**Sonnyboy Langston** is born.....
And so it begins...
I want to share my journey with you guys from ground up :-)
My accessories collection: "Sonnyboy Langston", has been born... Upon getting a possible opportunity for a photoshoot very soon, I decided this would be the perfect time to show what I can do and build my brand. First let me begin with the name... My dad's nickname is Sonny. I wanted to dedicate this to him. Both my parents are very supportive in whatever I do, but my pops is my pops :-). James Langston is my eldest cousin on my dad's side that intrigues me to the utmost degree. I wanted this to be a dedication to both of them because when they get together, the stories of how they grew up are priceless. I can listen to them AAAALLLL day. How they grew up in the country, Arkansas, and picked cotton, had farms, and grew up to be 2 of my favorite guys in my life. I want my collection to tell a story... Vintage pieces with a modern accent... Eyewear, Brooches, Necklaces, Hair Accessories, Shoulder Accents and Bracelets are hand-crafted and beaded by me :-)

On My Own...
SOOOOOO GUYS....
Yes it has been a while! So to update you on some things.... I have been talking about my jewelry for a while and now I am finally getting a push. Creating a few pieces and starting small is my goal and working my way up. Not unveiling the name yet, but it will be awesome...trust me!!! So I do have a couple of projects going forward that I am excited about. I will update you on my other projects as well as my jewelry as things go... so stay tuned... :-) BTW <=== I made a charm bracelet for my mommy to get in the groove of things... Fashion+Victorian inspired!!
Now since I have been back from NYC... I can say it was a learning experience. Love Love Love the people that contributed to my daily inspiration of life though. Betsey Johnson is THEE coolest designer I have met as of yet! Hands down! All in all it gave me a little nudge to love fashion and do ME even more! ....and travel... and paint more of course...
Updates to come my loves xox...
