| FROM THE RAW URBAN MUSIC TO THE REBELLIOUS CULTURAL FASHION, AFRO PUNK WAS DEFINITELY THE HYPE FOR THE WEEKEND! GO TO THE EXTREME OR GO HOME! SUNDAY, AUGUST 24 2014, IT WAS AN EPIC DAY FOR ME TO BE AT AN EVENT IN THE HARDKNOCK LIFE AND THE GRUNGE STREET FASHIONISTAS OF NEW YORK. MY FIRST TIME GOING TO AN OUTDOOR MUSIC FESTIVAL IN THE BIG APPLE, AND I MUST SAY, IT WAS A SIGHT TO SEE! THE UPLIFTING AND ROARING OF THE CROWD FROM THE FESTIVALPACKED OUT THE EVENT AT THE COMMODORE BARRY PARK IN BROOKLYN. MY FOUR FRIENDS AND I WALKED AROUND THE ENTIRE PARK AND NOTICED THE MEANING OF STEPPING OUTSIDE OF THE BOX WITH FASHION AND CULTURE AT AFRO PUNK. MET SOME REALLY COOL PEOPLE, SUCH AS; FATIMA FROM AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL, IN CYCLE 10, SHE WAS SO SWEET AND HUMBLE. ENJOYING MUSIC FROM "THE INTERNET" TO FEMALE SINGER, "SZA" AND THE LIST GOES ON. I WAS SO INTRIGUED AND FLABBERGASTED OF WHAT I SEEN IN MY SURROUNDINGS. SO MANY PEOPLE CAME OUT IN THEIR CREATIVE FASHION ATTIRE, FROM BIG STRAW HATS, LACE SEE-THROUGH TOPS WITH NO BRA, COLORFUL HAIR, NATURAL LOCS, PUNKED OUT RAGS AND MORE.....! I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO COME UP TO RANDOM PEOPLE AND ASKED WHAT ARE THEY WEARING AND TAKE PHOTOS OF THEIR OUTFITS FOR THE EVENTS. THE SCENCE GAVE ME COACHELLA IN ITS HIGHEST DEMANDS! SEEING ETHICIAL STATEMENT WARDROBE; FROM HIPPIES, AFROCENTRIC QUEENS, REBEL PUNK ROCKERS TO ANIMATED CHARACTER INSPIRED LOOKS. I GIVE TWO THUMBS UP EVERYONE'S STYLE AND SWAG AT AFRO PUNK FESTIVAL. THE VIBE WAS CHILL, FREE SPIRITED AND HYPED ALL WRAPPED UP IN ONE! I CAN SEE WHY AFRO PUNK FESTIVALS ARE A POPULAR EVENT, BECAUSE ITS NO RULES AND REGULATION IN BRINGING OUT YOUR CULTURAL WARDROBE FLARES!! IT WAS DEFINITELY THE PLACE TO BE AND A MEMORABLE TIME TO EMBRACE! SEE MORE LOOKS OR PERFORMANCES ON www.afropunk.com |
