came across an interesting new blog today...

Style Noir: Haute Design from the Diaspora
A compendium of Black contributions to modern lifestyle, art, and design.

It just launched in March and though it hasn't been updated in a month it's worth a look. I can't find the blog's author name anywhere. Check it out.

Love her! I posted about Andrea Pippins' blog, Fly, when I first discovered it. As I recently posted on her site, I read a lot of design blogs, and though I enjoy the objects, tips, images, etc., black designers, stylists, creative people--black anybodies--are non-existent in that realm. It's so very tiresome. Fly is fabulous because it's so wonderfully integrated. Definitely check it out.

Check out this profile of Andrea at another great site, ymib.com.
