LIGHT THAT FIRECRACKER !

THE NENE LEAKES LINE !

SAY WHAT YOU WANT NEGATIVE ABOUT NENE LEAKES , THIS WOMAN IS A NATURAL FIGHTER . I HAVE SEEN THIS LADY GET UP AND GO AND SHE IS NOT WORRIED ABOUT ALL THE NEGATIVE THAT IS SAID ABOUT HER . I WOULD LOVE TO USE HER BUSINESS SAVVY , AND NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO STEAL MY THUNDER , HER STYLE IS HER'S . FROM THE RHOA TO DONALD TRUMPS SHOW TO GLEE NOW DANCING WITH THE STARS AND SO MUCH MORE .SHE IS ACTUALLY SHOWING GROWTH , I THINK THAT IS WHY SHE HAS SO MANY HATERS . A LINE WITH HSN IS A GOOD MOVE , SHE COULD SOAR LIKE IMAN , QUEEN LATEEFAH AND OTHERS . HER STYLE IS ON THE LINE OF HELMUT & LANG AND THAT IS WHAT SHE IS BRINGING TO THE TABLE. A CLOTHING LINE THAT HAS COMFORT AND IS CHIC .WHAT DO YOU FEEL ?

HELMUT LANG IS A FINE CHOICE BEING THAT IT'S A STRETCH JERSEY KEY WORD BEING STRETCH .I PRAY ALL ENJOYS AND I THANK ALL MY READERS HAVE A HAPPY HOLIDAY .
