“Launch party”

“It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.”
-Leonardo da Vinci

As midnight hit on 12/05 (the reverse of my birthday 05/12) my blog officially launched, champagne bottles popped open, pictures captured the moment, and I was all smiles and overwhelmed with the support of my loved ones. Despite being tired from work, they all made it their duty to come show their support as I embarked on this new journey. I will forever be thankful to God for blessing me with such a great support system.

My mother is my biggest fan. I love her to death. Even my godson Kaiden (7 months) was in attendance. Love how he’s helping me hold up my champagne glass. Definitely a Kodak moment. He’s soooooo adorable, isn’t he? πŸ™‚

We look nothing alike, I know. And yes, I am 4 years her senior. I only appear taller here because I am on heels and she is not. At 5’7 1/2”, I am the midget of the family. Sigh!

Big thanks to God for His endless blessings. Thanks to everyone who participated and contributed to the success of this event. A big thank you to my photographer Nathalie for all her help. There can be no blog without pictures. Finally, many thanks to my current and future followers. I hope I will inspire you all to go after your dreams and do so in style. Shine bright!

BE BOLD. BE FEARLESS. BE VERSICOLOR. ALWAYS.
