So far this awards season has been heavy on one thing: Ayo Edebiri. In just over a week the actress has won the Golden Globe, Critic’s Choice Award, and Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her role in The Bear, as well as the Emma’s Choice award for Most Charming Person for her role in Life. Oh, and the outfits have rocked too. And so I, dear Reader, have diligently compiled her most charming moments from this most momentous month. You’re welcome.

First, wearing Prada at the Globes…

…she bravely faced an onslaught of questions about her co-star, Jeremy Allen White’s, recent Calvin Klein underwear ad campaign not once…

…not twice…

…but thrice…

Then, when she won that night, she gave an acceptance speech that has now gone viral, in which she thanked “the people who answer my emails.” Even Taylor Swift agreed.

She was shocked by her victory.

Next was Critic’s Choice, where she wore a pantsuit by The Row.

She came prepared for that speech and “did amazing,” even thanking “Ireland, in many ways.”

She doubled down on the thanks for her Celtic cousins at last night’s Emmys, wearing custom Louis Vuitton.

She admitted that her younger self “didn’t dream of nights like this” and would just be happy to have dental insurance.

When Christina Applegate announced her as the winner, telling her, “Ayo, get your ass up here,” she gave Carson Daly her purse and phone for safekeeping.

Then she thanked her parents in her acceptance speech for letting her “feel beautiful and black and proud of all that.”

And at the end of the night, she just hoped Carson still had her stuff.

Congrats to Ireland’s own Ayo Edebiri for winning everything, including our hearts.
