Let me just say this. I've met so many people on the internet last year, but have you ever met someone and then boom y’all are sisters? That’s my connection with Ranata.

Lynn of New Orleans Housewives
Phot from Lynn’s Instagram
I met this beauty through some mutual friends and we connected immediately. Lynn is a wife, blogger, even planner, and one of my favorite foodies. Need a restaurant recommendation in New Orleans? Lynn's your girl. She knows where all the bomb spots are. One thing I love about Lynn is what you see is what it is. She shows her real life . This lady is beautiful, outgoing and the life of the party. Lynn hosts a monthly girls night out networking event and it is EVERYTHING! The events are always fun, mostly because Lynn is such an amazing host. She provides a space for women to connect, shop and sip on curated cocktails. There’s always exclusive giveaways also. She's not all events though, she also has a blog where she posts everything from motherhood to the best cocktails to order. Lynn is amazing, but I mean don't just take my word for it.

Another instant connection was made with this black girl magic. Janique is a mother, wife, blogger and owner of Krewe Natural Hair products. Listen, she really is everything. Janique is super sweet and so much fun to be around. She is very educated in natural hair and will point you in the right direction when it comes to hair. Although she has her own products, which are amazing may I add, She is not salesy. She is very confident in her products, but if they don’t work for you she won’t force it, but she’ll tell what may work for you instead. Besides a hair care guru, she’s also a writer. Janique blogs about everything from natural hair care to motherhood. This lady is dope in real life and you need to follow her.
