"Project Royalty: Pynk-Prom Drive"

ATTN: NYC and Baltimore City High School Educators and Administrators:


The women of Pynkberri are hosting our first annual Project-Royalty: Prom Drive and we need your help! Do you know a high school senior who is need and deserves to have their entire Prom wardrobe paid for? If so, we would like your support in encouraging them to enter our Project Royalty Essay Contest.

Why should one support Project Royalty? For a high school senior, living in an urban or small rural community, sometimes going to Prom is totally impossible. The fiscal cliff that has plagued our nation does not allow many parents to provide their daughter or son with the necessary items for this once in a lifetime event, which consequently results in their child missing one of the last chances to make memories with their senior class. The goal of this initiative is to provide high school seniors from NYC and Baltimore, MD with the prom attire of their dreams. Each candidate is chosen through an essay contest in which they must describe what they will do after completing high school to give back to their community.

The women of PYNKBERRI produce at least one community service event each year. Our mission is to cultivate awareness among the young professionals of today about the tremendous need to support the community. Being a part of the solution and NOT the problem gives people hope and drive for the future.

Project Royalty will be held on April 5th, 2013 in SOHO, NYC’s Greenhouse Club, 150 Varrick St. NY, NY 10013 from 6-11PM.

Attached is the essay form and rules. Thank you for your support.

Less Drama On BBW Season 5?!



Reality star Tami Roman is filming Basketball Wives Season 5 which will focus more on positivity this season she states.



" People are really going to be surprised at the approach we’re going to take this season because it’s more family oriented, not as much drama.What you've seen in past seasons was real, but that’s not how our lives are 98% of the time. We’re excited to show you more than just the drama.

 I’m a busy mom and I have a new show coming out and I’m focused on that. I’m really a loving person and you’ll see that on season five "


Ummm not sure if I believe there will be "NO" drama BUT I will be watching.. Guilty pleasure lol

Africa Fashion Week New York 2011

To further piggy back off that African street style look at the last African fashion week in NYC!http://vimeo.com/27176889

Street fashion in South Africa!

So I was doing some research for my company about fashion in Africa and I came across a gold mine! I simply couldn’t believe my eyes as I was flipping through the fashion-gasmic pictures on the screen. Style writer Helen Jennings shows us the unbelievable street style that’s in South Africa today, all in her new book "New African Fashion."

Check it out! --> http://goo.gl/xK2Tp

KELLy ROWland ... Owwww!

Wow kelly I love the new look! A lil sexy doesn't hurt anyone, especially if she doesn't do it ALLLL the time. I just only hope this was a PR shocker and its back to basics for my brown skin girl ;-)..

A letter to 2011..

When I was graduating from elementary school they gave me the "communications award", on it it said "the next Barbra Walters and Oprah Winfrey." Even at that age I knew the impact of that award. I understood why they gave it to me and I was conscious of my ability to connect. People grow up and think one day I'm going to be a doctor or a lawyer but I grew up just simply knowing I was going to be great. It's not about being self righteous or over confident, it's just knowing what you CAN do. There are many people in this world just like me who knew at a young age they would be special. But it's the individual who defines all odds, battles the hardest challenges, and believes so hard that they then make that dream reality. Great people go through great struggle because they can handle great success. It's been 25 years that Ive been in this crazy world. Now after 25 years, Oprah, Barbra Walters, and Larry King have moved on. They moved over just a little for me to fit in. The spot fits one size only. This spot is mines and it's my time now, hello 2011!

Sincerely
  PrettyBeau ;-*

HEY gUYS!!!! I'm the new intern ;-*

So I grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana and moved to New York City when I turned ten. Growing up here has made half my spine concrete and the other half full of magnolias and grits. I have a lot of dreams and with this life I was given I will work to accomplish them even to the last second breathing!  I AM A FOODIE! The only reason I probably love diverse cultures other than my own is because of all the different types of food!  I space out all the time, I love meeting new people and sharing stories. I talk more than the average person, which I am going to stop writing this bio because what was meant to be a paragraph would be twenty pages!

Celebrity choreographer Laurie Ann Gibson is kicking it high in these fly boots.

Laurie Ann is currently one of the judges on ABC’s Skating with the Stars.. I never really watched that show...   :-/ 

♫ Kanye West – Christmas In Harlem feat. Teyana Taylor & CyHi Da Prince

Ciara has a new CD ?!

Ok, so who knew ciara had a new CD out? I know if I didn't know you folks didn't know as well! Her CD came out on August 24th, and it's called "Basic Instinct" with nine tracks. I love me some Ciara, she's definitely the pre club mix that you put on when you're getting dressed. Her last CD "Evolution" did better than her first debut album. Basic Instinct's album sales are lower than her first and second albums, this album is going to need some major CPR. She has some great songs on the CD like, "Turn It Up (Heavy Rotation)" and "Speechless." Good PR people are hard to come by I tell you!!!! You can definitely make or break someones career. Ciara better be firing someone from her team, or restructuring it altogether! BET previously band her video "Ride" feat Ludacris. I think that might be the most promo she has EVER gotten on this new CD, what a shame.

I'm just saying... :-/

The Current letters from ...

Twitter scream!!!!

Name: @Divinepride

Location: NYC

Issue/Question: "why is it that when you're with a guy for a long time all of a sudden he just wants to be friends? what makes guys switch for more than friends to buddies?'

Answered by: PrettyBeau



The phrase its NOT you its me is bound to come up with this convo! And maybe that's simply all it is or maybe not. What's important is that you understand what he's trying to tell you. In a nut shell "he's just not into you anymore." Sounds harsh? well it is but know your WORTH!! If a guy is switching lanes on you don't chase after him in a horse powered engine miss, back up and give him space. You'll find another guy that wants to be more then just buddies in no time...remember its no rush just take your time.

Street scream!!!!

Name: Innocent HomeRecker

Location: BX

Issue/Question: There's a boy I've known all my life and we are really good friends. But lately I have been feeling different about us. I find myself looking at him as more then a friend and I think I may be in love. The problem is that he has a girlfriend :-/.. I really don't think she's right for him anyway. When I'm around him lately Ive been showing him that I feel different about us, and I
almost kissed him once. Should I continue my pushy ways? Or leave him to his girlfriend?

Answered by:

Pretty Beau

This seems like an easy answer but in reality its nOT. Everyone is going to tell you to Stop being a home wrecker and leave that boy alone. But I think its more complex then that. If you knew this boy all your life then you should have a clue into what his true feelings are. I say be direct and ask him (if its that important to you) if he's your true friend he'll tell you the truth. NOW!, if you're not ready for a response like "girl your crazy we are just friends" then keep your self silent, that just might be the end of a great friendship... even though things will never truly be the same since you know your true feeling for him, even if he's in the dark about them.

Train scream!!!!

Name: Confidence Killer

Location: BK -alll day

Issue/Question:
I have a friend that is REALLy full of her self and is always talking about all the things she has and how she looks. Is there anyway I can humble her a little? I really love her as a friend but she has people thinking that I'm self-centered as well ( GUILTY BY ASSOCIATION)!.

Answered by:
Pretty Beau

Confidence is great but cockiness is NOT! Since you still want to be around this chick you need to tell her how you feel (and everyone else around her for that matter smh). You should tell her sincerely from your heart what's up. Your girl should understand and be willing to look into it. You never really should want to change someone but sometimes its OK to help people improve for the better.

Pretty Beau...
