I was invited out to a Pinktabulous event presented by The Root and sponsored by Target. It was called, Young,Fabulous & Female, The Beauty of Success. I loved every minute of it and who wouldn’t love Jacque Reid as the moderator!

The event was held at the chic W Hotel in Buckhead and boy did it draw a huge crowd of ambitious women striving to be the very best they can be! The panelist included, SWV’s Tamara Johnson-Geroge, Actress Terri Vaughn, Editor in Chief of Jones Magazine, Tracey Ferguson and Founder of Black Girls Rock, Beverly Bond. They were all totally awesome and gave the women in the audience inspiring words, inspiration and advice on how they try to maintain their fabulosity!
Women were allowed to go up to the mic and share their fears,challenges,questions and more to the panel. I got up and asked the question on why when some we start to achieve our own goals, why do your close friends and sometimes family members disappear. They loved the question and most said because those weren’t your true friends anyway. I loved Terri’s answer, she said keep your circle small and get you a new set of friends that believe in you.

After the discussion we all celebrated, embraced one another and partied! I interviewed around the room and mostly everyone said they had a great time and glad they came out to the event. We drank red Targetini’s, snacked on Candy Cake Company’s cake balls, and hor’s d’oeurves. It was a great night of girl power in the room! I also loved the Target gift bags full of goodies! We got Target gift cards, a target note book and Miss Jessie’s Curly Pudding!
