SWaGG 101

Swagger is the confidence exuded as a reflection of ones dress, shoe game, attitude, and how one handles a situation.
You can learn how to dress just by jocking my fresh
Jocking jocking my fresh
Jocking jocking my fresh
Follow my steps, it's the road to success
Where the niggas know you thorough
And the girls say yes
But I can't teach you my swag
You can pay for school but you can't buy class
School of hard knocks
I'm a grad
And that all-blue Yankee is my graduation cap

--Jay Z////Swagger Like Us

The Best in Urban Fashion 2011 Is Here!

Some have become black fashion designers and others have started their own television programs, many african american black high fashion models earn a high yearly salary which allows them to have a jet setter lifestyle to new york, london and milan, they set the trend for the latest looks and styles in high fashion. Most ethnic models are placed under the category of exotic, so if there is not a huge demand for this look, this would be another reason for the lack of black fashion models.
