LOL! No! 53cm is too tall for her! You should be able to stand between the bike without it touching your crotch and with the bike standing straight up. If not, it's too big.
If I recall correctly from our meet last Friday, a 48 or 50cm should work for her. How tall is she anyway? Fixies could be bad for your knees so maybe consider something else on the safe side. Also check out
BikesDirect.com for their fixies. (not local.) It's going to be pretty hard to find a fixie for $350 locally.

I saw this and thought of azncreations, woob and LiquidTurbo.
