Recently, when I was having a conversation about our market, on an episode of “Listen To Black Women,” a man in the room asked why the market only featured Black women entrepreneurs. I told him because when Black women make money, it affects and empowers the entire community.

With that in mind, myself, Andrea Reed and my sister Vanessa Wells are hosting our fifth pop shop in Harlem this Saturday, November 24th. If you’re in the area, we invite you to RSVP for free, here

You can check out the vendors who will be participating in this year’s market on the following pages.

Very popular with @iespaindulgences customers. It’s one of my favorites as well! Having suffered from #acne all my life, this #lemonandeucalyptus #sugarscrub with #activatedcharcoal is my best friend in the morning. I use it twice a week to remove the dead skin and to draw out the impurities. It leaves my skin refreshed with a radiant glow. #photocredit @tuan.v.vo #skincare #skinregimen #beauty #beautyblog #acnetreatment #removeimpurities #skincareroutine #natural #skincaretips #naturalskincare #naturalproducts #goodforyou #goodforyourskin #radiantglow

COMPOSED. With composure you understand the concept of less equals more and this earring is just that. Simple but such a statement. The bar and ring are hand formed and soldered together by hand. This is appropriate for any occasion, casual or formal and ideal for faces that are round, oval, heart, oblong, diamond and heart shaped. – – – – – #thegildedstone #prettysimpletimeless #handmadejewelry #handmadejewellery #shophandmade #handmade #buyhandmade #shoppingaddict #style #trendsetter
