Last summer, as I was developing my first collection for Saltie Rose, I took a trip to New York City. While there, I stopped into the Jones Road makeup store in Greenwich Village. Jones Road has always been an inspirational business story to me, having been started by Bobbi Brown in her 60’s after leaving her namesake company, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.
Jones Road creates makeup that is simple, clean, and works for all age groups—aspirations that parallel my vision for Saltie Rose. Born out of a desire to create stylish, yet functional pieces, Saltie Rose aims to empower women of any age to feel confident.
Having returned to NYC for a fabric expo a couple weeks ago, I stopped back into Jones Road. I had the experience of feeling that I, as an older woman, belonged. That is exactly the feeling I want you to have with Saltie Rose.
As I continue to learn about fabric and what is essential to women athletes, I also continue to discover so much about myself. Here's to embracing our journeys, defying expectations, and celebrating the confidence to try new things.
