Liberty Dunks
(06 May 2008) - After spying Nike's new Liberty Dunks among a blossom-laden display meant to resemble a flower stand at Opening Ceremony yesterday, this girl got an instant case of Spring Fever for the totally girly, limited-edition high-tops.

It's Pop It's Art: Imagine by John Lennon
(14 May 2007) - Someone once said to me if "Imagine" by John Lennon was never played again, it wouldn't matter, given how deeply embedded in popular culture it is.
