History

Established in 2010.

2010 was quite a memorable year for Kendra Leonard. Having just lost her husband to leukemia in October of 2009 and not given a final promotion with Banana Republic after a steadfast 11 years of working there, she decided that it was time for a change. Her goal was to write a business plan by the end of March so she could dedicate her energies towards raising money for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society as she was nominated for the 2010 Woman of the Year. After ten tiring weeks and $ 30,000 later, Kendra won the campaign. It was with this new sense of confidence and humility that Kendra knew that she was on the right path. In the middle of July, she purchased her new home in Brier Creek so that she could live, work, and play. Two days later she put in her notice. Combining her love for travel and clothing, she went to Milan in September. There she was inspired to continue living the dream. By the beginning of November, the art of style had arrived.
