Regardless of if you like my "style of clothes" or not (which I don't care) please do not tear women down and degrade them… Not cool peeps

Curry was simply sharing her preference of fashion and expressing that she rather keep the good stuff covered for her husband, the NBA MVP.
Of course, Twitter was set on fire. Ayesha was being called judgmental, old school, and more.

@RihIconicslay @ayeshacurry May be but I hate when self righteous young women assume that dressing like Hillary Clinton is classier.
