Phase 1: Top 5 Speakers

There are so many speakers that I am looking forward to seeing at Invest Fest this year. Just to give you some insight on where I will be and when (hint, hint), here is the list of my Top 5 (for now):

  1. Issa Raye

  2. John Hope Bryant

  3. Fawn Weaver

  4. Dr. Cheyenne Bryant

  5. Ian Dunlap, Rashad Bilal, Magic Johnson, Tabitha Brown & Matthew Garland

Okay, so that was more than 5 but it is really difficult narrowing down the list of so many talented individuals that I know of and that I want to learn more about.

Phase 2: What to Wear?

Food, Clothing and Shelter are the fundamentals of our existence. We spend a majority of our waking hours focused on the pursuit of these things. As a designer and seamstress eager to “show” people my creativity along with the quality of my work and craftmanship, my dilemma continues to be “What to Wear? Should I wear something that I have already made or should I create something new? Would you like to help me decide?

Phase 3: Seize the Moment

Operation Hope Giveaway

Phase 4: Something New

It will be cold at the GWCC so I am taking the opportunity to make something new that I will be wearing with a never-before-seen scarf one of the 3 days of the festival.

I am making something old new again by recreating the design of the Vintage Flirty Fitted Button-Down Short-Sleeve Shirt. This long-sleeved version with button cuffs in a stretch Fuchsia will be available Fall 2025 to keep you nice and cozy when there is a chill in the air.

Phase 5: Stay Ready So That You Do Not Have to Get Ready

Say less! Stay tuned for the Invest Fest 2025 Recap coming soon!
