Kids are saying “preppy” when they mean “peppy” and it’s cracking me up…“Preppy” as in fun peppy clothes dynamic silhouettes bright colors etc…yeah sure, “preppy” 😂
“preppy” has been a style aesthetic for quite a while now and it’s certainly not whatever they think it is. It’s based on prep school uniforms. “Preppy” as in preparatory school. Obscenely rich kids. I don’t think they know this lol

“An Homage to my People”
I am half Lebanese. The world has not been kind to me.
I made this back in October. It is a piece for the victims of the Beirut port blast, and every other avoidable tragedy my people have suffered. A beautiful green skirt that carries the weight of forgotten handprints.
However, I made this after Israel began its genocide against Palestine. Being Middle Eastern, I know the piece will be seen by westerners as something related to that genocide, because individual countries do not exist to them.
This was not made for Palestinians, or any other of my suffering neighbors. But in being viewed as such, it has become a piece of solidarity as well as remembrance now. I wear it on strike days and on days where the fight feels slow.
Mourn the dead. Fight like hell for the living.
