You Can Now Pre-Order The Telfar x UGG Collaboration By Nandi Howard ·November 26, 2020November 25, 2020

For all of the lovers of the Telfar shopping bag, the brand has partnered up with UGG for an exciting collection. Fresh off a sold-out summer, Telfar has positioned itself as a label that is introducing a fun new way to shop and have access to luxury items. UGG has managed to solidify its customer base year round with its cozy footwear. This partnership, while at first was arguably unexpected, has turned out to be the fashion cure everyone needed.

To kick off the capsule, the UGG X Telfar will be launching a 24-hour-only pre-sale event on Monday, November 30th beginning at 9:00 AM EST. The UGG x TELFAR small Shopper and nedium Shopper from the collection will be available for pre-order in a genuine chestnut suede and creamy shearling. This summer, the Telfar shopping bag demand became so high that the brand introduced its 24-hour module where it allowed customers to shop any bag, any size for 24 hours with a guaranteed delivery before the new year.

Adapting the module, the Telfar x UGG Small Shopper and Medium Shopper will include two shipments once purchased – a Telfar Christmas card that arrives before Christmas Eve and the bag guaranteed between March and Juneteenth 2021.

The pre-order event will take place on the brand’s e-commerce platform, shop.telfar.net.

Despite being dubbed as the most wonderful time of year, the holiday season is infamous for triggering feelings of sadness in many individuals known as the holiday blues. Not to be confused with clinical depression, the holiday blues are characterized by increased but temporary feelings of sadness that last from November to December.

In a survey conducted by the National Alliance on Mental Health, 64 percent of participants reported that they are affected by the holiday blues. Twenty-four percent of respondents reported that they are affected significantly.

The holiday blues can look different from one person to the next, people often report experiencing feelings of dread, anxiety, and sorrow during the holiday season. For some, the previous loss of a loved one can make the holidays particularly difficult. Others find that increased financial pressure or anticipated conflict with loved ones at family gatherings is what causes the most duress. Here are 10 ways to beat the Holiday blues before they take over.

Rest

While the holidays generally symbolize an end-of-year winding down period, it is during this time of year when people find themselves overextended the most. Many companies require employees to partake in end-of-year tasks and performance evaluations. Additionally, people often have extra added responsibilities such as holiday shopping, hosting out-of-town relatives, and preparing festive meals. In the midst of all of this craziness, it’s important to rest.

A New POTUS & A New Grindhouse Broadcast! Airing This SUN, 6pm: Filmmaker, Hilton Ruiz (Zombie With A Shotgun) Stops By; Biden & Harris; Unexplained Radio Waves? Chapelle on SNL; Kitty’s Pryde is Canon & More

http://www.afronerd.com/2020/11/a-new-potus-new-grindhouse-broadcast.html



Wow...was this a tough year.  And now after this election cycle, perhaps the zeitgeist will pivot toward a different, if not inclusive direction. Welcome to another umpteenth installment from the Afronerd Radio engine, broadcasting through the BTalk 100 platform.  It's Grindhouse Sunday, people! Check us out this afternoon at 6pm eastern with your steadfast AFROnerdist hosts discussing the following issues:  well it's official (mostly) that this nation's president and vice-president elects are indeed, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, respectively. We give you our first impressions and predictions for this landmark presidency and how it might play out for folks of color and beyond; noted filmmaker and friend of the show, Hilton Ruiz stops by to discuss the latest goings in his Zombie with a Shotgun universe; with a controversial election going on, I guess unexplainable interplanetary radio waves don't rate, huh?;  legendary comedian and social commenter, Dave Chappelle made another appearance on SNL-first in '16 at the beginning of the Trump regime and now at its close....interesting;            


It is now canonical that the X-Men character, Kitty Pryde has come out as bisexual, oh and least we forget, DC's upcoming future Flash is non-binary-my are these interesting times in comic book publishing. Star Trek: Discovery, too, has introduced a non-binary character;  it seems that actor, Stephen Amell is none too pleased about the rebranding of his vaunted "Arrowverse"  to the CWverse; iconic Star Wars actor, Mark Hamill shared a pretty funny, if not apropos meme highlighting our recent election:   


Not only is Netflix raising their prices but they're also tinkering with conventional TV like scheduled programming; and lastly, our thoughts concerning actress, Ann Hathaway's apology to the disabled community for The Witches reboot and then there's Johnny Depp's loss in the UK courts.  Call us LIVE at 508-645-0100.
