Hot girl Megan Thee Stallion is always heating up the nation with her chart-topping tracks, makeup looks, and bomb visuals. She recently struck a pose for the ‘gram in a blue two piece set from Fashion Nova.
Megan Thee Stallion wore Fashion Nova’s $49.99 Clear Your Schedule Ruched Pant Set in blue. She paired the look with a similarly colored quilted Chanel bag and white sandals. She also opted for a blue-violet hair color to compliment her look.
Cardi B recently announced that she would be launching her very own limited edition doll with the brand known as Real Women Are. Of course, she made the announcement in a stylish manner rocking a stunning Burberry look:
Domenico Dolce & Stefano Gabbana of Dolce & Gabbana have filed a €4 million defamation suit against popular fashion commentary blog @Diet_Prada, accusing blog co-founders Tony Lui and Lindsey Schuyler of causing them to lose revenue and other opportunities surrounding their controversial 2018 #DGlovesChina campaign.
Dolce&Gabanna faced widespread criticism for what many perceived as stereotyping Chinese culture in an advertising campaign before a Shanghai fashion show. The ad campaign included a video in which a Chinese woman attempts and fails to eat Italian food with chopsticks. It was uploaded, but removed within 24 hours, though it remained visible on Diet Prada. Diet Prada also posted screenshots of anti-Asian remarks allegedly sent from Stefano Gabbana’s Instagram account (he later said his account was hacked). As a result of the furor, the runway show was canceled. In response to the lawsuit, Liu told the Cut, “As an Asian-American, I’m part of a community that is often misrepresented. Like many people of color in the United States, there’s pain that stems from seeing ourselves depicted through inaccurate, harmful stereotypes. Often, it leads to racism and violence.”

He continued, “For two years, I’ve stayed silent and carried the burden of this lawsuit on my shoulders. During this time, the world was forced to reckon with the systemic racism in the U.S. that led to the murder of George Floyd and countless other Black lives, as well as the xenophobia that further fueled Trump’s anti-Asian rhetoric in the age of COVID-19. In the outpouring of support for these communities being targeted, we all continue to see the power of solidarity and speaking truth to power. Diet Prada will continue to be a platform to elevate these crucial issues.”
We definitely see Diet Prada’s point. Dolce & Gabbana committed a huge cultural misstep and didn’t do the proper research to ensure their commercial wasn’t offensive. As an outsider looking in, the commercial seems benign, but obviously there are cultural cues that neither Dolce & Gabbana nor I are aware of. When stepping foot into a new country and culture, it’s of prime importance to offer the utmost respect. D&G fell short, and now are blaming their errors and the fall out on a media organization that was simply reporting the news.
Her jacket is from Balenciaga’s Fall 2016 collection, and features contrasting black panels to the shoulders and arms with reflective pipping.
Golden buttons highlight the double-breasted closure on this menswear-inspired blazer tailored with strong shoulders and peaked lapels for an ultrasharp look.
Her Amber pumps are a white leather high heel slingback with an ankle strap.
Home and its entire rooms deserve decoration, be it in the kitchen or the living room. However, most of the attention is given to the living room, given that the family spends quality time together in this room. Since this room is used differently, you must consider having the most stylish and latest furniture in it. Nevertheless, with a lot of options available in the market to decorate this room, sometimes it becomes hard to make the right decisions. This write-up will give you some of the best and possible ideas for your linen tablecloths. Whether your goal is whether to refresh your rooms or completely do a makeover, you are bound to find the best idea for you.
Use palette
This design is rooted in natural palettes. Different people will use this to style and decorate the house differently. Some use it to refresh their lush oasis with ocean blues and leafy greens. The palettes give you a sunkissed feeling. Have the palette from one room to the other, adding some bright paint at the tip. For a room accessible to a lot of natural light, use soft hues and deepening shades of gray and blue for the other rooms.
Colors
Use mountain grey and morning yellow colors in the outdoors of your home. This duo is more optimistic and is exactly what you need today to decorate your home. Grey is much reliable when it comes to preserving the neutrality of your home. Also, this is illuminating and brings out the joy of the natural colors, thus re-energizing you every time you look at it. You can try this out by getting a grey-colored couch, and some pillow throws.
Materials: Lightwoods
Materials can also be used to decorate a house into the home you would want to see. However, remember that tactility is everything, and it makes the experience deeper and richer. Make your interior walls cozy and trendy using light-toned words either on the floors or on the furniture. Some people use this wood in wall paneling or ceiling boards. This will provide you the finishing you have been looking for. Alternatively, you can use linen materials in your table clothes to bring out a trendy but simpler theme.
Woven textures
Wooden décor is also another stylish décor most people prefer to have in their homes. There are various things in your house you can use to utilize the woven materials. For instance, you can use this material to make a caned cabinet, on a seating can, or in a wicker planter. This will bring out the natural look in your home. You can use some cool lighting using the authenticity touch. These materials will make the outdoor environment of your home comfier to relax most of the time.
Shapes: Curved
You can achieve stylish and trendy décor using different types of shapes in your home. One of the shapes most people use is a comfy and curved shape. After a long time of looking for something to bring out a more innocent vibe in your home, here come different shapes of furniture to help you decorate your home in the desired design. Asymmetrical shapes are good in this because they are perfect for bringing out a simple but stylish décor. Have your furniture made with a curved shape. Curves are known for being fluid, meaning that they don’t give you a tight or a rigid theme where you will have to struggle to find something to match it with. You can apply this design to your coffee table, cabinets, and even in archways. Sometimes, you can still use it in lighting, and it will come out great. The round shape makes this design more fun and approachable. Moreover, it is easy to find affordable furniture.
Style
Who does want to feel creative and wilder in their choice of style? Well, I guess the answer to this question is nobody. This is why rustic décor has made an appearance in most homes. Like other trends we know, this style has a rugged and back to basics approach. Presently, the rustic style is nothing like the old one as it is more upscale. If you want to use this style, however, you must ensure that your colors are blended in the room essentials and usually in the streamlined pieces. This brings out the elegance in your design. If you want to achieve more with this style, use brown and green colors or themes in your room. You can use these colors on the fur throws and in the cowhide rugs. Replace all the rust in your room with gloss. This will create an ambiance of the modern rustic style.
Design huck
This applies to many things, for instance, in storage furniture. As much as we are trying to achieve calmness and efficiency in the home environment, storage furniture is one piece of items we can utilize to bring this out. This theme brings harmony to the entire décor. You can use this in tables, cabinets, benches, and ottoman. Since this is multipurpose, you cannot only use it with the furniture but in different spaces in your home. It is more fun when used in small spaces. For homes with a gym or craft studios inside and sometimes an office, you can have a desk in it to serve as a nightstand. Alternatively, you can use this bench as a table behind your couch.
Movement
Achieving a stylish home décor involves various things, and these things you must consider for your result to be satisfactory. Considering the movement of the items you purchase in your home is another way to achieve stylish home décor. A socially conscious and healthy home is a good environment not only for your but your entire family. Investing in items that are friendly but stylish can get you a home design of your choice. Some of the items that are sustainable in terms of movement include bioplastics, up-cycled items, and recycled materials. These items, when utilized well, can be trendy. Using sustainable designs can bring out the theme of purity. Think of items such as hypoallergenic beddings, composite outdoor furniture, and rugs made from natural fibers. These handmade materials bring out a stylish design for your décor. Above all, these materials are durable, meaning that you don’t have to spend all the time purchasing them.
To sum up, there are many durable and stylish options or rather ideas you can use for your home décor. These options come in different budgets, but since there are many options, you will be bound to find the one that fits into your account. From materials, colors, shapes, and styles, you can find the best options to suit your desired home décor.

“Women will be hidden no more. We will not remain hidden figures. We have names. … It was woman that gave you Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It was woman that gave you Malcolm X. And according to the Bible, it was a woman that gave you Jesus. Don’t you ever forget it.” Janelle Monáe
|Dear Fashion Industry,
Last week, the text messages flooded in all at once. “Congrats!” “woah Saks is big time April!” “good look with the Walker Wear on Saks”…. Huh? I opened up my phone to see my namesake “WW” design on a “swaggy” white male mode. The price tag was astronomical. The vibe? Casual appropriation. The problem? It wasn’t my jacket…”
It was Off-White’s brand.
I’m sick of big fashion house creative looters that do drive-bys and steal derivative works and original designs from independent designers that actually birth originality. These big fashion brands “make and take” and appropriate these designers without credit, compensation, or permission, until they’re called out.
I surmise there are a few reasons that this viscous cycle has perpetuated itself since the beginning of time. It could be a lack of creativity, lazy genius syndrome, or a sense of entitlement. The fashion industry is a mirror reflection of America. It’s the spirit of elitism and “whiteness” is the strongest benefactor. These European Fashion Houses bank on the fact that most independent designers will be outgunned in legal proceedings so designers are often disregarded or considered invisible. They’re assumed a non-factor. Let’s add some colors and layers to this equation. Try being POC as a black or brown designer, and then add the wild card to it…gender and the inequality, where women are often trampled upon quietly.
I’m getting ahead of myself. Let me not be rude. My name is April Walker of Walker Wear. I’m the founder of one of the first fashion brands that helped to pave the way for the multi-billion dollar industry coined as streetwear today. I’ve been in this game for a little more than three decades now, and as the the first female designer to hold court and dominate in this streetwear lane, I’ve had my share of experiences and I don’t take them lightly. Gracefully, Walker Wear has remained agile and stayed rooted in our foundation…hip hop culture. We pride ourselves on creating timeless classics and staples with quality over quantity.
As makers and creators, Walker Wear recently experienced creative theft, and to add to the sting, it was on the heels of Black History Month. As we walked into Women’s History Month, I noticed in an Instagram ad that Off-White introduced a WW Letterman jacket that felt too close for comfort in the design. It was a classic design that we’ve been using for years. As these DM’s started rolling in, and the phone started ringing, there were many confused tribe members trying to figure out what was going on, was it a collab, some were infuriated and felt that the design was disrespectful to say the least.
There are so many layers to unpack here… the timing of it all, the WW’s on an Off-White Jacket, the similarity and likeness of my design, the fact that I’m a Blexican woman and it was done by Virgil Abloh. It felt intentional…like a strong and deliberate chess or jack move, maybe both.
As a founder and legend in this space, I’m flattered that some creatives have been inspired, but the best way to pay homage is to do just that, without duplicity and forgetting to give credit where credit is due. The problem that exists here is a lack of integrity, lack of respect for culture and a lack of appreciation for women. The irony is that without me and others that have created this streetwear lane, Virgil wouldn’t be here today. I keep wondering if this would have been done to one of our male fashion legends like Karl Kani or Dapper Dan, but I’m guessing that since I was a woman, there wasn’t a second thought.
Here’s the thing. There’s a new day dawning. Women will not be trampled over any longer. We will not be dismissed. We will not be exploited. Independent black and brown designers matter and are essential to creating a healthy eco-system. We are here for real change. We are here to empower and pave the way for the next generation of fashion game-changers and the only way to do that is to think about sustainability as “a people and planet”.
