Little Wayne continues to be stupid-says racism doesn't exist because people of all races attend his concerts-yeah, that's a good measure of racism.

I heard this interview.  He sounded terrible.

Alexis arquette has died.

Miley Cyrus will never walk the red carpet again, because she just realized people around the world are suffering and she officially can't handle it anymore.

Also blac chyna is having a girl with rob kardashian.

Also t-swift and that guy are done, supposedly because he wanted to be more public and she didn't.

Kylie Jenner getting flamed for appropriating black culture again with a do rag

Chris brown also sits for national anthem

I truly do not understand why she still is around. And now she's on The Voice. I usually don't really care or get worked up about "celebrities" but she really irks me.

50 Cent is throwing potshots at his son and his son's mother on IG for the 846th time. I cannot stand him. I am really glad I quit Power. Although, I cannot lie, I miss it . But he's too gross. His son always keeps it classy, I don't know how he does it at his age.

I heard parts of the Lil Wayne interview on the radio yesterday. I thought I was going to crash my car my eyes were rolling so hard. I don't have an issue with a celebrity taking a stance on an issue and voicing it, but I do not understand seeking out celebrities to ask their opinion on issues. Like did they really think he was going to have something profound to say? Why should anyone care? Why is he still around?

I'm excited because I have at least heard of everyone mentioned so far. I still don't understand who Blac Chyna is or how she became associated with a Kardashian, but at least I have heard of her. What does she do anyway?

50 Cent is the worst human being. I cannot WAIT for him to get his comeuppance.

I wish they could fire him as executive producer....can they do that?

I don't know but it would get me back for sure.

Ha! I just posted a comment agreeing with you!

Ha!

They're all its bodyshaming blah blah. No, it's not bodyshaming. The dress is inappropriate for school. I don't care that she has curves. I've got them too, and I wore nice dresses to work when I was working, but a) they weren't too tight and b)the fabric was not skin tight.

This is a situation where I see both sides and agree to some extent with both sides. On one hand, it's just a dress (or even jeans and a top) and if she had no curves, no one would be saying anything, so I see how that's unfair.  On the other hand, as @246baje pointed out, unfortunately, everyone can't wear everything. However, I think as a teacher, you have to be cognizant that you're working with children, who are goofy as all hell, and easily distracted.  But ultimately, I would fight for her right to wear what she wants (within reason), even if she wears things that I wouldn't wear in her shoes.  Because if I were a teacher, I personally would not find it in good taste or judgment to wear these outfits.

I'm going to need Uncle Denzel to take it down about 8.5 notches.  He's going to mess around and get a good old fashioned Bill Cosby shunning if he keeps up this 'tude.

Lol! People seem surprised by his attitude, but I *knew* this had to be pissing him off. Denzel has been crotchety since like "The Pelican Brief." And not just for people to be messing with him but to be messing with him about the one thing no one could ever fade him on? I know he was cussing up a storm, "Training Day" style!

Stop it! He looks fine! How old is he, like 65? And don't do Reuben like that. He was the OG fine uncle, after Billy Dee, obviously.

Yeah I don't get the argument that because someone with no boobs and ass could wear a body contour dress and not look inappropriate that saying she looks inappropriate in this dress for school is wrong.

That's the whole principle behind dressing for your body type. Everyone can't wear everything and look appropriate for the setting.

Also I take the clothing advice from non-WOC on GBCN with a large grain of salt. Someone was recommending essentially ponte leggings for work a few weeks back.

And I thought that's why the young techs are walking around with all their breakfast on display because people think putting fake back pockets on leggings makes it work appropriate.

Thank you both! I was surprised at how many people thought that at least that pink dress was okay for school. She looks amazing in it, yeah, but there are things I look amazing in that I know I can't wear to work because its not appropriate, including stuff I think is too tight for that.

I'm also strongly in the "leggings are not pants" camp, and although I wear leggings all the time during the winter here cuz its fucking cold, I make sure my bits are all nice and covered, so it basically looks more like thick tights under a dress or tunic. 

[DesertMoon]

Her body is absolutely divine and sure that dress is too tight for work, I wouldn't, but she looks equally as sexy in jeans so....I wouldn't be too bent out about it.

I want to take back everything in her wardrobe and rebuy it a size or two larger and let some of the hems out a bit.

Then she'd look office cute, instead of beauty blogger cute.

But I don't judge her any more harshly than teachers who dress like bag ladies every day. Not everyone can be appropriately cute every day. 

And I see you ladies have an OOTD. Imma have to get on that.

I also love how she's trying this whole fashionista thing, tagging her pics as teacher style and then feeling some type of way that people are talking about it. Whatever, ma'am.

If she didn't have curves, I bet she wouldn't wear her clothes so tight.

Jeans come in all sizes and shapes. I have a few pair of dark wash that fit nicely and comfortably. I wear them to work on Fridays with one of my nicer tees that skims my figure, is long enough to stay around my hips without much effort or I wear it over a lace trimmed tank to keep it from riding up. And then I have at least one pair I have to suck in everything in order to squoze my ass in there. I wear them with a v neck tee with lace panels on the side and some three inch heels for date night.

Arguable, it's the same outfit on the same body. Jeans + tee should equal appropriate in any environment provided jeans are allowed. But realistically, that's not true by a long shot.

[persa]

I commented on CEP and I vote not appropriate, including the jeans and T shirt. All fitted dresses and jeans are not the created equal. We had this problem at work with our trainees back when they were allowed to wear jeans to work on Fridays. Some of them would show up with jeans with holes in them or low rider distressed jeans that showed their back tattoo when they bent down. I was all, no, you cannot look like you're going to happy hour when you come to work. They finally made it a policy not to allow jeans.
