Death to Denim. Top Story - January 2021.
My grandmother grew up in a small town in Sonora, Mexico, living with 10 siblings. She was the eldest daughter, so she was in charge of ironing her brothers’ jeans. (Exhibit 478 to answer the call: Unionize Eldest Daughters. I’m getting it tattooed under my left buttcheek. If all you who know the eldest-daughter-experience want to get a matching one, truly, let me know.) The iron was made of iron, heated over coals, to flatten the rough, coarse material of small-town Mexican denim. She hated ironing all those tough jeans. As soon as her own Mexican-American daughters were old enough to iron, and the iron itself was modern enough to not be made of iron, she taught them and left them to iron their father’s clothes.

When were fatpants banned?
I was a major raver in the late 90's into the early 2000's, and quickly lost interest once I cleaned up from the cornacopia of drugs necessary to handle large groups of people. I must admit though, I do miss the never ending nights dancing with unlimited energy and massage trains. (Oh those wonderful massage trains, where people resembled a PG version of the human centipede.) No suprise, this trend continued, although now it seems the uniform has had some costume changes. When I frequented the many emptied factories or underground night clubs, fat pants and soothers were the standard for anyone addicted to bass and hallucinogens. Even though the drugs seem to be the same the clothes have diminished into what looks to be stripper costumes brought to you by the colour neon and vinyl.

The Unyielding, Unflattering Denim Trend
I lie awake at night, staring at the swirls on my ceiling, wondering what the hell happened at Target today. I walked in around ten in the morning, prime time to shop for one specific thing and ending up with ten other things, while forgetting the one thing I needed. The nostalgic smell of stale popcorn and name brand coffee wafted across my skin as I set forth toward the clothing section, the first place a young woman goes when she needs some avocados and a loaf of bread.

My Hopeful Demise of the Puffy Shoulder Sleeve
As an ‘90’s fashion activist, I can’t say 2020 has displeased me with it’s revival of hair scrunchies and mom jeans. Quite frankly, 2020, whilst implementing masks and hazmat suits as normal streetwear, has presented us with several trends that affirm the unique, unprecedented year we have stepped out of. It’s been magnificent watching the evolution of fashion become increasingly gender non-conforming, and spectating as each individual stepped into their own era of style.

That's Soo 2020
So 2020, let’s talk about it… I think we can all agree that as far as hip-hop culture is concerned, fashion just got good within the last decade. For me it has been a relief not having to carry the burden of baggy jeans and oversized shirts. I am utterly amazed at how mangled fashion and hip-hop have become. In my lifetime the culture’s dress code has essentially shifted away from “average” to “exclusive” high fashion for a more refined look. Throughout that transition, hip-hop artists and influencers have been the driving force behind much of the success fashion brands have achieved today. But as the old saying goes, all good things must come to an end, and in 2020 I am afraid that hip-hop culture may have taken a turn for the worst.

Make Red Hats Wearable Again. . Top Story - January 2021.
I love hats. Big hats. Tiny hats. Knit hats. Hats with a wide brim. Berets and bucket hats. My mother's always told me I look good in them, and her praise encouraged me to start a hat collection from a young age. Name a kind of hat, and I've got it in a bin inside my closet.
