We hope you’re enjoying the holiday season...and of course doing so in style like @rethabile_mendu and @afikile_blossom.

#RealBeautyMoment “I walk down the street and people always look at me like, ‘wow, you’re dark.’ I’m from Senegal, West Africa. I was teased as a child, but I overcame it. I always felt good about my skin. I always loved it. I feel like differences really make perfections. If you have a chance to be different, don’t ever change it. Difference is everything.” -Khoudia Diop Photo: Abi Ishola for BeyondClassicallyBeautiful.com #BeyondClassicallyBeautiful #BCB #Beauty #BlackWomen #Melanin #MelaninPoppin #MelaninQueen #BlackBeauty #BlackGirlMagic #BlackModels
