A great father is irreplaceable. Especially grateful to have my Father here with us today and having a chance to celebrate his awesomeness once again 👑.

If you still have yours, hold him tight and appreciate the little moments. If yours has gone to heaven, I am sending special love and pray the memories remain special to you.

As a single Mom, I'm appreciative of the days reserved to celebrate me as a Mother. I see no reason at all for anyone to wish me a happy Father's day. I have never strived to be one.

I'm deeply thankful for the strong men who continually surround my son, deepen the values I'm teaching him and model the strengths that I pray he will someday display as a man and a Father.

Thank you Fathers! You mean the world 💙👑

Blessings to our Muslim Sisters and Brothers in this season and beyond 🙏🏾💖.

Eid Mubarak 🤗

This dress was designed and produced when MKCurvy was but a thought in the recesses of my mind. 9years ago to be exact. This dress has stood the test of washes, trends and the years...

Now as a brand, we stand by our heart to beautify and uplift women, trade with women, produce by women and empower women.

Style is personal. Style is classy. Style is for the greater good.

What's your promise to the world? 🌎

TGIF Queens 🎉

Happy Easter to you and yours 🙏🏾. May the joy of the risen Christ continually abide within your hearts and homes 🎉🎊🙏🏾❤️

This is a win for all black women
This is a win for all women of color
This is a win for all women 💖

Attaining this high honor shines a beacon of light to all of us as women. Congratulations to Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson on your confirmation to the Supreme Court of the United States of America 🇺🇸 👏🏾

The spirit of Black Women, Sisterhood and Perseverance fills our hearts.

If you hear the sound of the glass ceiling shattering into pieces — it’s because the stilettos of these women walk the talk that God dreamed for them.

There are pictures and there are photographs. This photograph speaks volumes and reaches valleys that we didn’t even know existed.

Job well done.
