It’s Werking Women Wednesday!

Can we just talk about how important it is to have a meeting of the minds?

Not only is it productive, allowing you the opportunity to bounce thoughts off one another, but when you’ve got the right team, it’s a great energy booster!

High fives, laughs…then get back to business👑🐝😏

We were discussing social media strategies in this meeting (some gems in our Stories⬆️).

What are y’all working on today?

The Versatility Corset is the most requested piece of our collection and you will quickly find out why.

When you wear this corset, you will feel powerful, sexy and secure.

WHY WE LOVE THIS PIECE:

1. Adjustable straps can be worn straight or criss-crossed.
2. Ruching in the back provides extra stretch and snug fit.
3. Flexible styling options - pairs well with your fav top, dress, pants, oversized blazer
4. Made with high quality African wax cotton by expert tailors in Congo just for you.

When ordering, you can choose between a front zipper or a classic lace-up finish for your corset. I personally love the lace-up because of the drama of adjusting the strings for the perfect fit 😅

Still available in green, blue, red.
