Today's post is all about that chic chocolate woman that walks into a room and makes a statement! Serving chocolate is an instagram page and brand that I started to uplift and empower brown skin beauties in a society where darker skin is not always celebrated. There was a time that being a fat, black, dark skin woman was the worst thing that you could be...in some peoples' eyes. We have definitely come a long way with beauty standards when it comes to skin color and size but we still have a ways to go. So, until then I am going to continue to rock my chocolate skin with pride and encourage you to do the same!

You can support the movement and make a stylish statement, all at the same time, with our Serving Chocolate statement tees! Quantities are limited and they sell out pretty quickly, so make sure you don't miss out!

Shop tees here!

P.S. I have more items coming soon to Shop Lace N Leopard, so subscribe to our mailing list to be the first to know everything!

Much love,

Serving Chocolate

I hear far too often women being downed because they are not small enough, cute enough, shapely enough and yes (still) light enough. It’s sad, but in 2015, colorism definitely still exists. Skin color is also a topic that floats around the blogger community as well, specifically, the topic of darker bloggers not getting as many opportunities or the same quality opportunities and recognition as some lighter skin bloggers. I promote self-love for EVERYONE. 

But I felt the need to create something that will EMPOWER and UPLIFT my brown skin beauties, in a world where we are constantly bombarded with beauty images that look NOTHING like us. So, to ALL my chocolate baddies (plus size or not): tag your Instagram and Twitter pictures with #ServingChocolate to rep for all of us around the world and for a chance to be featured on Lace N Leopard! Spread the word! And tag a brown skin beauty who’s serving up chocolate realness!!

Much love,
