What to look for THIS week!!!


I'll be bringing you a deeper look into one of the fun new trends in fashion footwear...vinyl shoes!  Plastic, jellies, vinyl, silicone...there are some real fun and innovative materials finally giving us that futuristic fashion we all wished we had when we watched Doc come back from the future with his transparent tie, or the sexy styling in Tron!
Zetus Lupetus!  Don't forget about how badly you wanted to join Zenon (the Girl of the 21st Century!) up in the space-station decked out in your brights, plastics, and metallics!
