Gabriel Urist Asics Gel Lyte III

June 21st, 2010

The Asics Gel Lyte III’s have been arguably the hottest shoe of the spring so far. A lot of the heat behind the sihlouette is due to Ronnie Fieg’s special designs on the III’s. Fieg’s assistant recently got the talented Gabriel Urist to make a 1 of 1 chain based on the sneaker for the designers birthday.

As usual Gabriel came with it. If you are not hip to his designs do your research, he’s ill.

Happy Belated to Ronnie Fieg. Keep the hot kicks coming.

“She rides with me/ The new Bobby and Whitney/
Only time we don’t speak is during Sex and the City/
She gets Carrie fever/ But soon as the show’s over/
She’s right back to being my soldier…” -Jay-Z

Seriously guys, that sequel to the uber-popular Sex In The City, is in theatre’s this month, and you should be briefed on what your lady will be requesting after seeing the film. At least, you ought to have some idea of what new designer pieces are getting her all hot and bothered. So pay attention.

Her mission is to create beauty in utilizing natural, untreated materials and fine stones such as diamonds, pearls and emeralds. Peep the sparkly hoops Carrie’s rocking in the pic.

Nancy Gonzalez has been around for a minute designing these beautiful handcrafted purses. She obviously loves the texture of animal skin. Her croc bags are sold everywhere from Bergdorf Goodman to Saks, and now her popularity is on the verge of sky rocketing with her East West Leaf Tote making its appearance on SITC 2, carried by Charlotte in the pic above.

Say what you will guys, but SITC is a movement, get onboard now and score cool points with the ladies.
