Last Friday, I was honored to receive the 2024 Media Award from The Culture Creators. The ceremony acknowledges those making ways in various industries, from styling to CEOs. I was honored and humbled to be presented the award by longtime Fashion Bomb Daily supporter, Angela Simmons.

For the occasion, I wore a black designer, of course! Ken White out of Dallas, Texas did the honors, outfitting me in a bow dress that made me feel like a gift that keeps on giving!

As y’all know, I’ve been at this for almost two decades…! It always feels good to be acknowledged and seen. In a world full of trend, we are a classic!
