So I’ve been feeling a little disillusioned with the things going on in the world recently. From terrorist attacks to police shootings, racism and even this current political season, it’s all quite overwhelming. Every day we seem to hear about police killing young black men and not facing any consequences. And hateful rhetoric should never be heard from a political candidate. With all this being said, I’ve made my voice heard through peaceful protest and communication with my political representatives. Taking action is the best solution so I put together a little list that may help (if you haven’t done them already).
- Register to vote and show up Tuesday, November 8th to your local poll. This is beyond important. People have died and gone through hell just to make sure everyone has the right to vote.
- Contact your local politician and make your voices heard.
- Sign a petition. There’s a million out there but you can start with the White House.
This is just a start. May love, peace and justice prevail.
Sincerely,
Malinda F. Knowles
Palm Trees. Sequins. Cigars. Old Cars. It was a Cuban dream at the Chanel Cruise 2016/17 Fashion Show yesterday. Chanel nailed their fashion show by incorporating all things that come to mind when thinking about Cuba but maintained their backbone. There was tweed and beautiful materials of course, but 1950s cars and cigar box handbags.
I loved it! In Florida, it’s basically resort wear all year long and this show definitely gave me some great inspiration. I definitely want to get over to Cuba one of these days. By the way, if you are in Cuba Karl Lagerfeld is showing more than 200 of his photographs at Factoria Habana until May 12th.
Florida has been so beautiful and the weather is perfect. I was inspired by a beautiful photo of a sunset I took
