Nike Varsity Destroyer Women’s Jacket

Are you tired of buying small men's sizes on the clothes you like? Yep, most of us agree with that. Nike has just released a new colorway of the women’s version of the Varsity Destroyers Jacket. This jacket is cut slimmer to fit the ladies, and comes with the same details as the men's jacket, for example the accents on ribbed cuffs, collars and logo patches.
Now that they've started down this lovely road, please, more colorways!
Available now at Schuh-You.

Summer Sneaks - PF Flyers Center Hi

Available in 13 vibrant colorways, the new Center Hi kicks from PF Flyers add fun and flair to your cool summer style! This iconic 50's sneaker has been updated just a bit for today's fashionista while still keeping essential elements like the trademark ribbed toe bumper and canvas upper. I especially like how the laces match the upper keeping it uniform so your outfit can be mixed up. Get yourself a pair or 2 HERE for $50!

You'll get 30% off at a Puma store and 15% at an outlet. Not bad! It doesn't matter what brand they are, by the way.

Cali Love exhibit by Amanda Lopez


Amanda Lopez is a tremendously gifted photographer who some might recognize from her fantastic photos in our upcoming Girls Got Kicks book. Her ability to capture a person's spirit and sense of identity is amazing.

Inspired by the dia de los muertos (day of the dead) celebration, CaliLOVE, Amanda’s latest body of photographic work addresses more than the concept of death. Instead, Lopez’s portraits reveal and celebrate the preciousness of life. The artist’s first series captured completely indoors, CaliLove addresses the vastness of human experience and individuality. Viewers are called to witness the unique reactions and idiosyncrasies comprising the process of living as well as each individual’s way of coping with the uncertainty of life in the face of death. Within each photograph, CaliLOVE aims to capture this juncture between life, death and the everyday choices that define who we are and where we are headed.

When: Opening reception: June 18th 2010, 7:00PM-11PM
Show dates: June 18tth – July 13th 2010
Where: Free Gold Watch, 1767 Waller Street, San Francisco, CA [415] 876-4444 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting [415] 876-4444 end_of_the_skype_highlighting
Cost: $0.00

PF Flyers celebrating the Celts!


As Celtics fans know, point guard Rajon Rondo passed Celtic great Bob Cousy for some big records this year, including most assists in a season. Far from being a hater, Cousy has emphasized his enthusiasm about the first Celtic to lead the league in steals. And in honor of the old skool great, PF Flyers is releasing the Cousy in a high top and the Glide (an 80s fave) in a Celtic green colorway as well. Check em out...

NYC: The Fiends Finally Meet! - Part 3 of 3

As soon as I made arrangements to head down to New York I hit up my fellow FSF, A the Great, to see if she would have time to meet up. I had been following her Chicken Under my Nails blog for a long time before I joined the FSF crew so I really have known about her for a minute. Erika (editor of C.O.P. Magazine) and I met up with A in Central Park in the afternoon. We hit it off right away, just as I knew we would. We walked through the park, vibed on everything from kicks to music and later had an amazing dinner at Thai Son in Chinatown.


I’ve gotta say, a few years back I thought it was a little weird meeting people through the internet but now that it happens all the time, it’s so normal. I actually think it’s really amazing the way I’ve made so many great friends through blogs. The common interests draw you in and when you have the opportunity to meet up, it feels like you’ve known each other for years! A-Money (as I decided I’m gonna call her) is super chill, really funny and an all-around dope chick. Now, she needs to make a trip up to Toronto. Get on it, girl!
