Born and raised in the culturally rich city of Memphis, TN, Kimberly Arthell Brown knew her gift of creativity from God would lead her into a space and place where she could flourish as the woman she was birthed to be. Kim, described by many as a free spirit, can be noted by her personal urban flair with a vintage twist. Always taught by her mother to never follow the crowd, at an early age she developed an affinity for expressing her individuality through fashion and style.
