| Introduction | Ashe, Shalom, Peace, As-salamu alaykum, Habari Gani, Greetings, Waaaad uuuupp!! Im a 20 something year old that loves to engage in conversations about black consciousness. I am a true Pan-African to the core. I am also a girly girl. I love spending time with my family, empowering women, reading, doing my hair (and nails) and getting dressed up! I figured there might be other ladies out there just like me; thus the Girly Consciousness Blog was born. The possibilities of topics that will be discussed on the blog are endless since I love to read..and write...and talk! I hope you enjoy the content provided on this blog and I'm looking forward to connecting with other Conscious Girlies out there! |

You've been invited to a fancy ball but the only thing you have to wear is an orange wooly jumper. What shoes do you wear?
The flyyest shoes that are in my closet! I like gold so I'm pretty sure It would be a gold stiletto of some sorts.
