Today, I was delighted to spend my afternoon with a few cast members from the hit tv series on OWN Network called, Belle Collective! The girls are back for their third season and they have been doing a few conversations around the country to meet their fans and more! Two of the ladies stopped here in ATL for a little tea and conversation at The Ginger Tea Room where they hosted a tea party! You guys know I’m all for anything girly so I couldn’t wait to make my way to Alpharetta, Ga to meet the lovely Southern Belles!
Today I got to see my darling friend Lateisha Pearson that I had the pleasure of meeting last year out for dinner! We got a chance to catch up and keekee for a bit! She looks fabulous and I loved her fascinator! I also got to meet Marie Hamilton-Abston! Both ladies went around the room and introduced themselves before we got to also have an etiquette conversation and training led by Carol Rey, owner of The Elite School of Etiquette. I learned so much today and plan on using my new skills when I’m out dining and more! See a few snaps from the event and make sure to tune in to the spicy new season on OWN Network EST Standard time at 7pm on Fridays!
