Fashion,

“Hollaaaa!”

Snapback? Sweatshirt? Gold hoops? Yes, you guessed it! Today’s look is inspired by the one and only, Missy Elliott. This lady still remains one of my all-time favourite female hip-hop artists. You can’t deny it, all her songs are serious head-bangers. I remember trying to emulate her gangster flow (I’m still trying, LOL!) and learn the dance moves in her videos…well, the less weird videos like “Work It” and “Loose Control”. The video for “Get Your Freak On” took things to a whole other level (Remember it? The one that started with some Karate-style dancing guy saying something in Japanese ?). Even now she’s still poppin’. If you haven’t heard her latest single, “WTF” Ft. Pharrell, I suggest you do so immediately. I just wish she could make more music, we need her old school vibe back on the hip-hop scene.
