Oh what what what is wrong w/the kids today?

#1 No one should ever have a dress made for the prom ever again. If you can not afford to spend a pretty penny for a dress made by a reputable seamstress in a fabric other than satin, then you can't have your dress made.

#2 Cutting holes randomly into a dress does not make it a cute/unique design. It just makes it a Hot Azz Mess.

#3 Lets speak on colors that flatter you. If you are one of my many ebony sisters of the world then bright orange or yellow or lime green are not the colors for you. Arguably neither is white, but that's just my opinion. Please make friends with the shades known as gold, crimson, chocolate, champagne, navy blue, and, black.

#4 Your nails should never be long enough to be used as tongs when cooking.

#5 Now I thought that the ridiculous hair went out w/the 80s even the 90s. In this day and age there is no reason for you to be out of the house w/a combination finger wave, pin curl, french roll w/waterfall of weave coming out the top and crimps for the bangs. Why sistas? Why?

The future is looking so bleak.

Too funny and too true! Did their parents see them leave the house in this HAM or did they help them pick out the outfit? I shudder to think what things will be like when my kids are that age. Will the girls be down to two band-aids and an eye patch? The words "sit yo' $5 azz down before I make change" come to mind.
