It’s Friday. Time for a little fashion/What I wore action w/Trina and Aracely
Earlier in the week I had the opportunity to attend an event hosted by Dermalogica and learn about their new space here in Atlanta. In depth post coming next week.
I wore:
Blouse/Jeans/Bracelets/Necklace: Thrifted Jacket/Belt: Forever 21 Boots: Don’t Remember Purse: Gifted
On January 15, 1908 Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. was founded at Howard University in Washington, D.C.
If you are on social media and not a member I am sure some are wondering what is the big deal. Alpha Kappa Alpha was the FIRST sorority created for African American women. Our history through the past 106 years is rich and runs deep in the organizations mission to be of “Service to all Mankind” From the Great Migration to the civil rights movement to the issues plaguing our communities today Alpha Kappa Alpha women have been and will continue to work in the trenches of our communities educating and making life better for all mankind.
To have the desire, go through the process, and have the privilege of joining the sisterhood is something to be proud of. So just let the AKAs have this day!!
Happy Founders Day Sorors!!
….and a happy belated Founders Day to the phenomenal women of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. who celebrated on January 13.
This weekend was busy for sure.
Started off Saturday serving with my Sorors at the Atlanta Community Food Bank sorting can goods to be distributed to needy families within Atlanta. Our efforts help feed nearly 15,000 people. What a great way to start off a Saturday.
I know, I know it has been a long time since I’ve been over here but I had good reason!
If you follow me on Instagram or my personal Facebook then this isn’t new to you but for everybody else….
On Sunday I was initiated into the The First and Finest Sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated.
Here it is Tuesday and I am still very much beaming at this accomplishment. Thirteen years years ago I made up in my mind that I wanted to be an AKA for a ton of reasons that I won’t go into. Life got in the way and the fact that I wasn’t able to seek membership during my college years didn’t derail my dream. About 5 years ago I started this journey and it ended on Sunday when 14 of us, known as the Dream Pearls were initiated into the Psi Alpha Omega Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated.
Maaaaaaaaaan, I can’t tell you how good this feels, cause truly many are called but few are chosen! Here are a few photos. They aren’t the best but they captured this once in a lifetime moment just fine.
