[EVENT] eighty twenty trunk show -SF

Azalea Boutique, 411 Hayes Street, San Francisco, CA
Sunday, May 15, 1PM - 6PM

Spend the afternoon with shoe desginer, CeCe Chin and you'll understand why it's so hard to resist her handpainted canvas sneakers. The idea came from her observation that people tend to wear their favorite 20% of their wardrobe 80% of the time- and these shoes are definitely a part of the 20% you just can't live without. Come and see the ten sassy styles that put a sexy spin on the infamous "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" slip on. 80's graphics like rainbows and hearts grab that sticker collection within!

About Ce Ce Chin:
Ce Ce Chin is an accessories designer who's quickly becoming known for her signature cocktail of major-label craft and street-level attitude. Chin moved to NY in 1994, and cut her teeth designing for powerhouses like Calvin Klein, Michael Kors and DKNY. But all along, she felt that something was missing. And that something was the perfect shoe. The shoe for the girl who's finally over tomboy sneakers and skateboarder boyfriends…well almost. So, last year, Chin burst onto the scene with Eighty Twenty, her new footwear company.

[GUESTblogger] clasSICK

classick by vinh

greetings. i am your guestblogger for today. when it comes to fashion, my knowledge is beans in comparison to the lovely womyn who operate this sleeping beast & beauty known as *shopmycloset*. they know fashion from head to foot, spring to winter, homemade to haute couture. me? i only know fashion up til the ankle. kicks are all i'm concern with and anything else, my knowledge leaves me naked.

i love classic, but i do not like retro. i love the asics onitsuka mexico 66, but they begin to suck when you see 6th graders rocking them to school. i love the jordan iv, but not when you can find them in 31 different flavors. i love the converse all-stars, but something's wrong when the retail is $45 for a full chuck. in 2005, nobody gives a shit about 2005 shoes. it's all about the old school, about the kicks we once had back in the day-- shit, about the kicks our parents had back in the day-- about being trendy by being "retro"... it's enough to make me nauscious. don't get me wrong: i love the fact that i can still buy those shoes, 40 years after their initial release; i just don't like the fact that i can buy them anytime-anyplace, regardless of who's around. and everybody around seems to own a pair! the 66s, the ivs, the chucks, romas, superstars, dunks, rbk classics, cortezs, and on and on. i don't blame people for liking those shoes-- they all have a timeless shape and design about them. and i don't blame those megacorps for rereleasing them either-- those shoes keep the piggy banks supple and smiling. it's just that rereleasing all those shoes-- on such a massive scale-- the classic appeal gets lost somewhere in between the store shelf and the consumer's foot. and most people don't seem to care. (not that i care that much either, btw. just making an observation.)

the concept of retro is cool, but to ressurrect all those shoes, in all those colorways and to charge all that cash-- that shit ain't cool. it's worse than pdiddy hijacking a classic song-- it's american idol imperialism, i swear. fashion survives through metaphorphisis. it's in a constant state of flux, always changing, recycling, evolving. it's never held down by any trends, regardless of how prevalent those trends may be. fashion designers take from the past, snip, tuck, and present the products for today. they simply don't score a carbon copy and change the colorway-- that shit's too trite. but that's exactly what they do with shoes. something's wrong when you can buy the puma romas in black & pink and at any store. i mean, nice colors, but the shoe's tainted to a certain extent.

so stop it with this retro-madness. put down the crayons and rethink the designs. rerelease them, but on a limited run. remove this feeding tube called "retro" and i'm sure those classics will still have legs-- just not on everybody's legs.

that's all the fashion for this week. come again next time, where i will write about tommy hilifiger's daughter, about how she's ugly and needs to be choked.
