Cynthia Bailey, Keri Hilson and India Arie have been spotted working on a new project all over social media.

Images of the Atlanta-based beauties began circulating Monday afternoon as Keri Hilson posted a series of snaps to her Snapchat account, which featured an energetic Keri posing in a line of exclusive sunglasses brought to her by Cynthia Bailey. Then, halfway through Hilson’s “story,” India Arie appears in the background. The three women were seen dancing around in black and white t-shirts that read “WORTHY.”

EXCLUSIVE: India Arie’s New Song ‘Breathe’ (Inspired by #BlackLivesMatter) Is Right on Time!

Yesterday, India and Cynthia have shared non-stop BTS footage of their “WORTHY” project on Instagram. Cynthia’s posts included hashtags that read “#worthy #comingsoon #cynthiabaileyeyewear #tiffanys #beautifulspirit #yesredlipstick 
#womensupportingwomen” and promoted Cynthia’s latest venture, Cynthia Bailey Eyewear while India’s account mentioned them filming a new video for Arie’s new song, “Breathe,” which premiered last week on ESSENCE.com.
