Small businesses, speed dating with a side of LadkiPower 💜

Introducing a twist on the classic #LadkiPower tee with our fav, the iconic @hamelpatel_. Through this LPxHamel limited edition collection, we want to put a face behind the power of a ladki. She is gorgeous, strong, intelligent, moves with power, speaks her mind, and charts her own path, all while paying homage to parts of her culture and background she deems worthy.

In Hamel's words: LadkiPower is the freedom in being yourself. Being unapologetic. Waking up to your power and owning it, even when the odds are against you. Many times easier said than done is living your most authentic self, allowing yourself to wear yourself with pride, giving yourself a chance.

A long time in the making from idea to conception, we'd love for you to wear and support #LPxHamel, make it a part of your WFH wardrobe, or rock it out and about as a conversation starter.

With love, the Brown Girl Mag team 💜

Back to regular programming with yet another Small Business Saturday line-up worth shopping from. In all transparency, the businesses we feature have paid a small fee in exchange for brand awareness. But it'll be worth it, we promise. 💥 So, if you or someone you know has started a biz and needs some love, email us at sales@browngirlmagazine.com. (We'll also be shamelessly plugging some of the stuff we're up to too.)

✨Introspectively Styled✨

Introspectively Styled was launched in September 2021 by founder Rathi Sahgal who wanted to create a minimalist line that would spread self-love, mindfulness, and inspiration with a South Asian twist. The word introspection had a deep meaning for the founder when she started to internally reflect and identify true happiness and self-love in her life and realized this is an important message to share within the South Asian community — a new way to incorporate mindfulness and culture. The line curates casual apparel and accessories for all ages and is currently available to ship in the U.S. and Canada. It incorporates eco-friendly options and is looking forward to giving a portion of the proceeds to charity. Tap here to support and shop.

Brown Girl Magazine was created by and for South Asian people who believe in the power of storytelling as a vehicle for community building and empowerment. Join the movement here.
