Hip Hop & Fashion: The Takeover

For years, African American's have dominated pop-culture in every area. Sports, music, television, and now fashion, WE dominate what the world watches, listens to, and wears.

Kanye West has recently launched his own line of shoes with the internationally known Louis Vuitton, setting the path for many more to 'cross over.' Although I personally don't connect Kanye to Louis Vuitton, I guess he does create a buzz when it comes to all things hot. You can wear them too for a little over $900.


Today I chatted real brief with on Twitter with "American Boy" singer Estelle who notified the internet world of her the new Dolce and Gabanna Bag titled, Red Estelle Bag. Estelle's music is about as hot as this red leather patent leather tote. Dolce and Gabanna has always been my choice of a good accessorie, shoe, or sunglass. The clothes are hot too if you're a european size 0 (and I ain't nowhere near that). I definitely think that all black folks who can afford fine clothing and accessories should rush out and buy them. Rappers and singers aren't the only people who can wear these materials, they just insipire and open the door for all of us to rock what's hot! Big ups to both Estelle and Kanye West. Oh, and you can buy the bag for around $840.
