The Audacity of Hope...

THE STATE OF THIS UNION

The election of President Barack Hussein Obama is truly, truly the one triumph that gives all Americans and others across the world the Audacity of Hope. He makes everyone want to do better things, participate in selfless acts and get involved in their communities. As I was downtown in DC over this past week, I felt overwhelmed by tears of happiness and the Audacity of Hope. I can't help but feel like we've made three giant leaps forward, but feel like we are warped in the 50's and 60's and 70's. I was listening to the Michael Baisden show and callers were calling in as he was speaking with a member of congress about Americans who are losing their homes as I type this blog post. Unemployment rates are increasing at triple the rate as at this time last year and believe it or not racism is still existing today even with the election of President Barack Obama. It exists in our communities, in the media and even at our places of work. The state of our Union makes my soul weep. We must and will overcome these adversaries and we are starting with the election of President Barack Obama. I know this may get me in a little trouble but I have to say it anyway because this is MY blog. However, my job allows its employees to select which holidays they'd like to work for each year, of course the selection process is based on seniority, however I found it epically amazing that 95% of the African Americans who selected to have Martin Luther King day off for the 2009 holiday year were denied. I know this is not coincidence because those with seniority did not want MLK day off. Amazingly these employees were of a different race other than African American. This was a major disappointment to me finding that this type of mass oppression still exists in Corporate America. So as you can guess you know what I did... Hell-to-the-nawl, my black a** called out! I am not about to let anyone stand in the way of my Audacity of Hope!

Introducing...Melody Ehsani

Can I get a drum roll please! Not only is it about damn time I posted a new entry, but I'd like to introduce Persian native, designer Melody Ehsani. She designs the hauteness in accessories from jewlery to footwear. From the moment I spotted a post of Kelis rockin' an oversized pair of gold 80's inspired earring, I had to know who was responsible for the creation of an immaculate construction. So just the other day, I am at work surfing as if I have nothing else to do (Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I'm back in the workforce now, which is the reason behind the absenteeism, another post tho') and I ran across yet another post from my peeps over at Concrete Loop addressing concerns about the earrings Kelis was wearing. Mel has an array of celebs following suit from Nas, Rihanna, Alicia Keys and more. Anyway I personally ordered the personalized 3-finger ring plate and of course the Kelis earrings!!! And my girl Mel know how to give back to a cause, a portion of the proceeds from each portion goes to furthering the education of young women, so show some support.

So I digress and leave you some designs for thought...

Paws off the 1st Lady...

Stylist are dying to get their hands on our soon to be first lady of the "Black House"(for my redneck Texas buddies out there). It is being speculated that Andre Leon Talley, you know the creator of that hideous ensemble worn by Jennifer Hudson to the 2008 Oscars Awards, wants to wrap his unsightly drapes around Michelle Obama. A host of designers have all expressed interest and fascination in the tall, slender presidential hopefuls wife. Designers from Zac Posen, Cynthia Rowley to Erin Fetherson and not exclude Vogue's Andre Leon Talley, all paid a $10,000 meal ticket just to share dinner with Michelle. All of whom were campaigning for Michelle Obama to bring them on as a stylist. I don't know, I think Mrs. Obama does okay on her own. She could do a little better you know, some suits more appeasing to the eye, but she just keeps it classic. There's no need for her to bring someone on board who can't even dress themselves. We wouldn't want to see our first lady make the same mistakes Jen Hudson made.

Sex And The City...

In theaters today...

All Carrie Bradshaw fans, I know are ecstatic for the opening of Sex and the City. After a four year hiatus, the old gal gang is back. More chic, fashion forward, sexually enlightened and ready to hit the big screen. My favorite character I would have to say is Kim Catrell and then Carrie Bradshaw. I guess I will see some of you in line at theaters!
