50 never looked so good. ✨

This past year, I fought breast cancer, survived treatment, came out stronger, and decided I deserved a celebration BIG enough to match the victory. So obviously, an amazing photoshoot was required. 💁🏽‍♀️📸

What a year it’s been: hard, humbling, empowering, and unforgettable. But here I am… thriving, grateful, stronger than ever, and officially entering my “fabulous survivor” era.

Cheers to 50, second chances, and taking up space like the Queen I am. 👑💕

Let me give myself a moment to shine. The last 6 months have been the hardest dealing with my breast cancer diagnosis, surgery, radiation and recovery. I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. My body and mind have gone through so many ups and downs and there are days that I want to dwell and ask God why me?? But then I remember that I serve an Awesome God and he wouldn’t put me through anything I couldn’t handle. I’m grateful that I made it through and I’m still here SHINING and healthy. So although my skin and hair are going through it and I’m not at my ideal weight, I’m still #BlackGirlMagic. This whole look was a vibe last night and I’m applauding myself for not looking like what I’ve been through!

All good things must come to an end. 🕊️

It is with bittersweet hearts that we announce the closure of Pinky Promise Champagne Bar. What started as a dream built by women, for women, became something truly magical—and that’s because of YOU.

To every woman who walked through our doors, raised a glass, and showed up for themselves and each other—thank you. You didn’t just support a business; you built a sisterhood. You empowered us, and we hope we empowered you right back. 💃🏾 🎶

Here’s to the conversations, the celebrations, and the courage it takes to dream big. 🥂

With love, gratitude, and pinky promises kept,
The Pinky Promise Team ✨

Movie night in Atlanta 9/10 experience 🖤🖤🖤 i love that it was a old christmas movie! I havent seen the grinch in 100 years, so with a little drinky drink, something to take the edge off and my girls? That was such a vibe. It was super cozy in there. Would def. Spin the block.

• Our server was Madsion and she did her big one 💕
• Customer service was “decent” bc baby we had to ask for things several times and my friends aint like that lol. Keep in mind though, thats not nothing too crazy. Id still spin the block!

📍 1080 Peachtree Street, Atlanta GA
