10. Tracee in Kanye’s “Touch The Sky” Video
It would be a dishonor to her artistry to leave out this 70’s look from Kanye West’s “Touch The Sky” music video. She gave us a boot cut denim jean with a white crocheted top. The most important piece is a well crafted fro. Recreate this scene with your Nia Long and Kanye West.
Point is don’t play with Ms. Tracee Ellis Ross. She has been serving looks for years dashing down runways, red carpets, and television/film sets.
