Updated: Oct 1
Sunday Stories is back after a brief, but lovely hiatus!
We decided to step back allowing space to intentionally review our big vision for the Goldenbrand, incorporate your recent feedback from our survey, and set plans in motion for some big moves in the pipeline. Excited to share it all with you here first!
SCROLL DOWN FOR THIS WEEK'S GOODIES
Spotlight.
Meet Kristina Lacson McConnico designer of capsule clothing brand Lacson Ravello.
Kristina won my heart and support with her Fall 2022 season photoshoot dedicated to addressing age diversity in fashion campaigns. After working for large retailers such as Gap Inc., Bebe, and Target Corporation Kristina launched Lacson Ravello, a thoughtfully designed capsule clothing collection based in Oakland, CA. Kristina's designs are for the "confident and stylish Gen-X woman who refuses to let age define her. She believes "these are women in their 40s and 50s who are shaking things up, rewriting the rules, and creating their path through mid-life." They don't believe in quietly slipping into middle age. Kristina agrees. I know you'll enjoy this conversation with her as much as I did!

Extra.
Let's face it. You're going to scroll and social media, at the end of the day, is not the real enemy here. The way you interact with it is. I'm sharing my tricks to consume as a creator (not a consumer), make the scroll work for you, and hone your eye, while feeding your inspiration and creativity to get more of the good stuff — without falling into comparison and overwhelm.
