{AfroBettye}

“I start my day off with people magazine every day,” confesses Sassy when asked what magazines she reads. I’m obsessed with [reading] everything. I know it sounds pathetic because I’m supposed to be a writer; I should be reading bell hooks or something important.” But don’t merely write this New York transplant off as a sciolist. Sassy is a poet pursuing her master’s, that loves Bettye Davis and 50’s movies. She classifies her style as “the Bettey Davis: afrocentric approach, whatever that means.” With its shapes and creeks of color, we think this outfit is quite poetic.
