    I love that it is probably just as exclusive like having a Gucci bag or Louis Vuitton bag, but the price point is not what makes it exclusive. love it!!!!!

    Galye doesn’t realize she was being disrespectful/shady. To say “ I will never wear this!” was too much. He didn’t ask you would you ever wear something like that. Calm down. Fashion is suppose to be fun. All you were doing was trying on some clothes. Of course there are pieces you’re not going to like. Just don’t be so rude about his passion.

    She realized what she was saying and it was intentionally rude and meant as shade. You don’t be around as long as she’s been around, and hang in the circles she hang in and not know when you’re being rude. She just can’t hide her disdain for black males.

    Because she knows it’s not appropriate for her age and she does look silly like she is trying to hard. I think that Telfar gets that! It’s not an insult to his clothes - it’s the fact that it’s not right for her.
