A couple of days ago, I was delighted to host the kickoff party for the 1st Fashion and Philanthropy Distinction Defined. Mo Stegall and I interviewed from the blue carpet and chatted with some of the “It” guys of fashion in Atlanta. I learned a lot of mens fashion and so did Mo. The event was held at the beautiful Georgian Terrace hotel inside The Livingston.

I’m so proud of Ludacris for giving back to the community. Also at the party was Gabrielle Union, who chatted with me about her new tv series called, Flash Forward and also she just signed with Pantene for more hair commercials. She looked so pretty and I loved her hair. She had a light brown color with highlights. She is very fit, love her personality.

They make a cute couple! I asked Luda on the carpet about him being on the Martha Stewart show and he laughed and said that’s his girl. I was happy to see him cooking on her show, loved it. He gave me some suga too,ha!
After the blue carpet I went inside and mingled. I tried to purchase some things but left my wallet in my gym bag! I will support you next time Luda! Luda told me to stop over at Straits for the after party. Craig, Isoul and I got there and had some great food. The chicken lollipops were to die for, yum! I had a great time and thanks to Barry Florence for inviting me out! Enjoy the pics (some) provided by Paras Griffin Photography.
