Yesterday, I had the pleasure of attending the Maven Presents: The Diva Series- "Angels". I was there to support the Thyck Troupe's founder and creative director Tressa Thomas. I'm a part of the Thyck Troupe of Chicago and I'm so proud to be in such a wonderful organization that develops, and fosters artistic talent within full figured women; but I will write about that more in depth later.
This event took place at the JBar in downtown Chicago and was a very classy and upscale effect. I met a lot of phenomenal women here and the networking was great.

Me! |
I wore a simple black dress that came to mid thigh, with a red blazer (even though it looks pink in most of the photos), textured leggings, and black ankle boots. I tend to like to keep my outfits a little funky (it suits my personality).
I had a wonderful time at this event and I look forward to networking with some amazing people in the future.
