First week….

Well I will say navigating just creating labels was a struggle. But it’s ok I pushed through. I have my temporary labels on and I am taking orders. I am so excited to start this brand. Thanks again for the support.

Stylist Spotlight: J. Bolin

He has styled some of our faves for years now. He is turning into a force in the industry and has his own agency, boutique and home design line coming out. I have followed him for years now and his journey has definitely been inspiring. I wish him continued success. Just wanted to highlight some of his work today.

Have Courage and be hopeful!

It’s been a crazy week , this weeks outcome was definitely disappointing. But I remain positive that God has a plan! I’ve also come to realize more every day I really wanna work for myself so I am grinding to save so I can buy inventory to launch j.elaine by end of Feb 2017 or earlier. Can’t wait to make real relationship with great ppl and brands! Here’s to hope, let us not be fearful of our future, God got us! Happy Friday!

Happiness

On this journey to truly do what I love I’ve been facing a lot of struggles, a lot of closed doors, a lot of just tribulation. but I have to stay positive I have to reach My goals!  I have to keep pushing no matter what it looks like! No matter what I am going through right now, it’s necessary.  I need to make sure that I keep myself , my mindset in a place of positivity….to truly do what I love and achieve happiness….

The journey begins…

I have nothing to lose anymore ….professionally my work life has been unfulfilling. Today I start my entrepreneurial journey as a Girl Boss. I refuse to hold back on my dreams any longer. I’ve never wanted to work for anybody ….my livelihood being in someone else’s hands has always made me nervous. So I invite you to follow me on this journey as I focus on what my purpose is and what dreams I want to turn into a full time career. I am putting all fear aside and I am walking this journey in faith and hope it helps someone else! Much love! Have a Great day on purpose!

David and Tamela Mann

I’ve been watching and listening to these two since I was a kid! They have beautiful voices and are hilarious in comedy! Such an inspiration to see a couple grind from the bottom to the top of their game! All while keeping God First! I pray for their continued success!
