YAS Feminism!
As we enter into a new yet familiar moment in history, the opportunity to express ourselves loud and proud is wildly encouraged. Be it through activism, the power of effectively using your voice, or my personal favorite outlet, FASHION! Thanks to all the newly fem-vertized fashion brands we can literally do all three at the same damn time… Say whaaaaaaat?!?

Fuck Trends!
Winter is here! The season of caliginous cold weather, enabling months of typically somber winter wardrobe. This time of year has almost no solidarity living in Southern California of course; being that it’s pretty season-less. When it gets down to 59 degrees suddenly it’s a 7 layer minimum which should only be a rule for bean dip… dramatic. We fake the funk just a bit. Of course, we all looove layers (especially bean dip) and busting out the winter attire, let us not be so inclined to dress in drear or adhere to the seasons “it” items; we all know they’re just different variations of the same thangs anyway… No matter the conditions, your style can shine bright even when the sun is nowhere in sight! With that I give you: bikini tee shirt dress post fall!

Revolution Redux! Holiday Edition (¡Viva!)
Tis’ the holiday season! A time that brings joy, love and cheer mixed with a dash of pain and ignorant bliss! That is if you’re amongst the consciously woke crowd of individuals… Now I know that sounds depressing, but you already know the truth doesn’t always feel good. This is the time of year people tend to put all their long disputes and debacles on a temporary pause and indulge in corporate America’s economic splurge, which is understandable cause lawd knows the struggle is real and that shit is exhausting. Errybody needs a little break every now and then; a moment to catch our breath, re-organize and re-evaluate…

AFW Day Three!!!
The final day closeout for AFWLA was just splendid for me, mostly because it was AMAZING and I took away so much but this was also the final show night I’d be going to during this season of fashion weeks… Wheeeew! It was bittersweet, but honestly I couldn’t have picked a better note to end on. AFW was just the right amount of professionally organized, yet super relaxed environment that I for one was certainly appreciative of after a long ass week and a half of some crazy ass atmosphere! Banana sandwhich! So it went a little suntin’ like this…
