Good Read: Uncivil War: The struggle between Black Men and Women

Author: Elsie B. Washington

(A hard find...LITERALLY)

An young EX-friend (who shall remain nameless) put me onto this book discussing the issues that exist in African-American relationships that too often cause their demise. Washington, brings these issues (relating to the media, slavery, and a gender conscious society) to light in a well constructed book that raises awareness of a fledgling predicament.

I found it to basically be a bunch of common sense, never applied to any of my past relationships, hidden in a part of my brain I'm obviously unaware of. Single..... Black.....Female.

Wo Hop Take out for 1??

Are you Working?

Last I heard, you were riding the elevator in search of food =/.

Poetry In Motion: SPRING into Fashion

"Pleats fan the body as the courtship begins.

Translucent peepholes and soaring hemlines conceal,
in order to reveal

Playfully masking intent and artfully
provoking a response

Perched high, circling in the skies

A sudden, monochromatic clarity comes,
looking down on graphic lines

A silent drama, set on pause, of static capes,
serious collars

and still volumes

Awaiting comic applause

The lady is born into the sky" -Gail Reid



















Australian designer Gail Reid, plays with words as beautifully as she does fabric. Her line, Gail Sorronda, forms a passionate affair between conformity and creativity with her signature Black and White ensembles.

Daaanng!

I don't do entertainment news but.....DAMN! 5 -25 yrs!? I feel for her yo........

Good Ear: Grind Mode

And since the Corolla reached its 100,000th mile today =/, I figured I should probably pay a visit. See you there Saturday =)

Good things = tiny packages

After spending the day at work playing chauffeur in a hot ass car, I assumed my day would get much worse, as it usually does. BUT a little something arrived this afternoon, that brightened my day. I wasn't expecting it for another week, so it was a nice surprise. Not one for labels, especially Streetwear labels, but this crew neck caught my wandering eye. A lovely edition to my ever evolving style. So broke & boujee.

One time for the hypebeasts? =/

Easter Sunday

Young, Fly n Flashy. It was too early for him

Fairly OK Mass, aside from how packed it was (had nowhere to place my clutch & Missalette).There was 1 thing tho, this little girl w/jazz hands would not shut up about having some chicken fingers after Mass amongst other annoying questions. She was sooooo LOUD >:-<. & wat did her parents do? Smile, while answering question after flippin question, Smh.
Alas, the best part,
The food.

Happy Easter Y'all. =)
