similarly bejeweled “Princess” necklace.

In fact, the outfit was the very same one Ice Spice wore in her Dunkin’ commercials promoting her new Ice Spice Munchkins drink — a pumpkin spice-themed beverage named for her “Munchkins” fanbase — with fellow brand ambassador Ben Affleck. The duo’s appearance in the ads also prompted Ice Spice’s caption, where she nudged followers to “rate the ice spice munchkins drink 1-10”; comments ranged from “10/10” to “she a baddie but her drink not a 10.”
Ice Spice’s Dunkin’ Donuts collaboration follows a lengthy month of the musician’s latest headline-making moments. Throughout New York Fashion Week — which overlapped with her Dunkin’ launch and the MTV Video Music Awards, where she won Best New Artist — the rapper was spotted in the front rows of Who Decides War and Dion Lee (even performing at his Boom Boom Room afterparty)’s shows, in addition to hitting parties like SSENSE’s Jean Paul Gaultier soirée.
The occasion came full-circle on Thursday night, where she performed at Bose’s party in Brooklyn with close friend PinkPantheress — as captured by FN on Instagram.
When it comes to footwear, Ice Spice’s shoe options vary from cozy to slick. The rapper frequently wears heeled platform sandals and slick boots from a wide variety of brands, including Coach, Rick Owens and Marc Jacobs. Off-duty, she can also be seen in soft slides and flat-soled sneakers from labels including Adidas, Converse and Ugg for a comfortable outfit finish.
