Leighton Meester at LFL in NYC tomorrow!
Every now and then a celebrity-sneaker partnership comes along that makes sense. No, I'm not talking abut Snoop Dogg and his Pony's. But I can actually picture Leighton Meester (of Gossip Girl fame) rocking these cute, retro-style Reebok Top Downs, can't you? (Though she'd definitely be wearing an ipod not lugging a boombox, let's be real...) For Leighton fans, the new face of Reebok is going to be signing autographs and hanging out at Lady Foot Locker on 34th Street in NYC tomorrow, Saturday, at noon!

Get Shamrocked!! Airwalk's St. Paddy's Day Slip on
Yes the title of this post is corny, but what are you gonna do? Airwalk released their St. Paddy's Day slip on and I know some of you are thinking the same thing I am which is "Didn't this come out last year?"
And the answer folks is yes they did. I guess Airwalk took the approach of "If it ain't broke don't fix it"....

PF Flyer's New Bob Cousy's...and more
PF Flyers are bringing the Bob Cousy back for Spring, but with some of the high end materials and fashion-forward colorways that they're getting known for (officially: Italian bead-embossed leather, metal woven mesh and transparent gum rubber). They look way fancier than my bright green ones... all grown up and ready for club-hopping I think. Would you wear them with jeans or a skirt? They come as small as a men's 4, so they could look really cute on the right foot (including mine!). $110.
For a little more casual look, you could go for the oiled canvas ($80):
And if you prefer a high top, the Center Hi's retail for $90 and are made of metal woven mesh.
To order or to learn more about their Spring line and materials, check pfflyers.com.
adidas All Star Jacket Contest Winners
Sorry for our delay! We received many great responses and heard about all kinds of wonderful "sisterhoods". What do "sisters" do for each other? It ranged from brute honesty "Shalonte is kind of truly honest and harsh with reality" to have-your-back lying, "Jess crashing her brother’s car for the third time and calling me at one o’clock in the morning just to get the story straight so that if her mom calls our stories are on the same page."
Here at last are the winners of our adidas x FSF "Sisterhood Contest".
From the West Coast (and winning 4 WEST jackets):
These lovely ladies I call my best friends, my family away from home and like my sisters. From left to right is Evelyn, Me (Gina), Alicia and Nel. We all have our busy schedules involving school, work and families but we are still able to be there for one another. We made a promise to never allow a long time to pass by without hanging out in a group, so we have a monthly activity just to make sure we get a good laugh in. Although we are four different women, we share the same morals and values and have been close for almost 9 years now; nothing can break us apart. There is nothing we don't share with each other, and we know that we are only a phone call/text away. Unique talents and interests makes us click and depend on each other. There has never been a dull moment and we are glad to have each other everyday. I don't know where I would be without these girls, I love you gals!
From the East Coast (and winning 4 EAST jackets): The BreakNYCe Crew!
This is my crew. We're 4 girls altogether and we come from all over: Washington, Michigan, Canada and Japan. But break dancing brought us together when we all met in New York 3 years ago. It's hard being a female in a male dominated dance scene, so having a crew there to support you is crucial. We train together, compete together, travel to jams together, buy sneakers together, laugh together and have cried together. We're a family at the end of the day, and when one of us has a problem, whether we can't get a backspin to look right or we can't get a job or are having problems at home, we are there for each other. We call ourselves the BreakNYCe crew, in tribute to where we met and live, because living in the NYC would not be the same without these girls!
And getting our last 2 jackets (one EAST and one WEST so folks can tell you twins apart...):
This is me and my twin sister. Yea we don't look alike at all, but we’re twins :) I love my sister to death because we been through many things in life. We really never had our parents to be there for us, so it’s been us since day one. So basically we feel like we only have each other. We help each other in many things from the simplest things to the hard things. Like simple homework, practicing for a softball game or like listening to each other. And helping each other on our struggles. We been through so much struggles on our life, but we stay strong because we have each other and try to make the right decisions to our problems. And that’s all it matters. And overcome them.
Runners up: The East Coast had most of the comp, and this was our runner up Emory team...then and now!
Thanks to everyone who submitted entries! And thanks to Kristen and Valerie at adidas for the jackets!
