The WOEM Awards: Women Of Empowerment



In how many instances are women recognized for what we contribute to the work place, organizations,  the community, or the world in general? Slim to none, right? Those accolades are mostly reserved for men of distinction; well it's time to give it up for the LADIES! 

The WOEM Fashion Show And Awards:

On February 14, I was invited and received an award from the Women Of Empowerment or The WOEM; hosted by Harlemvetz entertainment/ WOEM PROJECT at The National Black Theater in Harlem, NY.

The WOEM is dedicated to the uplifting, educating, and honoring women from all walks of life, and it was my honor and privilege to among their distinguished honorees. 

Celebrating with women of distinction, other honorees included 
Celebrity honorees MC Sha Rock and Roxanne Shante and celebrity hosts Ms. Toi and K.O.V.E. Listing to these women speak about their lives and experiences I felt the impact of their sacrifice for their craft, and respect for the jewels they were dropping on a new generation of young entrepreneurial women who were walking in their footsteps.








They just didn't drop knowledge on the audience members, they also showed us another side of empowerment through the talented artists that were on deck throughout the event. 

Among the performers include female rappers/groups, musical performances, dance performances, singers, and a special premier of 24 Hour CATWALK from designer JustRaymona Envnewyork. 










Not every event is perfect, and there were some unanticipated snafu's throughout the night, but not enough to dull the light that was shining on the honorees, performers, and all the people who worked behind the scenes that made it possible for the show to come together.

Attending an event such as this was a very proud moment for me, and I can't wait to see what's planned for next years fashion and award show!
