I got this dress on ebay! I love the lace at the top and the feel of satin fabric. It was perfect for this occasion, even though I purchased it just because I liked it... lol.
I was very proud of how I applied my dramatic eye make up! :) I matched the colors on my eyes to the periwinkle and lavender colored, rhinestone earrings.
Maria is such a beautiful queen! :)
Trophies, shining and heavy! Congrats to the winners!
With previous Miss Liberia! She was very kind to me...
With Blaise Sitchet, a film producer who offered me an acting opportunity and gave me many compliments. He, too, was very kind to me! I told him that I am a teacher and still in school; he replied, "Beautiful and smart! You don't belong in a school. You belong on tv!"
With Araba Dadson, President and Host of African Lifestyle talk show. She offered me the opportunity to share my story of surviving child sexual abuse on her show. I am very grateful...
Nice make up ! (:
