10 Ladies Who Embody #BlackGirlMagic

The phrase #BlackGirlMagic was created by CaShawn Thompson to celebrate the power and beauty of black women. And we love it!!

#BlackGirlMagic is taking over all of the social media outlets and while some dislike the phrase, we feel that it is a way for black women to express their style and essence. If we don’t uplift ourselves who else will do for it us? It is a must! #BlackGirlMagic is for that little girl who aspires to be like Ava Duvernay. Or the little girl who wants to be just like Jasmine Twitty, who became the youngest judge in Easley, South Carolina.

#BlackGirlMagic uplifts and encourages our black women to be the best that they can be and to live their lives unapologetic-ally.
