You CANNOT wear the white K-Swiss sneakers unless you're pulling off that "yeah I used to hang in the hood" kinda thing. I mean, I grew up in the hood and I still remember learning that K-Swiss sneakers were the cool thing that all the gangsta people wore. Yeah. Go w/flip flops. Rainbows are good. I'm always partial to Reefs but maybe that's a west coast thing? I don't know. HAVE FUN AT THE CHICKFEST!! Agreed with Courtenay.

BEN!!! white sneakers really work best if you're pulling the white gangsta look with baggy pants, you grew up in the hood sort of thing and yeah you compete in a totally yuppie sport but you are a skater at heart and you listen to three six mafia. if your flop flops are rainbows, i'd say go with them even if it's cold out. also, my brother went to lilith fair back in the day and he's still cool and the ladies love him, so if greg starts teasing you about your chickfest day, ignore him. matching shoes? like white sneakers?!

Besides, just because I'm male doesn't mean I'm not anti-breast cancer. Regarding clothing: I have no idea what I should wear. I'm leaning toward jeans and a white t-shirt, with matching K-Swiss shoes. Then again, it's really nice out, I could go with slippa's (mainland people not living in hawaii should translate slippa's as "flip-flops" or "thongs").
