Shopper Spotlight: Arlene
Black Belt Shopper Arlene came early to Harlem for the Holidays and snagged some key items from a few vendor.
Arlene loves fashion and although she says we trap her by making everything to fit HER, we can't help it that she looks good in everything.

The Day Is Here
My Aunt Nona's little Geoffrey Beene gold beaded dress is now on display at the Museum of the City of New York. The exhibition is Mod New York, Fashion Takes a Trip.....and you can bop and bounce through the exhibit listening to the sound track of the time. The exhibit features designers Geoffrey Beene, Ruby Bailey, Pauline Trigére, and more.
