What I adore about her designs is that they're a reflection of her romantic, old soul. Since then, her pieces have been a mainstay in my accessory lineup and I've loved watching her brand grow. Considering much of my style is quite classic and timeless in nature, she felt an affinity between her designs and my aesthetic - and after one look through her beret selection with dramatic oversized bows and gem-tone turbans, I couldn't agree fast enough. I was first introduced to the French hair accessories brand Brothers and Sisters a few years ago when its founder, Alice, sent me a personal note. Top image via Monrowe // Second image via Imad Eduso // Third image via Monrowe Brothers and Sisters So tell me, I'd love to hear your favorites - let me know in the comments below! Of course, it should be noted, this list of brands is far from exhaustive and I'll certainly keep adding to it in the coming weeks. Much like my typical ad placements, I'll treat them as fully-fledged features, highlighting details, craftsmanship and the brand story - in hopes it helps bring them to life for you all. Supporting Black-owned brands, particularly during a global pandemic and beyond, helps send a message of inclusion, representation and solidarity, not to mention it can directly impact brand investment/growth and retail placement, which is why in the coming weeks, I'll be featuring quite a few of the brands listed below in my "regular" editorial content. As an avid, discerning shopper, I pride myself in being able to share interesting and unique brands with you all - it's one of the things I enjoy most about running this platform, so the fact I've failed in being able to truly provide diversity in that brand lineup is a failure I don't take lightly. And as far as my commitment moving forward, I realize the power in spending habits and it's something I want to be much more intentional and deliberate about in the future. So while I love Brother Vellies, Cushie and Oma jewelry (and you should certainly shop them still - I know I will!), I wanted to make today's list somewhat distinct in hopes you discover something different.Ī lot of these brands, I discovered thanks to friends and influencers whose style I really admire - I'll try to note them accordingly below. Rather than rushing my roundup, I decided it made the most sense to cull through all the brands over this past weekend to best decide which were the strongest fit for my style - while also trying to avoid duplicating a lot of the names you've liked already seen on a lot of similar lists from other influencers. On top of that, a lot of you guys started sending in more brands via DM and email that once I started reviewing my "short" shopping list, I realized I actually had a lot of research to do! Initially, I wanted to share this list of Black-owned brands on Friday - and started immediately reviewing my own shopping habits with a handful of brands that I've already been supporting over the years, as well as a handful of new-to-me names recommended by close friends.
Hehe.Today's post is coming a few days late. I do suggest that if they want to get a real one and they have the means to pay for it then they just need to go directly to the store. Like how yours and mine vary eventhough we both have store bought items, it might just confuse your readers altogether. However, a disclaimer I think is needed here that these are your opinions and observations. The sprays and connectors also differ so it got me thinking that probably, all of them differ depending on where it was manufactured, maybe?Īnyway, good article. What they have here in Manila are lighter ones based on a bottle that my husband bought from T3. One bottle that I got from Nordstrom, the cap was heavier but they fit on the other bottles on display that they have because I saw the SA interchange it. Some of your points, I definitely agree with like the lousy packaging, recycle logo sticker and such are fake. I dont think they have a particular strict standard when it comes to packaging as they differ in several countries which I got mine in.
Its also pointed out on one blog I read that it doesnt always come with just the black tissue. I have one from Rustans and I got it with the cushion, pretty sure that’s authentic. I also have original Jo Malones that I bought abroad and might I add that both the foam cushion and/or the tissue are being used for their packaging.
