I loved this fur sleeve coat! Bright red hair and a camouflage added pop.
Dior’s Spring RTW “We Should all be Feminists” shirt is a hot commodity! First Natalie Portman, then Rihanna, and now this young lady! Yes to her skirt and leggings.

Fact: Whenever Angela Davis speaks, we listen. The icon was one of the many who lent her voice to the Women’s March on Washington yesterday, continuing the fight she’s been a leader of for almost five decades. Her speech was a call for resistance of Trump’s presidency and a more militant mindset as we start our next four years with this new administration:
“At a challenging moment in our history, let us remind ourselves that we the hundreds of thousands, the millions of women, trans-people, men and youth who are here at the Women’s March, we represent the powerful forces of change that are determined to prevent the dying cultures of racism, hetero-patriarchy from rising again,” powerfully started Davis. “We recognize that we are collective agents of history and that history cannot be deleted like web pages. We know that we gather this afternoon on indigenous land and we follow the lead of the first peoples who despite massive genocidal violence have never relinquished the struggle for land, water, culture, their people. We especially salute today the Standing Rock Sioux.”
She continued, “The freedom struggles of black people that have shaped the very nature of this country’s history cannot be deleted with the sweep of a hand. We cannot be made to forget that black lives do matter.” Davis reminded us that the United States has colonialism and slavery at its foundation, which means that enslavement and immigration are intrinsic to American history. “Spreading xenophobia, hurling accusations of murder and rape and building walls will not erase history,” emphasized the activist. “No human being is illegal. The struggle to save the planet, to stop climate change, to guarantee the accessibility of water from the lands of the Standing Rock Sioux, to Flint, Michigan, to the West Bank and Gaza. The struggle to save our flora and fauna, to save the air—this is ground zero of the struggle for social justice.”
The Women’s March on Washington and all of its sister marches around the world spoke to the hope and potential of feminism now and throughout our lifetime. Davis went on, “And inclusive and intersectional feminism that calls upon all of us to join the resistance to racism, to Islamophobia, to anti-Semitism, to misogyny, to capitalist exploitation. We dedicate ourselves to collective resistance.” She then got into specifics, calling out the housing market and gentrification first. “Resistance to the health care privateers. Resistance to the attacks on Muslims and on immigrants. Resistance to attacks on disabled people.” Essentially, Davis gave us a list of causes to get involved in. She wasn’t done either. “Resistance to state violence perpetrated by the police and through the prison industrial complex. Resistance to institutional and intimate gender violence, especially against trans women of color.”
“Women’s rights are human rights all over the planet and that is why we say freedom and justice for Palestine,” affirmed Davis. “We celebrate the impending release of Chelsea Manning. And Oscar López Rivera. But we also say free Leonard Peltier.” Mumia Abu-Jamal and Assata Shakur were also named by the legend. “Over the next months and years we will be called upon to intensify our demands for social justice to become more militant in our defense of vulnerable populations. Those who still defend the supremacy of white male hetero-patriarchy had better watch out.”
There will be almost 1,500 days in the Trump administration and Davis urged us all to resist his policies every single day. “Resistance on the ground, resistance in the classrooms, resistance on the job, resistance in our art and in our music. This is just the beginning.” And she ended with a quote from Ella Baker, “‘We who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes.'”
Did you have a favorite moment from yesterday’s protests?

Fashion is a political statement, and never was that more apparent than at the Women’s March on Washington, New York, Boston, LA, and seemingly everywhere around the globe!
We asked you guys to show us your style. You didn’t disappoint:
Catherine aka @Anaduci wore her feminism on her shirt, topping an all black look with a ‘Human Race’ cap by Black Tag Apparel.
Joshlyn aka @writeordie85 proclaimed, “What a time to be alive! Today we didn’t just march for women, we marched for ALL people and their rights. And in the midst of the crowded streets of San Diego, I found this adorable couple and I had to capture the moment.” Yes! Love that sweatshirt from @shopthewritefit.
Michelle of @michellesashawrites said, “I attended the Women’s March today in Washington, D.C. While everyone had a different “why” for their attendance today, as a black woman, I wanted to show solidarity for so many others and their right to maintain their own point of view. Not everyone there was pro-abortion or anti-Trump. However, the vast majority did agree on one thing today: their first amendment right to voice their opinion. My hat is by Conduit Brand and it represents the chemical structure of melanin. Available at conduitbrand.co (IG: @conduitbrand).” I’ll look them up!
The Mess in a Bottle Team came out in full force! They wrote, “Mess in a Bottle is a brand that allows you to say something without ever having to say anything at all. We are an expressive brand and we represent and capture the reaction and climate of current events. We allow an individual to be vocal within their MESSAGES. Our MESSAGES on tshirts are then packaged in a reusable bottle. MESS IN A BOTTLE.”
@BrownSugaBride checked in from Oakland, California.
Melissa said, “The emotions I felt today, witnessing the organizing power of my fellow women of color, are indescribable. The energy, the commitment of 500,000 sisters and brothers standing in unison. We march for African Americans, for Asian Americans, for Latino Americans, for Muslim Americans, for LGBTQ Americans, for Native Americans…FOR ALL AMERICANS. We speak out loudly in support of reproductive rights, against mass incarceration, for equal rights, for the environment, for disability rights, for economic and social justice. We are united and we will not back down from the fight. An injustice against one is a scar on us all. ????✌?✊?”
@TheBazaarBohemian and @Oaklanta wore shirts from @SoukBohemian for the march in Atlanta. They said, “We have to use EVERY single opportunity we have to Speak UP, and Speak OUT… If WE don’t, WHO will?”
Model Leomie Anderson was on the scene in London, wearing a Lapp the Brand ‘This P***Y Grabs Back” pink sweatshirt, also worn by Rihanna.
Perrine @The_Perrine_ typed, “I’m Perrine and yesterday #imarchedfor my ancestors who came before me. I’m a first-generation Liberian-American and my family immigrated here in 1980 to give my siblings and I the American Dream as our country battled in a Civil War. Yesterday during the Women’s March on Charlotte, I marched for the female immigrants who raised me in this country, for their voices and mine to be heard, as well as cultural understanding, racial justice and overall equality. I made this shirt and sign I’m photographed in and bought my entire outfit from a thrift store.”
Meechie protested in a Black Lives Matter shirt and a sign that said, “The Revolution will Not be Privatized.”
Lastly, Emani @Emanimeansfaith and friends almost made me cry through their sisterhood, translated via the image above! She wrote, “I am one of 8 in my group who came together to march on Washington DC in the millions woman’s march. There wasn’t a seat at the table for us when this march was first organized. But we made one, and we showed up and stood united with everyone who needed their voices heard. This was the most empowering event I’ve attended this year thus far. I especially felt chills when I knew Angela Davis was marching with us. We are our mothers and grandmothers children and now it is our time to do our part.”
Yes, I love it! Keep the pictures flowing in, we’d love to see and hear your thoughts!
