-
My therapist said I should get a hobby and I was stumped cause I’m not real ‘hobbyish.’ I saw a book about altering t-shirts and I said, ‘hmmmm…’ So I practiced using those old vacation shirts girls get and only wear to sleep in. I began ripping, tying, shredding until I was comfy enough to try my ‘hobby’ on THE 2Pac Shirt… I had it on one day and a store owner asked where I got the shirt, I gave the Readers Digest Version, brought some into his store… The Blue Jean Buyers Vintage T-shirt to sell…was asked what my ‘Label’ was… didn’t have one, but good thing the Superbowl Party we’d gone to had us giver ‘Stage Names’ for their bid board and mine was justiceSwagga. The owner of 7th Heaven saw my stuff in the first store and called me, so I now have them there too. It’s been crazy, outta control, never would’ve thought ….
One thing’s for sure~Strippers and Sorority Girlz LOVE’EM
…which is one reason I chose to donate 10% of every sale, to an organization whose sole mission is to STOP Human Trafficking in the Sex Trade.
