J O U R N A L — Behind the Scenes

 In Fall of 2020 I started to really take the notion of starting my own clothing line seriously. It had always been something I wanted to try my hands at in the back of my mind, but timing never felt...

We haven't shared behind the scenes photos from any of our photoshoots in awhile, so during this week's photoshoot with our new model, Emily, we made a point to snap some photos of what our shoot days are like.  Shoot days at...

We are finally reopening our studio & showroom and I wanted to share some progress photos and some shopkeeper ponderings about reopening. Nearly a year ago we had reopened our retail shop on SE 2nd Street after being closed for...
