I'm not sure if Michelle Harper's outfit is a dress over harem pants or a jumpsuit, but whatever it is, I NEED IT; The Grand Taxonomy of Rap Names will either increase your understanding of hip-hop culture or confuse the heck out of you, but it's totally worth it either way; I swear I've wanted an upstairs-to-downstairs slide in my house since I was 8--see mom, it is possible; loving this brightly colored,...
