Black Girl Magic Continues: The Moshoodat Beauty Series Will Leave You Speechless

What began as a quest for inspiration, resulted in a beautiful collection of jaw-dropping, flawless imagery.  Moshoodat, a makeup artist from Brooklyn, NY collaborated with Joey Rosado, infamously know on social media as islandboiphotography, to create a stunning gallery that mixes the richest melanin complexions with bright, bold colors.  The self-titled series, “Moshoodat,” is beyond magical.

moshoodat-black-woman-series-owawa

The series began with a single photo of Moshoodat and gradually grew into a collection of 6 beautiful, unique models. “Each and every model in the series brought something the table… like their energies, love and compassion fed me! And most of all I wanted to show women of color how magical, strong, talented, beautiful and gorgeous we are! I want we, as black women to be put on a pedestal the same way we look at The Kardashians,” she stated.

Although the project is named after her, Moshoodat credits her photographer for a lot of her inspiration. “Joey is a huge inspiration. I was definitely on the verge of quitting makeup because I wasn’t really creatively satisfied and was kinda over it but he convinced me to just try out the ideas I always wanted to do.” she said.

Perhaps the most talked about  image in the series is Erica, a breast cancer survivor, who confidently exposed her scars for the shoot. Appropriately marketed during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, her image embodies the beauty, strength and resilience of today’s woman.

Moshoodat is the perfect example of what happens when you challenge yourself after lacking inspiration.  Black Girl Magic in running rampant throughout these images!  Visit our gallery to see the entire series.

Where to Shop for Jewelry in Miami: Asprey at The Setai Hotel Miami Beach

We’ve all experienced that sense of intimidation when going into a super expensive store at some point in our lives. We think: I don’t belong here. I can’t afford to even think about buying this stuff. Is security following me? Let me run! Here’s my advice: stop that.

When I was younger, my mom used to drive my brother and I through the nicer neighborhoods in Atlanta, and we would ogle at the gorgeous mansions. And just like that, I got it in my mind that I wanted to live in a mansion, and I started dreaming bigger. It was the same case when I decided to pop by Asprey, an internationally known jewelry company that has a retail location at the Setai Hotel in Miami Beach (2001 Collins Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139). Founded in 1781, Asprey has a long relationship with British royalty and holds a Royal Warrant for every British monarch and several other foreign heads of state. In short, their jewelry is fit for a Queen. So I decided to try some pieces on.

Now…I normally wear costume jewelry from Topshop and Aldo. I really don’t spend a lot on jewelry! It’s just never been a thing for me. But let me tell you when that ice touches your wrist…! I can see why Lil Wayne made a song called Bling Bling. There is nothing like it.

Diamonds can be simple and understated. They electrify an outfit unlike anything else. And though I don’t have diamond money at the moment (the snazzy set above retails at $100,000), let me tell you, I’m now dreaming of diamonds. I told the manager of the store, Emerald, that I would be coming back in a year to purchase those pieces.
Hold me to it.

I encourage you all to dream big. Give me one good reason why you shouldn’t have the best of everything in the world? I can’t see why not! And you deserve it.
Love + Light,

*Visit the Asprey store at The Setai South Beach located at 2001 Collins Avenue Miami Beach FL 33139 (Tel + 1 305 532 2990). Ask for Emerald! Read more about Asprey here.
