A Rock Goddess Shows Us Around Oakland

Sure, S.F. has its share of style setters, but these days, it’s what's percolating on the other side of the bridge (ahem, that would be Oakland) that has us taking notice.

Take East Bay's resident badass, Brittney Cade. The rock-and-roll goddess (Green Day’s Mike Dirnt is her hubby, so music is a visceral part of her life) is an inspiring mom, designer, activist, and gal-about-town — who also happens to have one helluva wardrobe. Yup, Saint Laurent, Kenzo, Chanel — gang's all here! So, as we do, we tapped the style star to tour us around her 'hood, and it was good. (Spoiler: Our new favorite vintage spot is involved. Also: milkshakes.)
