Started March off Making Room at @shopberriez w/ @by.network💚. 

Being born a fat girly, im not new to the obstacles of shopping. Working retail for 9 years, I was able to learn that there is a section for me, its just always going to be in the back corner of the store. I am segregated for being fat. 

When I got introduced to @shopberriez in September, I knew this was a place made for me + womxn who look like me. I knew this was a safe space & I knew I was leaving with quality pieces. Thanks to @ezaks sourcing and curation🫂. 

One night in September, I yapped @nerdlikejazzy ‘s ear off about my awakening from an impactful convo I had with a man who intentionally works with a company that makes extended sizing. In October, I had another yap session about how I wanted to activate for Women’s Month & she pushed my pen. 

Told me make a deck & pitch it to her at @tts.agency 💚.

In my thoughts, journals, and eventually my deck, I knew exactly who I wanted to be apart of this moment. 10 women who I adore seeing do their big one every chance they get. 

I hosted a private shopping experience for these women to come shop in a space they felt seen + safe in. A true third space to just exist and not worry about not finding their size. A space they’re comfortable in. 

Everyone was provided a $100 gift card thx to @tts.agency, a @paintedblackstudios glass to sip some @drinkwynk out of, and a heartwarming cookie from @eatgoodnyc 💚🫂✨. 

To the women who showed up, thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting my invite. You ladies are stunning and so unapologetically you, the shimmer reigns on us all. Please dont ever stop shining. 

@ezaks thank YOU for your hospitality & for being down to partner with me on this. It meanssoooo much more than you know. The ladies cannot stop raving about you + the space! 

@nerdlikejazzy muva, thank you believing me. You provide me such assurance by just hearing me & guiding me to take one step further. From an idea to reality. You mean so much to me & I am so blessed to have you in my life. I love you. 💚
