In African American lingo, the word up is often used to accentuate a position or an action. I would say something like, "She was all up in my business" or "I be up up in his DMs" (I mean, I don't be up in no one's DMs, LOL, this is just an example). You get the point. African American lingo is sometimes misunderstood as some individuals believe that it is a sign of unintelligence. My outfit of the day says otherwise though. Don't you think it's quite smart?
I call it "Up On The Prairie" as an ode to African American lingo and since the dress has poufy sleeves and a wild flower print, it reminds me of the show, The Little House On The Prairie.
