I’m not really a sneakers kind of girl. But I did go to the Converse party last night because a) Cute boys wear Converse, (usually). b) The Young Lords performed, and we like to play groupie. c) It was at Florent, or the space that used to be Florent, and I was feeling nostalgic. d) Read more →
I have a pair of Chucks that I adore. They cost me $80 and I got them at a vintage shop after a 12-hour work day assisting a photographer. The $100 bill he handed me lasted for a whopping six hours before I pulled these beautiful black, high top Converse sneakers onto my feet. I Read more →
When I was in high school, the unofficial uniform for a lot of my classmates consisted of Birkenstocks, ripped tan cargo pants and your dad’s most psychedelic Grateful Dead t-shirt possible. I was never really into the Dead as much as some of my friends, but I did always think the little bears were adorable. Read more →

We’ve been discussing the idea of men wearing short shorts (think above the knee, mid-thigh or shorter in length) all summer now and we’re still at arms. Britt and Hayley both think hemlines shouldn’t creep too high, but just above the knee is ok. I’m all for them as long as the shorts aren’t too Read more →
Cumulatively, our office has interned at a lot of places. Important places. We’ve learned a lot. But we’ve never been paid. So if you’re searching for your second home for Fall we highly suggest applying to Converse’s PR office. It pays $10/hour and we’ve never heard of such a thing. With that luxury comes these Read more →
In one of the stranger collaborations of this year, Converse announces that their One Star brand will design sneakers exclusively for Target this Spring. The sneaker company follows Hollywould and Loeffler Randall in the Target diffusion department for shoes, and it’s interesting because really, Converse kickers are pretty cheap – it’s a little bit like Read more →
We’re still not sure how we feel about babies, but we really love their clothing. And if you have someone really tiny on your holiday shopping list, we already know there’s a really good chance you’re going to get them baby socks.
