Two Dope Black Girls, One Old Atlanta: Blending of Homage and Fashion

By: sABREEN sHABAZZ @threepeatteach

When one thinks of the A-T-L, many think of loud fashion, loud women, and live-out-loud hip-hip music that coins the term Southern Swag. In many of those vivid explanations of southern charm, the A-T-L seems to allude that pizazz, that splash, that little taste of class that transforms most thriving cities…until now. Kirsten Daniel and Destiny Stokes the originators of Ateaelle, vowed to put a little more ELLE on the city, taking their love of the world-wide fashion magazine ELLE, and remixing with a word- play on the A-T-L.

Let’s check out their Fall 2018 line filled with all things for that South Belle…welcome to the Ateaelle!

This balancing of both worlds, new and old, not only gave birth to Ateaelle, but it also gave rise to a since of #BlackExcellence that drives the founders to pay homage to the culture of…Atlanta.

 

Signature body suit, with the OLD Atlanta logo that signifies a blend of new trends with the nostalgia of Old Atlanta.

The geography between Bankhead and Buckhead not only graces the front of Ateaelle’s tees, it also describes a life, stuck between two vastly different cities Bankhead, very poor, and Buckhead, very rich.

 An era rightfully entitled the “Old Atlanta” stands as the moniker for the line of t-shirts, sweatshirts, and active wear that has made their way into the wardrobes of many Atlanta natives.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
