Kanye West's Clothing Line GETS BETTER The 2nd Time Around...

20120306-224021.jpg

This is the second showing of Kanye West's line for Fall/Winter 2012. He did a much better job than the first one, mainly because I think he took what the critics said to heart about how his collection was 'all over the place.' Many celebs like Diddy, Kim Kardashian, Alicia Keys, and Common were there to lend a hand in support.

The line seemed to have stuck around those FIYAH belted stiletto boots, garments and outerwear of the browns, whites, and soft peach. Everything was kept in a flowing, cohesive manner. See some more looks, and I've got a video of the show via Fashion Bomb Daily.

Stylish First Lady Michelle Obama Is Cool and Forward-Thinking; Invites Common To Perform At White House

          

Some people just FELL OUT at the notion of Common performing at the White House. In my opinion (which is close to a fact), this world is changing and these old-thinking people need to get with the program. It's OK to critique a person, but not good for someone to be generally set into their own ways, not giving anyone a chance (just as long as that new 'chance' is not destructive to livelihood).

Of course people criticized Michelle Obama for promoting a man whose lyrics included 'cop killing' (which would fall in line as 'destructive') but I guess Obama took it as an art, not an action. See what she said below:


“We had a poetry session and we invited young kids in just last week from all over the country. And they talked to some of the most outstanding poets, and they read their poetry in the state room. And then we had a poetry night and Common was there. He’s very cute. But everybody from poet laureates to hip-hop folks, being able to mix up the world in that very interesting way, the White House allows you to do that.”
