Red-Light Cameras Not So Special?

Latithia got off the brown line on her way to the public library. When asked to be photographed, she hesitated, Wait, is this a bad fashion blog? After being assured that this is not a bad fashion blog (well, depending on whom you ask), she agreed to step out into the light to show off her look. An aspiring fashion student, Latithia knew exactly how to strike a pose with no guidance.

Being invisible's definitely a fashion statement.
Best street fashion edition yet. Oh, wait...
Actually now that I see the photos, her outfit does show a little flair, a sense of fashion. Much more so than the previous guy-with-a-shirt-a-pair-of-pants-and-a-coat spreads.
Sorry, some technical difficulties made the gallery keep disappearing and reappearing.
I know whitemaledom is sub consciously ingrained, but how refreshing! Maybe this column might even have a global feel about it?
Oh and by the way any body else have a huge crush on Thelma from Good Times? All the other boys were talking about how "Fion" Penny was, but a young Spook was fanaticizing about Thelma
but a young Spook was fanaticizing about Thelma
What (african american) male kid wasn't? How could anyone even comment on "Penny" (Janet Jackson). She was a effin kid! Now, THELMA!....POW! POW!
Ah, 70s puberty....
So cute. I love her shoes and hair.
Grimace wants his leggings back.
An improvement in subject selection but a drop in quality of content. Why did the fashion post not talk about the fashion?
I think by writing about her personality, you add another dimension to her dress. Or perhaps, understand the reason why she is dressed in such a way. I think the fashion speaks for itself in the photographs though. I'm all ears for suggestions of course.
I think that rather than adding a dimension, you replaced one. And we don't really see much in the way of personality, rather than her reaction to being asked to be included in the blog. As such, the text becomes as much about you as it is about her. Meanwhile, we lose any description of the clothing or even her motivation or thought process in choosing it, which I thought was the point. It would have been interesting to at least know why she wore what she wore, especially when you consider that she's a fashion student.
If the clothes speak for themselves, why have any text at all?
excellent.
I admire the purple leggings, but don't think they mesh with the embroidery on the dress, if I could see it that is. It would have been nice of you to get maybe just one full length shot, and one detailed shot- I don't see the need for two. What's that in her hair? It looks like something silver, playing off the grey in her tights? Is what what you saw that made her look complete? Again, a detailed shot could help the clothes tell us the story.

All the Whatcha Wearin' people have looked really warm. I never thought I was a wimp, but apparently I am since I'm still wearing hats, and gloves.
Stealth, thanks for lumping me in with every body else!
What I had with Thema was different and special, especially when J.J. painted her as a super hero in that cat suit! POW! POW!
