the worst beauty misconception dark girls are fed is that they can’t experiment with their look

you can go as loud as you want

image
image

or keep it simple

image
image

stick to the neutrals 

image

or go on all out galaxy chic

image
image
image

go out sultry

image
image
image

or go out sweet

image
image

cause your skin is so versatile

image
image

that there’s no such thing as “the right colour”

image
image
image
image

be a goddamn mermaid if you like

image
image

 dress down

image

or up

image

go natural

image

or not

image

you’ll still look flawless

so go ahead and shower in gold

image

or do nothing at all

image

cause at the end of the day

image
image

you’re still a queen

You wanna talk representation? Before Tumblr, I never experimented with color, hair or makeup-wise. I’d heard too many people correlate black women and bright colors as ‘ghetto’. Posts like these are So important. So incredibly important. 

Thank you

But for real yall some goddesses

what an amazing post 

The amount of things society tells dark skinned women they can’t wear because of their skin color is insane

Especially when I can’t think of a thing I was ever told I couldn’t wear because of my light skin color
