a year agoWhen it comes to Jacky’s Birthday it’s always an extravagant celebration 🎉✨! Every year we always take a trip somewhere or do something special. It’s really her birthday all month 😂 but we always tried to find time to come together to celebrate her “21st”(she’d never claim her age)! We are celebrating her differently this year & I wanted to do something special in honor of HER & her legacy! I don’t have any tattoos, been blessed with custom artwork, I have a J necklace, we celebrated her at her Pop up & on her bday but something in my spirit told me I gotta go BIG! For months I was contemplating if I should do a tribute shoot for her because I knew how emotional it would be for not only myself but anyone I ask to make it come to life! I prayed about it & I finally decided the week of her bday I was going to do it. I called up @lolowood_ & said “Lo! Which photos should I do of J?” And she said “You gotta do the last one because of how iconic it was & a Jnova one!” BOOM!
Being so busy, J use to always get mad at me when I’d forget to shoot a video when I was wearing @jnovacollection. I was always running late 🙈 I felt bad because it was never intentional. With that thought in my head I couldn’t let her bday go by NOT honoringy bestfriend the way my spirit told me too! I felt her say, “YOU BETTER DO THAT SH*T! It’s MY BIRTHDAY!” (She said it’s My birthday at least 444 times in one day) 🤦🏽♀️😂 I got the approval from Auntie Anne & 2nd one from DC & here we are! 🥺 This particular shoot made us all emotional because I really looked like Jacky(i didn’t expect it) I almost didn’t want to do it after I had the 1st outfit on but I’m happy I pulled together & did!
There’s truly no one like Jacklyn & I ask God to give me the strength to be the 🦄 she was! Her patience, her essence, humor, intelligence, kind and caring soul, a BOSS & out of this world mother! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH Jacklyn & I got your back ♾️ NO WHAT!!! Legends are never gone! HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎈🦄💖🫶🏽
P.S I know you DONT like me in blonde 😂 but I bet you feel DIFFERENT about it now! All I can do is smile thinking about your reaction 🥺🫶🏽 #JohWay #Jnovacollection #ILoveYouJ #MsJackyOh
