(everything thrifted from head to toe except Zara skinnies)
vintage 50s letterman sweater, vintage monogram blouse, vintage straw boater hat, Zara zipper skinnies, Modern Vintage double buckle booties, vintage gold hardware bag, vintage bangles, vintage oversized cross, 80s Purple wayfarer sunnies and B.E. rings
Call me a snob but I HATE wearing the same thing twice, (I mean I can afford to since everything I buy is 50 cents, hehe!!), but this sweater just speaks to me so I wear it like allllllll the time! It has the perfect fit and the cutest band letterman patch, plus it's black and matches majority of my "dressed down" clothes. I can honestly say, "I LOVE THIS SWEATER!", don't you??
So tomorrow is going to be the biggest day of my life, I'm going to meet my bf's parents!! After being together for all these years it took them awhile to understand our family and accept me being black! Yes it's 2010 and interracial couples are still considered taboo in small towns in Texas! They finally see that I'm a genuine person regardless of the color of my skin. And being the person that I am I can't fault them for being closed minded. I am a little scared cause I am going to Buttfuck, TX where all the bigots live!! So wish me luck cause I will check a mf if they get outta line, hehe!
You know I love you all, right??
Kisses,

Oh my gosh! Good luck darling, I know you will blw them away. I had a friend dealing with the same thing--it's hard when you have to take your beliefs (bigoted or not) and actually face a live person, because most people are kind and not at all threatening, which makes it all the harder to remain racist and small minded when you are engaging with a real, life human being.. at least that has been my experience and I know your effervescent, beautiful personality will win them in the end!
I love love your booties and your amazing sweater!

Good luck love. You know there feelings have nothing to do with you. It has all to do with the people they are and even how they were raised. We've come to far to still have racism in this day and age its a scapegoat so theres someone to be able to place the blame on. Im done with the rant..I love your sweater lettersmans are love.

1. This outfit is amazeballs. Love it.
2. Often times resistance stems from ignorance. Once people know about something and can experience it for themselves, they're much more open to it. Just be yourself and all will be fine!
