EVERYWHERE—Not only is 17-year-old fashion blogger Jane Aldridge designing a line of shoes for Urban Outfitters, as rumored, but the first look is already online. The shoe-obsessed Aldridge based her designs on her own favorites for an aesthetic she's calling "sort of Victoriana meets gladiator warrior." What that means: knee-high lace-up peep-toes, pointy flats, and the gladiators at left. [Nitro.licious]

SOHO WEST—Tonight, Oak throws a party at Don Hill (511 Greenwich Street) for its lower-priced A.OK collection. It starts at 9pm, but band Led Er Est plays at midnight. Like the line itself, the event is proudly accessible: "NO COVER. NO LIST. NO RSVP" blares the invite. [Racked Inbox]
