Rock the Blue and White, Rock the... PINK?
Soon, Hampton University’s bookstore will have more than Steve & Barry’s to compete with in selling HU apparel. HU will be included in the second phase of Victoria’s Secret’s PINK Collegiate Collection which will debut in mid-December.
VS PINK is a sub-brand of Victoria’s Secret that debuted in 2004. Victoria’s Secret describes PINK as “a fully articulated lifestyle collection for young women.” It features loungewear, sleepwear, intimate apparel and accessories. PINK’s mascot and logo, a silhouetted pink dog, appears on some of the collection.
Marlon Wayans Promotes Obama
Funny man Marlon Wayans and actress Jurnee Smollett brought a three fold message to Hampton University Sept. 12: Register to vote, register to vote in Virginia and vote for Democratic Presidential Nominee Barack Obama.
Wayans, known for films like “White Chicks,” and “Scary Movie,” and Smollett, of “The Great Debaters,” passed the microphone between each other to voice their opinions on Obama, America’s first black male to secure a major party’s presidential nomination.
