Today marks a day that freed black people out of slavery.
If you're unaware of this holiday, here’s a quick history lesson:
How to Celebrate Juneteenth?
If you were wondering what to wear on Juneteenth, here are 3 things you can wear.
1. Incorporate the Pan- African Flag colors in your wardrobe.
The colors are red, black, and green. If you're not sure what they represent, check out this article that speaks greatly of the history of the Pan- African Flag colors.
2. Create or support a black-owned business who sells Juneteenth shirts.

If you need inspiration, use Pinterest as a guide.
3. Keep it simple and have fun.
Don't overthink this, its a celebration, its the summer so grab your favorite shorts or skirt and have fun styling and celebrating the black culture.
With everything going on, God has me on a style of looking into my roots and understanding my history as black women. With all the chaos, I am truly grateful for God of awakening my spirit man to know that there is so much more that needs to learn about myself and happy to be on this journey of discovery. Black Lives Matters, I suggest if you're black that God awakens your mind to know that you're better then your now. Oppression isn't just physical its mental as well.
Take care of yourself, understand your history, and I hope you're encouraged.
