SANRIO x DOC MARTENS
July 24, 2010
Some would say that Hello Kitty has been “around the way” within the last decade or so. I, as a loyal & long-time Sanrio fiend, have stuck by her side. The Sanrio x Dr. Martens collab gets someone like me going giddy. Hello Kitty celebrates Doc Martens 50th anniversary with a limited edition shoe collection, consisting of five designs, Mary-Jane style & the classic 1460 8-eyelet boot. This exclusive collection is said to hit Nordstrom early August in limited quantities. So keep up, I know I am.

Hopie Spitshard ft. Donwill – “Trunk (The Remixes)”
Wordemup. Femme rapper, Hopie Spitshard a.k.a. The Diamond Dame hails from the same land as I. With that, I instantly related. This track has Bay Area written all over it: the slaps, her Del-esque flow, the sauciness. I’m with it. It really takes me home.. Yadida.
