Looks for Less

Reds
Hey loveys!! I love fashion & haute couture but I'm not always excited about paying those high prices! & just when I'm about to break down & sound $$$$ on this or that, I visit a store/site that's up on the trends & a lot nicer to my pockets.

Naked Black Justice

Pinks
I haven't seen anything about this in a minute but I wanted to stir it up again and fill you all in on it. Based on the saying "dont judge a book by it's cover" and fueled by the Trayvon Martin case in Florida, Atlanta photographer and CEO of Noire 3000 created his campaign Naked Black Justice to bring to light the injustice African Americans are still facing today.

I told you guys I would change the name of this segment!! While I do feel like a creeper calling myself a stalker but hey, the truth is the truth. Lol!
