Pauline Montupet on Jan 30, 2009 3:25 PM PST

I was on the edge of my seat when I heard that Jeremy Scott signed a multi-season deal with Adidas Originals. Best known for his outlandish punk-rock, avant-garde clothing and themed collections, I was excited to see what he was going to do for the Adidas capsule collection. Sneaker-heads and fashionistas everywhere are awaiting the first collection to hit the selected boutiques on February 1st, 2009, and in the following month it will be featured in Adidas Originals stores 'round the globe and online. The crazy collection features leopard print, sequins, fringe and, in true Jeremy Scott fashion, lots of gold. Highlights include some pretty fly gold-winged sneakers, a heavily sequined track jacket, and a leopard print hoodie with ears and a tail! These Adidas duds are definitely made more for the club than for your gym down the street, and are not for the fashion shy! Sneakers will range in prices of $120 to $250, while the men's and women's activewear will go from $45 to $450. Check out the slideshow for a preview of the fun and flashy collection!

Great Gift Ideas For The Outdoorsy Guy!

Pauline Montupet on Dec 17, 2008 10:18 AM PST

Shopping for the men in your life is never an easy thing. In the next week I'll break down some gift ideas for any type of guy. These gifts are going to be so good he might even think you're a mind reader! Got an outdoorsy guy on your hands? You know the type. He can't wait to be outside-- camping, hiking, biking are all on his weekend activity schedule. He loves the sights and sounds of nature and thrives best in the mountains or by the beach, even if he's a city boy. Get him some winter gear he can use on the slopes like some fresh new Anon Optics goggles. If he's a really extreme skier or snowboarder, an Avalanche Beacon is perfect for all those adventurous ski outings. If your guy is more of a hang outside type of dude, get him a cozy beanie or a portable grill with an iPod dock perfect for tailgating before his favorite sports games. As long as it gets him outside I'm sure he'll love it. Check out the slideshow for more ideas.
