Here Are The Pieces In Our Checkout Cart From Serena Williams’ New Clothing Line

Source: Michael Simon / StarTraksPhoto.com Serena Williams is truly the goat. Her baby isn’t even walking yet and the ultra-athlete has returned to tennis and is dominating the French Open while still managing to find time to launch her clothing line, Serena . The 13-piece collection features everything from work to weekend, all with an athletic flair. The line has American classics with Williams’ touch: including denim, athleisure, and even a “motivational” section. The “S” featuring two tennis balls and logo’ing her brand stands not only for Serena but also around the concept of an “s” word. The 23 Grand slam title holder states, “Everyone can have an ‘s’ word. Mine is ‘sure.’ My mom’s is steadfast.’ A really good friend of mine who has been through a lot, her ‘s’ is ‘survivor.’” RELATED:  Serena Williams Is Taking The World By Storm With A New Cosmetics Line Williams’ was eager to use her experience gained from two years of fashion school at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. The line has been in the works for the past two years, admitting, “in between there I got pregnant and had a baby, which took a little time, and then I got married, which I needed to spend time on that.” Source: Michael Simon / StarTraksPhoto.com She’s back with a force, giving us some 80’s vibes. She discusses her suit jacket with padded shoulders and states, “I love a shoulder pad. I put an extra one in mine to get a real structured, Balmain look.” She also complains about how much stretch is in jeans,”I feel like everywhere I go it’s just ‘stretch stretch.’ What happened to the amazing Levi’s? I wanted to bring that back.” With this being said, expect her jeans to have very little stretch. On the fit, she reasons, “I can fit in them. It’s enough [stretch] to get on and it fits very well. It brings the integrity of the jean back, and I feel that’s missing right now in all the jean collections.” The inaugural collection ranges from $40.00 for a logo t-shirt or high waist briefs to $215.00 for a gold and black anorak jacket . On the more pricey side, for the consumer that simply wants to support Serena, there’s an “S” logo pin for $14.99. The line goes up to XL in only some pieces, which I’m sure is dissapointing to her plus-size fans. There will be a series of capsule collection drops throughout the Summer and Fall, with over 75 styles ranging from $35.00 to $250.00. The collection drops today and here are the top 5 pieces that are in our checkout cart. ESSENTIAL MOCK CROP TOP, $75.00 Source: Serena / Courtesy of SerenaWilliams.com This black mock crop top is what you need to keep your New York style in full effect all summer. The piece is versatile and can be paired with jeans or a skirt and can be dressed up or down.

Modern Denim Dress, $205.00 Source: Serena / Courtesy of SerenaWilliams.com I’m obsessed with this denim dress!  Overalls are definitely trending and we love that she created this acid wash overall dress giving us a modern take on an 80’s favorite.

Cali Teens Under Investigation After “Black People Are Trash” Snapchat Vids Go Viral

(Photo Illustration by Thomas Trutschel/Photothek via Getty Images) Elk Grove, CA Community Responds To Student’s Racist Snapchat Rants With so much going on over the holidays, we missed this crazy story of a California teen who spread her hateful thoughts on Snapchat , only to have the videos go on viral, forcing her to change her number and go into hiding. Racist Snapchat Video From CA High School Student: ‘Black people are trash; they need to die’ https://t.co/Rw3yhgp1q7 — robertmckinney (@robertm47487300) December 31, 2017 The Elk Grove School District released a statement last week in regards to the video, which features two girls who were identified as Pleasant Grove High School Students: During winter break, school and district officials investigated and met with the parents of the students who created the widely publicized, disturbing and racially intolerant video ultimately posted on social media. Below is the letter from Superintendent Christopher R. Hoffman sent to Elk Grove Unified School District families and staff to provide them with an update. The letter reads, in part: A concerned Elk Grove community member, followed by numerous concerned community members, reported to school officials that a racially intolerant video allegedly involving two Elk Grove Unified School District (EGUSD) students had surfaced on social media. Due to the disturbing content of the video and subsequent public comment that identified the students as Pleasant Grove High School students, the report was immediately investigated and the families of the students in the video were located and contacted. All reports of bullying, discriminatory, intolerant and/or hateful speech are taken very seriously and school and district officials have been made aware of the situation. The comments made in the video are not supported by EGUSD in any way. This type of expression is hurtful and risks negative impacts to EGUSD’s educational environment and school community. School officials are currently working with the families and the students who made the video to help them understand the gravity of this situation and the consequences of discriminatory and racially insensitive expression. School officials will continue their investigation into this matter and will also prepare to ensure that social and emotional support will be provided for students when all students and staff return to school from winter break. Furthermore, plans to mitigate any fallout or disruption on campus will be put in place so as to maintain a safe, supportive and productive learning environment. Some of the comments made in the video include: “Black people are trash – they need to die…” and “when the police were killing all those Black people, I was so happy.” Only one girl is seen on video making remarks while her friend watches and laughs at the racist comments. Apparently this isn’t an isolated incident for the community: Do you believe the school district has taken adequate action? What college will accept this ignorant child as a student? Hit the flip to watch the offensive clips

Aruna Gilbert/ WENN Where is swamp possum thick Nicole Murphy??? Shannon Sharpe Responds To Interracial Dating Criticism Somebody call SKIIIIIILP! Shannon Sharpe’s got some words for people worried about his dating patterns.

Umm, Shannon Sharpe HAS a FIANCE pic.twitter.com/RNgorCR8Fs — N ID (@AquaLarocca) November 20, 2017 Now Shannon’s speaking out on his personal life in response to a tweet. When @cynthia_g1984 pointed out the hypocrisy of celebrating men like Lavar Ball and Shannon Sharpe who “exclusively date white women” while criticizing Serena Williams and Halle Berry for dating white men… Black Men accept LaVar Ball & Shannon Sharpe (who never dated black wmn) having white spouses & consider them pro black because, they spend part of their time talking about racism & part time sleeping with white women but, Halle Berry & Serena Williams are Sellouts & Bed Wenches. pic.twitter.com/ZfkICHAXqp — Cynthia G (@Cynthia_G1984) November 23, 2017 Shannon clapped back. According to him, it’s no one’s business who he’s with. “I don’t date for approval and don’t need you or others to confirm who or what I am,” said Shannon. Not that it’s yours or anyone else’s DAMN business who I date. I don’t date for approval and don’t need you or others to confirm who or what I am. Enjoy your day. https://t.co/3r4BIPBx3C — shannon sharpe (@ShannonSharpe) November 24, 2017 We can neither confirm nor deny that milds and Henn-dawg lovin’ Shay Sharpe ONLY likes women of the blonde persuasion.
