Urban Studies...

The new Ciara video...
SSsoo I like her really urban/brooklyn/B-girl (black and gold) outfit in this video. The bathing suit and coat was WAY too Beyonce and plain silly. It was simple and not overly vulgar or sex driven. I mean the song is enough.

I realized I don't talk about "urban" fashion much. I guess because I don't really dress like that often, but lots of things are really cute.
People seem to look down on "urban" fashion. Dressing urban/"hiphop" seems to ring low class. However, the black community in which this style formed from accessibility, innovation, and music has always been able to dress this style up or down.
The song is just fun to me.

I went to the opening of a new vintage collection called Strange Fruit Vintage, ran by Shalishah Petey Franklin, here in Memphis last night. It was a great event with an AMAZING Dj!!!
As you see I went scoping for great street style (which Memphis doesn't have much of so I HAD to catch the people above when and while I could lol). I couldn't stay for long but the last two pictures are outfits I liked the most(for ladies).

I still haven't officially meet Petey yet, but I know that she has a creative mind and loves to support the arts (she's not from Memphis :P ). But nuff ragging on Memphis, check out Strange Fruit blog @
