Ladies Mobile Player


Fash Addix

KASHI KICKS are a in your face kind of brand competing with designers such as Ed Hardy as they incorporate graffitti/odd prints on their footwear and accessories too. They are on the right track! However, while some of their items are cute, others are all over the place. They need to tone it down with the prints and add more stylish sophisticated motifs. A brand should be daring, but NOT lack luster. AK Piano-09 pink sneaker $99.00 at Kashi

We Love Kicks

Recently I was approached by a few people over at http://www.kashikicks.com/ wondering how they could be featured on We Love Kicks. Needless to say, I was honored that they were interested in using my site to gain some exposure. I simply requested they send me a pair of their shoes to test out and give a review on. They kindly accepted.


The particular sneaker that I was interested was the "Mobile Player Generation 2", as it's called on their site. Upon inspection, I noticed this shoe was a combination of comfort and style. Theyre a lightweight, sleek, casual looking shoe with an air bubble to the near and velcro strapped on the upper. They have a material most of us know as "3M", which is a reflective material (like what you see on the green bean Jordan V's). I like the use of the different materials, because its not too over the top, but still fun and stylish at the same time.

Kashi Kicks has alot of different styles of kicks to choose from. So head over and check out their site. Get ready to see some sneakers like you've never seen before. Kashi Kicks is known for their use of bright colors and crazy materials, so dont be alarmed. Haha.

I'd like to give a special thanks to Jennifer and Alex from Kashi Kicks for contacting me

Shoes of the Day


Do your feet need more attention? Shoes of the day has the solution: you need a pair of Kashi Kicks. These shoes will leave most cars’ hood ornaments begging for more attention. I am not saying that people will be wearing these shoes dangling from a chain around their necks, because they deserve to be on your feet.


By wearing Kashi’s you are guaranteed more looks, comfort and style without an arduous “break-in” process like most shoes in this style category. They “fit” right out of the box and are true to size, with plenty of room in the toe box. I have been wearing and testing out my new pair of Kashi “AK-07’s” for a month and they are great. Here is the shoe review: Styled after the famous pianist Liberace, these shoes are every bit as eccentric as his wardrobe and on-stage accouterments - they even come with a candelabrum attached to the laces. No detail is spared in the construction from the leopard print and patent leather exterior, to the comfortable insole which is liberally layered with crushed velvet padded goodness - and did you notice the keyboard around the upper and mid-sole? Everywhere we go when we are in these shoes people stop me and say, “whoa! what kind of shoes are those and where can I get a pair?” Just today I heard, “Those are the coolest shoes I have ever seen!” and, “Those are funk-a-licious!” and one word said it all, “WOW!” If you have already read and heard enough and want more, visit the Kashi website here.

Who is Kashi anyway? I thought Kashi was some sort of a nutritious feel-good food. Well, it is if you are into eating organic wood and rocks. But we are here to tell you that Kashi means a healthy new look for your wardrobe, and take it from us, your feet will thank you later! These shoes truly shine without buying any can of boring shoe polish. Kashi has truly meshed together style, design, and a funky new fashion to draw the necessary attention to your deserving soles! Your little pigs will be saying “bling, bling, bling” all the way home from the market, or anywhere you go.
