I’ve been holding onto a little secret for almost a year now. I'm one of the creators for @target Target's Latino Heritage Month collection this year!! I have two designs super close to my heart that are NOW, finally available and featured at Target and as apart of the Target Más Que collection to honor my fellow Afro latinas, Afro Caribbean, Black/Latinx during Latino heritage month. I see your curls. And I see your caramel cinnamon dark chocolate glow. The little 6 year old me with her curly Afro is smiling, vividly dreaming that her older self would one day live out her dreams! I want my Afro-Latina’s to feel Seen, Validated, represented, prideful in celebrating their curls and skin color. I made this for kid me as much as I made this for adult me. I made this mini collection of my Puerto Rican grandmother Myself and my fellow Afro Latinas, my fellow trigueñas, those who are often tokenized or misrepresented, still not seeing enough of themselves represented in fashion and media. We need to amplify the parts of our natural beauty that isn’t always celebrated. our caramel and cinnamon skin, our natural curls, I hope my work can culturally inspire others to center what they want to see more of. Hope you dig the designs!
