Save the Elephants: STOP BLOODY IVORY

This week, two countries are seeking to break the worldwide ban on ivory trading — a decision that could wipe out whole elephant populations and bring these magnificent animals closer to extinction.

But many African states and conservationists support extending the ban on elephant-slaughtering ivory trade. The decision will be made at a UN meeting in Doha on 13 March, and global public opinion could tip the balance!

Not mad at ASOS’ Africa Collection just wish they had more to offer. Great initiative by my favorite budget retailer, Check it out!

I simply couldn’t allow today to pass without giving the one woman who means the most to me a quick shout-out. She taught me compassion. She taught me to fight for what I believe in. She always loved me unconditionally and sacrificed everything to raise me. She taught me how to be a woman and a damn good one at that. Mom, this one’s for you.  xoxo

THIS entire senior class at Chicago’s only public all-male, all-African-American high school has been accepted to four-year colleges. At last count, the 107 seniors had earned spots at 72 schools across the nation.

Love this skirt, courtesy of my Mum’s ReFab shop.

This wrap skirt is made from absolutely gorgeous fabric purchased directly from the vendors at the fabric markets in Accra, Ghana. The fabric is dyed and batiked with very permanent high quality dyes. It will not run, even in warm water! It is a joy to behold, with vibrant colors and remarkably inventive designs.
