Hi there, I’m Marcella.

A 90’s R&B lovin, champagne sippin, football watchin, athleisure + sneaker obsessed turtle Mom living in LA.

Cheers m’ladies! Here’s the part where I tell you all about myself, which, if I am not careful, will be an entire Steven King novel that you won’t actually read. ;) So, I’ll try to make this somewhere between brief and a college essay.

We’ve established I love R&B, Veuve, and football.

IYKYK :)

 

I love Maui beaches and short walks to my fridge, finding my beloved New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc waiting for me. I have the palette of a toddler, so there will be no food blogs unless I decide to write about making the best grilled cheese; a culinary delicacy that I have perfected.

Culinary skills aside, I am here to help YOU. Now, this might sound random but here me out. I can help you with your style or your brand. As a 20+ year sales/retail professional working with brands like adidas, Nordstrom, Converse, and john varvatos,  I developed a passion for athleisure, streetwear, and sneakers.  I worked with the country's premiere, trendsetting sneaker, and apparel boutiques, where I learned the importance of finding your own style.  I also fell head over heels in love with merchandising which is a lot like styling someone, it’s all about putting together the right pieces, and creating collections that make you feel great. My Grandma Maxx taught me that.

When I was preparing for a job interview with adidas to be a Fashion/Trend rep, I went to my style icon, my Grandma, who was my go-to for all things fashion. At the time streetwear was trending so I asked her, “How would you define streetwear?”

When you’re walking down the street and everybody wants what you are wearing!!! We are always wearing what we feel great in and show it.
— Grandma Maxx

I got the job and while working with those fashion accounts, we often chatted about trends. She had impeccable taste, exquisite style, and beauty that resonated in any room. Above all else, she exuded confidence, which I believe is more important than any trend or style.

My regal Grandma Maxx.

My philosophy is simple, I believe everyone should wear whatever makes them feel good and confident! I do not believe in rules, lists, or abiding by any trends. Trends are merely suggestions; if they work for you, great, and if not, create your own.

 

My goal is to help you find your own style, take the overwhelm out of trying to find that perfect outfit, and, along the way, have some f**ing FUN!

And….if you are a start-up brand looking to understand how to get your product placed at retail (wholesale channel) I’m your girl!

 If life brings you troubles, drink some champagne, then your problems will just become bubbles.

My philosophy is more like a vibe…

You know that carefree feeling on a vacation with your girlfriends, sippin on champagne when we're thirsty (I told ya I was a 90’s girl:) an umbrella cocktail, laying by the pool, and feeling cute… that’s my vibe…it’s poppin a bottle of veuve for no reason other than you’re feelin yourself …it’s listening to your favorite song and dancing in your kitchen or closet… it’s gut laughter with your BFF because you both think you are the funniest people alive… it’s following the call of your disco ball… or owning a room when you walk into it…it’s anything that makes you feel free, alive, and excited!

 

Ultimately, I am about the freedom to be who you were before society told you who to be…

and a large part of that is wearing what you love with confidence, so whether you are trying to reclaim your sense of style or want to create a new one, I would love to help you on your journey.

And if you are a brand that wants to learn more about how to get your product placed at the coolest retailers, I got you!
