It was made famous by the egyptian pharoes and African Kings and nobility and was thrown back into this generation by hip hop, gangsters, rappers and pimps (dont you love how the universe works) Many of you may not know this but I LOVE me some bling on a man. Fellas don't listen to the critics of bling, they just dont understand that sometimes you want to spend money on something that makes you giggle to your self. Bling is really self indulgent (in a good way). Dont get me wrong I love it when... Continue reading ...

 Drugs money worth billions of dollars kept the financial system afloat
at the height of the global crisis, the United Nations' drugs and crime
tsar has told the Observer.
Antonio Maria Costa, head of the UN Office on Drugs and Crime, said he
has seen evidence that the proceeds of organised crime were "the only
liquid investment capital" available to some banks on the brink of
collapse last year. He said that a majority of the $352bn (£216bn) of

Things You'll Need:

When

juice your own lemons if you have time for the best results. Bottled
lemon juice will work just as well, but you will need to make your

 Colin Stuart has the Devon Convertible Boot
at Victoria’s Secret on sale for a fantastic $129. Michael Kors, Ann
Demeulemeester and various other designers have convertible boots as
well, but from the photos online, this one is by far my favorite, the
least complicated (who needs five lengths?), and by far the cheapest.
The top suede part zips off and then the bottom part is a leather
ankle boot. Useful for changeable weather, money-saving and attractive.
Nice! I’d protect the boot (but e... Continue reading ...

So, a bunch of people are upset about these and I think they don't understand the whole black face controversy. "The black face minstrel act was a very popular form of entertainment in
19th-century America. It was also a highly racist depiction of African
Americans"   The audience for these shows was largely working-class whites, and at
first the black face character was actually a smart and sympathetic one.
But as time went on, the minstrel show took on a more racist tone.  the outrage of black fa... Continue reading ...

Just two weeks ago, Vogue Paris stirred up controversy for coloring
Lara Stone’s skin into a dark, nearly black tan for an editorial

It’s a misstep on Carine’s part that the spread is linked with racism.
