Well, it will debut at their upcoming San Francisco fashion show party on March 17.

At the Hilltop Mall in the city of Richmond, shots rang out at around 6 a.m. An estimated three thousand were in line waiting for the new Nike's new Air Jordan 11 Retro Concords.

During a Fleet Week fete on Saturday, Giants star Brian Wilson made an appearance at a party while sporting a bizarre outfit. While the pic's photog (from Portal A Interactive) didn't grant SFist permission to publish the image of Wilson and his unusual attire—which, among a bevy of sartorial accents, featured pleather MC Hammerian balloon pants, a large gold belt, and two gold chains extending down his legs—we can tell you that the noted pitcher wore an orange t-shirt that read, "Fear the mustache," complete with a cartoon mustache and rectangular eyeglasses. more ›

In recent style and design rumblings, the launch of the new lookbook for local woman-owned Mission boutique and style house, Mira Mira, happened over the weekend.

A group of men attacked a fellow bar patron at a bar on the 5700 block of Mission Street for apparently sporting the wrong kind of fashion. "The 31-year-old victim was pulled outside of the bar by five suspects who apparently did not like his shirt," reports SF Appeal. "The suspects beat the man and also took his cellphone and cash before fleeing." more ›

Skullcap-shatteringly brilliant blogger Diane Dorrans Saeks just posted what could possibly be the most important lifestyle piece you will ever read. Why? Because it's about Denise Hale, that's why. And yet? It's also about so much more. Or not. more ›

Billed as the key reason why romance novelist Danielle Steel skipped town, the city has no sense of high style. In fact, GQ just declared San Francisco the 20th Worst-Dressed U.S. city. Which...fine. We get it. We do. We're a bit lackadaisical when it comes to attire. Or are we? By and large, the city's key demographic goes to great lengths to dress with the right amount of affected insouciance or brightly-colored wan. Nowhere is that more apparent than in the Mission arrondissement where men look like bike-riding sheep (black pants, black shirt, hoodie, Giants cap) while the ladies tend to fashion themselves as third graders (rompers, Etsy jewelry, hairdos riddled with flyaways, cupcakes) so as to appear nonthreatening to men. more ›

SFist was the first to bring you the now-famous spandex suit Giants closer Brian Wilson wore at Wednesday's ESPY Awards, and it was glorious. We don't know about you, but our appreciation for Wilson as a San Francisco delegate jumped tenfold. However, not everybody was happy about it. Broadcaster and KCBS commentator John Madden slammed Wilson this morning for his revealing attire at last night's awards show. more ›

Tomorrow night, Samantha Baker (AKA Molly Ringwald) will make a guest appearance in the city's Marina district. Why? Well, according to SFGate, "Molly Ringwald has partnered with San Francisco's Benefit Cosmetics to promote last year's 'Getting the Pretty Back,' her ode to growing old gracefully." Cool. Also, kinda sad. Ringwald, if we may, never lost her pretty. And she's, what, 41? 42? Practically still a fetus. more ›

You like? Of course you do. Well, now you can own this resplendent Buster Posey dreamcatcher (heh) t-shirt for a mere $20. True. The fine folks over at Mission Mission bring your attention to this shirt, created before our noted Rookie of the Year injured his leg on Wednesday, which you can purchase from someone named Nick at creamydesignsllc@gmail.com.

Danielle Steel, former San Francisco resident and vocal critic of Teva sandals, was back in town this weekend for the San Francisco Art Fair at Fort Mason. The Chronicle's Leah Garchik reports Mrs. Steel was spotted when she "swooped in" to the festival sporting an "orange chubby", which is apparently some kind of furry or feathery shoulder covering...and not what you were thinking it was. If Garchik's description makes Mrs. Steel sound like she is getting ready for another How Weird Street Faire, you'll have to forgive the prolific author - she did admit she looks like a mess when she's in town. The author later purchased an oil painting of worn out sneakers by artist Gordon Smedt. [Chron] more ›

The depressing story of 34-year-old San Francisco pageant mom Kerry Campbell, who gives her 8-year-old daughter Botox injections, made readers foam at the mouth after The Mommy Files brought the all-too-true tale to the public's attention. Kerry, looking to make her young daughter both famous and sexually alluring, "purchases Botox online and injects her 8-year-old daughter Britney with it." She also waxes her daughter's legs and bikini line in a chilling effort "to get rid of peach fuzz and to make sure she doesn't develop pubic hair later in life." Mom and daughter, named Britney (of course), appeared on Inside Edition today to explain. more ›

"San Francisco is a great city to raise children, but I was very happy to leave it. There's no style, nobody dresses up—you can't be chic there. It's all shorts and hiking books [sic?] and Tevas—it's as if everyone is dressed to go on a camping trip. I don't think people really care how they look there; and I look like a mess when I'm there, too." - Former Pac Heights resident and prolific romance novelist Danielle Steel. In a recent Wall Street Journal profile. [Hat tip: Refinery29] more ›

Kate Middleton and Prince William got hitched today. Did you watch? Did you cry? Did you even care? Anyway, the most important part of this wedding (nay, any wedding) is the gown. The Duchess of Cambridge wore a dress by Sarah Burton, artistic director of Alexander McQueen, with a v-neck and lace long sleeves. (Hopefully, this will put a dent in the overplayed strapless gown market.) SFist asked StyleBistro Managing Editor Chloe Harris for her thoughts on Middleton's frock. Harris tells us: "Alexander McQueen was the rare genius who could make a gown both majestic and cutting-edge, so I was secretly hoping for a McQueen design. For me, Kate Middeton's gown lacked a bit of that raw but intricate drama that I love so much from McQueen, but I think Sarah Burton did a wonderful job of toeing the line between Kate's brand of simple chic and the majesty required of a royal wedding. It was a gown fit for a modern Grace Kelly." more ›
