talk about excess


picked up these nike total 90s in Cannes. something about the orange coloring and the fact that they look like no other sneaker i know, except perhaps a soccer shoe.


these are the 7 other pair of kicks i wear regularly. there's four different types of adidas, two kinds of pumas, and one nike uptown (that's what we call 'em ova' here in nueva york). but just when does variety become a lil' bit too much?


these are the pairs i've probably owned the longest. they're used mainly for the gym, running, biking, when i do go to the mountains, or that weekend-go-run-some-errands outfit. there's a pair of reeboks there that i have no idea what the name of the style is, a merrell hiking/walking/running shoe, and a nike cross trainer.

i think that still being a b-girl and a kicks collector when i'm thirty-something is pretty cool, but on the real yo', methinks i have a serious problem. just don't let me near an eastbay catalog or the website for that matter.

Shoelaces on the side of the sneaker? WTF?!?

I like the color scheme on the Nike total 90's though. But they are kinda hard to rock, aren't they?

What . . . no G6 pink/white G-Unit kicks?
And where are the Timbos?
;^)

Not hard to rock at all. I suppose you don't wear orange?

Pink? I gag. G-Unit sneakers? I gag with my finger literally sticking down my mouth.

Timbs - I'd never include them with this collection and probably wouldn't even own a pair if they hadn't been given to me for free.

I've never shown my shoe or boot collection, but if you want to get a taste of the boots I rock, then step on ova to donald' crib to see. click here

and if for some strange reason you don't believe that's my foot, then click here

honestly, i'm glad to see a woman flaunting her PRACTICAL sneakers and not her (damn these hurt my feet all to high hell) jimmy choo's or manolo's. good for you for having cute footwear that doesn't require you to break your ankles.

Damn, Lynne, I likes those Nikes with the orange and the shoelaces on the side. I don't know if I could rock them, but they're different and I like that. I'm a boot fiend, but don't own nearly as many pairs as I'd like. Those boots you have on in the picture...well...let's just say you're more adventurous with the shoes/boots than I am. :)

Holy shiznit!

You are stylin' and proflin' with those boots! Hot to deff. You are big pimpin' with those blue Now & Later gators!

I also like your outfit -- trucker/cowgirl chic. And a throwback sheepskin coat, to boot. (excuse the pun)

You got some big feet. Nah, I'm just playing around.
;^)

You went to the Goapele concert?!
Man, she's a hottie. Oh, and like her music, too. (hee, hee)

Let's see some more gator boots.
