karla with karlas closet for coach clutch
started following the beautiful @karla_deras blog, karlas closet, a couple of years agoduring my fashion blog addiction phase. its inspiring seeing seemingly regular girls take the craft of blogging and capitalize off of the opportunity presented. such as how karla and a couple of fellow bloggers did by partnering with brand giant coach to create a line of bags. its awesome seeing ladies with vision turn their passions into full-fledged business. congrats to karla and the team.
p.s.i need this clutch in my life.now.

janelle monae x bet awards 2010
kind of proud to say ive been hip on miss janelle monae, and her bringing back the oxford, prior to her break out performance at this year's black entertainment television awards in which she participated in a prince tribute. a performance that surely was to bring her name to the masses. she's been somewhat of an underground artist though with the quite following. she's a powerhouse talent with a style and a unique presence that she completely owns. so i present to you...janelle monae.
janelle was the first performer. but keep watching to see the ever so talented esperanza spalding and alicia keys.

arrivederci!
"This album is truly representative of a shift in culture and clever musicianship. I was blown away by the drifting chord progressions and catchy melodies. Excellent album. Superb lyrics. I highly recommend it to all." -iTunes review by jahndy
in june 2009, arrivederci released, goodbye, a melting pot of sounds including heavy instrumentals, spoken word, a breathtaking violin solo, a tear jerker or two and lyrics written by the band members themselves further proving this is music. currently working on their next album, arrivederci continues to break the mold and gives this generation something original.

what he shoulda got me
...if there was a he. er. dont usually like all the vday themed sneaks that pop up around the "holiday". but between the silhouette of the greek goddess nike & the poem. saw these and swooned :now.
to lov is to breathe/with each inhale, i pause to experience/a state of pure bliss/with each exhale, i smile knowing that/my foundation is sound/with each step, i walk as if im on air/flying through time as a winged/angel i spread my wings/to experience freedom the freedom/to experience what is a divine/state of mind/the inexplicable nature of lov

lets share some numbers:
human trafficking is something we dont talk about. yet we have heard. is it too uncomfortable, or is it that its only happening in these far away places. last week in palm beach county, a house was raided for being used as a brothel for women who were brought into the u.s. to work as sex slaves. one young woman was brought into the u.s. at the age of 14 and was transported from atlanta, to new york and various "hotspots in florida. girls as young as 7 are being sold on "menus" in cambodia and thailand as they watch cartoons in matching red dresses behind glass walls. this is happening in neighborhoods all across the united states. in our backyards. and we can not stay silent any longer. these are our sisters. and our brothers. our children. and when they have lost their voice. we must scream and fight. for justice.
27 million people are enslaved around the world today
80% of them are children and women
every 30 seconds someone is sold
florida [my home state] is #2 in the nation in human trafficking
