True!
awesome-everyday:

So, this shirt is happening, right now. As I type this, somewhere, on this planet, this shirt exists. Perhaps, at this very second, a woman is wearing it… in a cold nightclub.
My nipples would destroy the very concept of this shirt.
Just sayin.

Idiosyncratic Fashionistas - How to Make a Turban Using Leggings MVI_0463.AVI (by JeanandValerie)

bbook:

 Indeed, Brooklyn’s Fort Greene, a former haven for black artists which  has been greatly gentrified in recent years, has become the nexus for  this fresh new aesthetic in black men’s style. In this bohemian  neighborhood, people are expected to express their individuality. Take a  walk in the area and it’s clear that something exciting is taking place  in the relationship between black men and their clothes. Whether it’s  dandified seersucker suits teamed with vibrant hued socks and brogues,  or a tailored vintage Americana look of leather varsity jackets and  chambray shirts with neck ties, not only are they showcasing their  incomparably cool personal style, but, by extension, these men are  redressing the monolithic concept of blackness and black masculinity  today. They reflect a breath of identity, gender, and politics, but they  all share a common obsessive interest in fine tailoring, fabrics,  textures, the men of the Jazz Age, vibrant hues, and eye-catching  details. 
 “I’ve been surrounded by examples of incredible black men and well  dressed black men growing up,” says Shantrelle P. Lewis, a curator at  The Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts. “The only image in  the media you see is of them looking thuggish. I think the hip-hop style  of saggy jeans and baggy T-shirts should be celebrated, but when that  look comes to define us as a whole, that’s when I have a problem.” She  tackles the topic of black identity and style in a captivating  photography exhibit that examines this current crop of gentlemen. Dandy  Lion: An Articulation of a Re(de)fined Black Masculine Aesthetic,  currently on display until August 27 at MoCADA, highlights striking  portraits of finely dressed black dandies. “These Dandy Lions are  saying, ‘I’m going to articulate my own black identity and swagger.’ ”
