Women Who Own It

“Women who OWN IT” is designed to celebrate women who OWN what they do and inspire others through their drive, passion, human connection, stellar talent and powerhouse grace to get done whatever it is they love!

What do you OWN totally? What passion, hobby, career, talent or work in the world makes you feel whole?

What inspires us is unique. Each of  the women we featured is incredible in their own way – each is doing what they love and they OWN IT!  They have overcome obstacles or gone beyond and Teresa would like to pay tribute to them, creating a special day to transform them for a few hours. Dressed in the Tribute Trouser collection they try on all the various pant designs, have their make up done by our clean cosmetic partners Elate Cosmetics, time to dance in their favourite pants for a photo shoot and wrap up the day telling their own story on how fashion impacted their self-confidence. Watch for their motivating stories every month!
