Volcom 2 School 4 Cool Backpack in Black
and White ($38.99), at Guys N Gals, West
Bloomfield (248-851-1260).

"My kids love clothes as much as I do," says
Julie Feldman, owner of Guys N Gals in
West Bloomfield. Seth, who will be a fresh-
man at the University of Michigan, found
an enormous zebra painting and a zebra
ottoman for his dorm room. His brother,
Lee, starting his junior year at U-M, is dec-
orating his apartment room with a faux
skin rug to go under his faux leather futon,
along with decorative shelves and prints.
Both brothers have loaded up on skinny
jeans in denim, gray and black (Seth has a
pair in olive), plus skinny chinos, tons of T-
shirts, button-downs and sweatshirts, and
cool jackets and cardigans.
