Style and hip-hop are almost synonymous in the way they intertwine. Throughout the beginnings of Dapper Dan’s designer-influenced customs and even before, emcees have been delivering their lyrical flow, with a side of fashion, for decades. Lest we forget Grandmaster Flash making the Kangol hat the menswear accessory of the moment or how Lil Kim and Miss Hylton turned the industry on its head look after look. The early 2010s belonged to Kanye, who pushed for Givenchy graphic tees and leather joggers before ushering in A$AP Rocky’s moment of streetwear with a touch of femininity.
Unlike the early days of hip-hop, following the fashion of your favorite rapper is made easier than ever with social media. Whether you’re looking for outfit of the day inspo or a new designer to obsess over, today’s rap elite have the style, and Instagram pages to deliver on both music and aesthetic. Take a look at the rappers we find extra stylish and suggest you follow on IG.
It’s not every day you come across a talent like Lil Baby. Besides his energy-inducing bars, the Atlanta rapper knows his way around a designer sales floor. Baby is never too good for some color and leans towards monochromatic looks no matter how bold or bright the hue is. He’s never too shy to experiment –like with multicolor flare knit joggers– and boasts a pretty impressive designer shoe collection.
Even before Anderson .Paak took a trip to the past with Bruno Mars, he had an infections style that puts dopamine dressing to shame. The latest musician to partner with Vans, Park’s style can be described as an easy ode to the west coast and skate culture. That is when he isn’t head-to-toe in a lush 70s suit, patterned bell bottoms, sequin blouse, and a wig so good it’ll make your hair tech cry.
When Saucy Santana said that he’s a material gowrl he meant it. Santana’s IG is your go-to spot for a monochromatic monogram look or head-to-toe “Balenciaga that’ll turn you out, ochie walla.” While Santana is fairly new to the rap game, he’s showing promise with a few bangers under his belt and designer on his legs, hips, and body.
When it comes to style, J Balvin is known to experiment with everything from colors to textures and even his iconic buzzcut. Together with Spanish stylist Sita Bellan, Balvin boasts a look that is polished, put together and sleek without compromising on his love for fun and infectious personality.
Tyler the Creator has evolved his style quite a bit since his OFWGKTA days. His graphic tee collection once rivaled Blake Henderson’s before he switched to graphic camp shirts, monochromatic suits, and a blonde bowl cut. Today Tyler’s style is affluent with sweater vests, penny loafers, and Ushanka hats. It’s an aesthetic that leans heavily on the dapper 1940s traveler, and we suggest a one-way ticket to his Instagram to see more.
Say what you will about the YSL rapper, but one thing Gunna is gonna do is put a look together. Though he works with stylist Bobby Williams, both have reported that Gunna is the driving force behind his style. Always up for experimentation, Gunna often plays with proportion, surrealistic accessories, and fabric. From red carpets like the Met Gala to simply posing for the Gram Gunna’s style is a perfect example of how fun fashion can be when you style without rules.
If you’re not following the Industry Baby on Instagram for his hilarious stories and bts on his artistry, you gotta hit that follow button for the looks. Lil Nas X has captivated us with highly saturated and embellished looks since his debut on our social media feeds. With stylist Hodo Musa, Nas has carved out an aesthetic that touches on the modern Western, surrealism and even a bit of romance.
Tune into Shy Glizzy’s IG for versatility. The D.C rapper is known to switch up his looks, constantly walking the line of utilitarian streetwear and ‘fits riddled with color mixing and pattern blocking. And when you think you’ve seen it all, the ‘Like That’ rapper will throw in a selection of great outerwear from Gucci puffers to oversize Rick Owens parkas.
Smino’s impeccable style starts with his hair which he keeps as versatile as his wardrobe. His shift between braids, twists, and a gorgeous fro speaks to the ever-changing nature of his outfits. While the Missouri-born emcee loves a good NFL jersey (Go Cardinals! To be exact), he’s also fluent in cultural streetwear, groovy graphics, maximalist color combos, and accessories. In addition to his rapper-approved collection of bling, you’ll find a few pairs of enviable shades on his page.
Skepta is the rapper to follow if you like duality. The UK hitmaker loves to flirt between Nike-driven streetwear looks and sexy black-on-black tailoring. Occasionally working with stylistLeah Abott, Skepta’s aesthetic marries both sides of his word: Skepta that puts on shows and the Skepta that still enjoys a kickback with his Lads in London.
One thing is for sure, we love summer for the festival fashion that colors each month, the most recent one being Lollapalooza! The multi-day concert is held over several months, across 7 different cities, in 7 different countries: Sao Paulo, Buenos Aries, Santiago, Berlin, Paris, Berlin and Chicago. While some of these music events have already taken places, others are still to come. Here, we’re summing up a few of the most fashionable looks worn by celebrities at Lollapalooza thus far!

Are you curious about how cannabis has made its way into the fashion industry? Do you want to know more about the top cannabis apparel brands out there?
In the last few years, cannabis and cannabis products have become very popular, largely due to the legalization of cannabis that has been taking place around the world. In the past, buying cannabis was a very different experience than it is today. For starters, there were far fewer options to choose from. And unless you had a friend willing to hook you up, you were mostly out of luck.
These days, however, the availability of cannabis has increased dramatically. Thanks to shops like Grasscity, you can now buy your favorite strains and products with the click of a button. And with more and more states legalizing marijuana, it’s only a matter of time before the market becomes even more saturated. Not only has cannabis become popular, but cannabis products such as fashion and apparel have also become popular.
Cannabis has been incorporated into many different industries, and cannabis and fashion have a long history together that a lot of people are combining the two. Here is a look at the top cannabis apparel brands.
The Higher Shop Apparel Brand
This brand focuses on creative marijuana designs with hundreds of different options to choose from. Not to mention plenty of clever parody designs that are fun for any cannabis lover.

2022 has brought the return of Mary Jane shoes. These shoes have fast become a footwear staple in many wardrobes across the country. They are a practical, fashionable style of shoe that is known for the iconic ‘bar’ strap across the front.
But where have Mary Janes come from? And how do they fit into 2022 fashion? Here is the ultimate guide to everything you need to know about Mary Jane shoes and why they’re now a footwear essential again.
A brief history of the Mary Jane shoe
Before we talk about the current fashion trend of Mary Jane shoes, we thought we’d take a look at where they came from and how they first rose to popularity. Mary Jane shoes were formerly called ‘bar’ shoes and were worn by both boys and girls as early as the 19th century. Popular amongst school children, the Mary Jane shoes weren’t commonly worn by women until the 1920s.
Mary Janes were a common choice of shoe for 1920s flapper girls. This era saw Mary Jane shoes rising significantly as a fashion trend for women. But how did they go from ‘bar shoes’ to the name we know them as today? Well that’s thanks to the Brown Shoe Company in 1904. This company named their bar shoes after a cheeky cartoon character called Buster Brown. This became a marketing tool for the company and thus the iconic Mary Jane shoes were born!
How 2022 has brought Mary Jane shoes back into fashion
In a world where fashion is ever changing, sometimes classic styles are brought back and reinvented. Mary Janes are no stranger to this as this year has seen them come back with booming popularity, particularly amongst gen z.
But why have Mary Janes become so popular again? We think this is largely due to the versatility of them. Easily paired with tights, socks, dresses, and skirts, there are endless ways that Mary Jane shoes can effortlessly elevate an outfit. They also fit nicely into many gen z aesthetics such as kawaii and dark academia themes.
Revamping a classic silhouette
One of the ways why Mary Jane shoes rose to popularity this year is through a reimagining of their classic silhouette. Adding in modern elements to traditional styles is a great way to bring an older style back into fashion for modern audiences.
Here are some of the twists we’ve seen on Mary Jane shoes in 2022.
Heeled Mary Janes
This stylish rendition of Mary Jane shoes are insanely popular amongst gen z crowds. Mary Jane heels add height and platform to the traditional flat silhouette. As platform shoes are incredibly trendy right now, this type of Mary Jane followed suit.
Double strap
Another style of Mary Jane shoes is the double strap, which adds an extra bar to the traditional singular. This adds an extra element of sturdiness to the shoe alongside a slightly different look which many love.
Alternative material
Mary Jane shoes were traditionally made with patent leather or black leather, but many footwear brands have come out with different materials for an alternative look. A popular one is suede, this velvety material is great for a winter style.
Prints
Some footwear brands have even gone the extra mile to create funky coloured Mary Janes with wacky prints on them. This style of Mary Jane came into popularity this year and doesn’t seem to be leaving anytime soon!

OnlyFans is no stranger to a lot of us. Launched in 2015, the site did not blow up until sometime in 2020, after the COVID-19 pandemic put the entire world into recess. During these times, people, especially celebrities and entertainers, had to look for ways to keep their crafts alive. OnlyFans presented itself just in time as a medium via which they could do that and still earn money.
Today, OnlyFans is not only for regular folks and small-time entertainers. Prominent celebrities, from musicians to Hollywood A-listers, have also found fame and fortune on the site. The list goes on and on. No one is underestimating the power of OnlyFans. Misconstrued most times as a social media site for x-rated material, OnlyFans is far from that. Anyone is welcome to join and post any kind of content.
For all its worth, let us discuss some of the best OnlyFans accounts owned by our fave celebs of today.
Cardi B
First on the list is Cardi B. The award-winning rapper/singer has found fame making chart-topping tracks for years now. But in August 2020, in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, Cardi B took her heat over to OnlyFans, becoming one of the first A-list celebrities to join the platform. The rapper, however, warned fans from the onset that she won’t be posting any X-rated or nude content.
Nonetheless, that did not stop millions of her fans from finding her profile on OnlyFans. Initially charging $9.99 for a subscription to her page, the rapper later lowered it to $4.99 to make it more affordable for fans. Cardi B uses her page to give her fans some inside scoops into different aspects of her life off stage. These include her relationships, motherhood, surgeries, etc. To date, the rapper has made over $8 million in revenue from the platform.
Amber Rose
Popular model and former video vixen Amber Rose took to OnlyFans in the fall of 2020 to thrill her fans with exclusive content. She has personally described the experience as being in a “digital strip club.” For a token fee of $5, Amber Rose gives her subscribers interesting peaks into various personal aspects of her life that otherwise aren’t covered by traditional media.
She posts regular stuff in her day-to-day itineraries but still gives her fans some sneak taste into her erotic side. Aside from content that can be streamed live under the regular subscription, Rose still makes exclusive content that she charges fans directly to access.
Trey Songz
Famous R&B singer Trey Songz is relatively new to OnlyFans with just a few months of content. Signing up in December 2021, the singer charges fans $20/month to have exclusive access to personal content. Trey Songz is notorious for treating fans to erotic, raunchy content, from topless selfies to videos of him dancing.
Remember, in February of 2021; the R&B singer came under fire after allegations of a sex tape featuring him surfaced online. The controversy caused quite a stir in the entertainment scene. And when Songz eventually decided to open his OnlyFans profile at the end of that year, he used the saga to his advantage. Since then, Trey Songz has continued to give his fans just the kind of graphic content they look forward to.
Mia Khalifa
Mia Khalifa is not a stranger to many. The queen of explicit content has been on OnlyFans since September 2020. Mia Khalifa achieved instant fame on Pornhub as the most-streamed performer just two months after being on the site. The year was 2014, and despite the fame and fortune it brought her, Mia Khalifa’s career as a pornographic performer didn’t last past a few months.
Nonetheless, Mia Khalifa has since gone on to become a massive sensation in both the adult content industry and mainstream media. She brings her A-game to bear on OnlyFans, where she runs a Safe for work (SFW) profile available at $12 per month.
Blac Chyna
Last on the list is Blac Chyna. Blac Chyna is a popular model, reality TV star, and socialite. Her reality TV show, Rob & Chyna, earned her fame and money, as did other endeavors in the entertainment industry. With her army of over 16 million followers, Blac Chyna is one of Instagram’s most popular stars.
At $19.99 a month, Blac Chyna offers a subscription to her 100 exclusive photos and videos that she makes almost every day. She is very active on the site, always chatting with fans and dropping random status updates. To make things a lot spicier, Blac Chyna makes a specially-themed post on certain days of the week, such as Mondays and Fridays.
You Can Be a Celebrity On OnlyFans
It is apparent that celebrities now see the huge upsides of running a shop directly from OnlyFans. The platform not only solidifies their celebrity status but has also earned them a lot in terms of alternative income.
On OnlyFans, you can come in as an established force or grow your army from scratch. Either way, it’s a win-win every time.
In 2022 many methods and tools that were efficient in terms of Instagram promotion previously have come to past and stopped being lucrative: now people who are willing to start developing their resource here have to gain some knowledge beforehand and turn to help from professionals and third party websites that can give them a boost and an advantage over other bloggers out there.
In this text we have gathered 7 efficient promotional methods for development of your Instagram profile in 2022 and have placed them in a rating from the ones with an average efficiency to the highly effective ones. We have to mention though that those methods are not for everyone: some of them are suitable for beginners only, some of them are time and energy consuming, and some should be taken in a specific order. We are going to note all of that in the rating, but if you don’t have time or willingness to figure all of that out, spend time choosing a package to buy Instagram followers and picking the bloggers to collaborate with – you can always delegate that process to a professional SMM-specialist. However, this is going to cost you more money and you will have less control over the whole process.
7. Commenting. This one is suitable not only for beginners, but also for people who are struggling on their way towards a bigger and more popular account. This method includes leaving comments under the popular and controversial posts of popular bloggers in your niche. But you have to keep in mind several important nuances: first of all, you have to take care of your main picture and your username – should be as “saying” and catchy as possible, so that people would clearly see who you are and what you’re doing on this platform. Plus, you should never try to discredit a blogger whose audience you’re going to try to make yours as well: be polite, friendly and willing to share opinions.
This method can help you gain a couple dozens subs, but not more than that. However, at some times this is enough to give your profile a new spin of growth.
6. Activity chats. Highly efficient for novices, not that efficient for people who have already gained their specific audience. If you’re totally new to IG and have no subs and no opportunities to share the audience with somebody who can help you, you can join activity chats on Telegram and What’s App where beginner content creators gather to give each other a hand of help. They share links of the posts that need support and give each other thumbs up and comments for them. As we have said, this is great for newcomers – because they are getting the much needed support and also form the “professional” bonds with people who might be their mutual PR partners in the future.
Don’t overuse this method, try it out to get your first several dozen subs and then quit. The audience that you’re going to get using it is non-specific and non-permanent, so you should use the created illusion of a successful account to move forward. Keep in mind that the effect is temporary.
5. Cross posting. Great for anyone who had a chance to gather a somewhat mediocre or big audience on other social media platforms. This one is suitable for TikTokers, Youtubers, Facebook enthusiasts – if you have people who support you there, you have a chance to bribe them for following you on a new platform. Find the right motivation and maybe hold a giveaway of presents or discount codes (if you’re trying to promote and sell something material or informationally valuable) – this is going to build up your reputation and strengthen the bond between you and your audience.
4. Free PR from the same “size” bloggers. This one is suitable for everybody: the only condition that should be met is that these bloggers have to be from your field and have to have the same number of subscribers as you do. Such PR is going to be completely free for you, but you will be able tangibly grow your audience by dint of conjoining yours and other bloggers’ audiences. Most of the time such people are too busy or too shy to reach out and ask for collabs, but you shouldn’t take that as a correct behavior pattern – reach out to several bloggers in your niche with an offer to collaborate and PR each other. This is going to be totally worth it, trust us on this one.
3. A possibility to buy real Instagram followers. If you see that you have difficulties with gaining subscribers by now (no matter if you’re new to Instagram or if you’re an advanced blogger) you can always solve the problem by purchasing some subscribers. This is a golden promotional tool that sometimes becomes a total game changer for people who have been facing some obstacles; by using this opportunity you can not only increase the number of your subs and change the situation on your profile, you can easily show positive impact on your page’s statistics as well – but only in case if you’re obtaining real subs.
What are real subscribers and what is their difference from the fake ones?
Real followers for Instagram are the ones that are real people coming to your page and becoming your readers. They have actual functioning profiles that are filled with photos, have subscriptions and their own subscribers. In general – just people who are willing to collaborate with promotional websites for a nice reward for their work. This pattern of work is common for companies that show high quality services and give warranties for the efficiency of their subs’ packs.
Fake followers (or inactive ones, or “dead” pages) are provided by bots that are being created by indecent companies that try to create a visibility of efficient services whilst giving their clients packs with subs that can harm their profiles. They usually don’t have that information noted on their website, but they don’t have the info about a decent delivery method as well. So make sure to talk to the company’s manager before buying something from them and look up reviews from the previous buyers.
2. Setting a targeted ad. This one takes second place in our rating, because it brings lots of specific, permanent or semi-permanent audiences that are definitely going to support your content and buy from you, because they were interested in it long before finding your account. Instagram uses the data that it gathers about each user to provide decent circulation of the ads: it shows the clips to people who are going to be interested in them according to their previous searches on the platform and to their subscriptions. This is why targeted ads might cost a lot (if you set “big” audience reach settings) but at the same time is one of the most efficient promotional methods.
1. Influence marketing through big bloggers in your niche. This one is suitable for everyone and takes the first place in efficiency, as it brings a highly specific and highly interested audience that is going to get a recommendation about you from the other person whom they already trust. This helps to build the best bond between you and your new subscribers, because they already come to you with a prejudice that your content is good and loved by a person whom they have been following for a long time now. Surely, the price of such an ad is going to broadly vary, but the game is definitely worth the candles. So make sure to pick the bloggers from your field and cooperate with several (or one) ones of them all at the same time; prepare new content in advance and be ready to put it forward regularly as the ad goes on. Be online to communicate with the new audience and give them a guide through your profile if they need one.
Summing up Now you have a full guide to efficient promotion on your hands: if you’d combine several or all of the methods while developing your page, you will be able to see astonishing results in the shortest time. Yes, all of that is hard daily work that should be done by you (or by somebody whom you’re going to delegate it to), but it is definitely worth the fuss – in the end you’re going to get a decent channel for communication, interaction and cooperation with your audience and other brands (if you need it), you will be able to easily and quickly announce new things in your brand’s (or your own) life and sell the products and services effortlessly.

Back-to-school shopping and preparation can set the tone for an awesome start to the school year, and we are all in for it. Enjoy these five tips for going back to school with middle school kids.
1. Enjoy Books and Movies Set in Middle School
Whether it’s your child’s first year in middle school or they’re returning, back-to-school jitters are normal. One fun way to turn nerves from anxious to excited is to enjoy some family-fun movies or books set in middle school. Enjoy books like “Diary of a Wimpy Kid,” “Wonder,” or “Save Me A Seat” for a fast track to middle school without actually stepping on campus. Of course, you can watch the movie adaptations of “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” and “Wonder” or add the likes of “Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life.”
2. Express That Style
Middle school will be some of the best years and some of the hardest years. Big kids become teens in this in-between world squished in the middle of elementary and high school. Identities are formed, friends are made and middle school photos will follow them forever. So why not give your kids the “look good, feel good” confidence they need to succeed in middle school?
Finish Line is our go-to source for style on a budget that parents can afford. Not only can kids express themselves with back-to-school shoes, backpacks or accessories, but you can know that your purchase will contribute to the Special Olympics, opportunities for those with special needs and resources for disadvantaged youth.
3. Visit the Campus
Now that you’ve watched a few movies and lined their shelves with back-to-school clothes, it’s time to visit the campus. Settle back-to-school jitters with a quick trip to the school. Most schools have a back-to-school night or an open house before class starts, so take advantage of this if yours does. Getting to see, touch and smell the school before it’s official can help your kiddo feel confident come the first day of school.
4. Run Through That Schedule
Knowing where to be and when is a big power play when you’re in middle school. Help your kids navigate their schedule before, during and after that campus visit. Give them a paper copy, snap a photo with their phone and make sure they know how to access any virtual maps or helps that may keep them on track with their schedule. Even a seasoned middle schooler will have a new schedule. Your kid will feel loads more prepared if they’ve walked the route at least once.
5. Level Up the Back-to-School Gear
Not only can your kids express themselves through fashion, but they can also level up their notebooks and lockers, too. Try Zazzle for unique, customizable pencils, notebooks, folders — you name it. If your kid needs it, Zazzle’s got it. Does your kid have a middle school locker? Zazzle has lots of fun ways to spice up and personalize a locker, too. There is no limit to self-expression in middle school.
The Middle School Years Will Pass
The transition from summer sun to classroom bells can seem jarring at first, but before you know it you’ll be in the 2022-2023 school year groove. Fall with all its comforts will wrap us up in pumpkin spice and snickerdoodles, and your child will be a pro at that once-formidable schedule. While these years will pass quickly, don’t miss the moment to give your kid a good start.
