EDITED BY MELODY BOYKIN
Happy Thursday, The Countdown to Christmas is approaching fast do you know what outfits you will be wearing for the holiday festivities, vacations, and staycations? If not, no worries we’ve got you covered. I mean literally. Imagine This.
You’re walking down the street as you easily press your new shoes against the pavement. It’s supposed to be snowing in Chicago but thankfully it’s not. (LoL) The soles of your heeled booties are sashaying like it’s a hot day in July. In your mind, you look hot and you you think to yourself “ I know it”, just as you pull your snazzy new black-owned coat closer to you, and tighten a pretty little scarf that you found at your favorite neighborhood boutique
As you turn the corner, A Stranger yells to you. “Looove the outfit! Where’d you get it!” You pause for a second. Are you going to tell them? Of course, you are! You love bragging about your new black business finds! The look on their face is covered in “impressed” when you say “It’s all black business.” You’re proud of yourself and proud to be wearing a Banging Outfit from a local Black Business this holiday season.
Vision over, reality resumes. We’re proud you read this short blurb, Build a Banging Outfit This Christmas from Local Black Businesses. Now it’s time to go grab the perfect outfit in time for the holidays with 5 outfits we imagined may look good on you.
