Summertime has been so good to me on the fashion tip. I have so many "LOTD" posts to make because a sista been out here slayin'! A couple weeks back, I attended and participated in the Bantu Fest, a Pan-African festival started by Bantu Entertainment here in my lovely city of Chicago.
I was asked to host the open mic segment, so you know I had to show up and show OUT. Instead of going out to buy a whole new outfit, I decided like Solange to just look in my closet and throw something together because Lord knows I have way too many pieces of clothing I've never worn before.
Last month, I purchased this sassy, fancy vintage (of course) 80's does 40's style, silk, sequin dress. It was very much giving me Janet Jackson's 1990 "Alright" music video where she paid homage to the 1940's jazz culture and even included a cameo from the Nicholas Brothers and Cab Calloway, who were all very instrumental in the formation of jazz music and style during the decade.
