Sara Jane Abbott
It may surprise you to hear that Sara Jane, known today for her unique style and signature use of accessories, was once a tomboy who found fashion as a form of self-expression. In her younger years, her family’s unconventional hippie lifestyle led to frequent moves, meaning she was always the new girl, always a bit of an outsider, and kids at school were not always so welcoming. She loved to page through magazines and coveted the looks and pieces she saw on the confident people on the pages. So began a lifetime love affair with thrifting -- the perfect way to develop her own sense of style and experiment with trends and pairings.
She followed her passion and studied fashion design in both New York and London, graduating to work in the corporate world, where she designed apparel and accessories for 17 years. All the while, the entrepreneur inside her knew that one day she would have her own business.
SJ knows the power of styling of its many possibilities. She loves to use fashion to help people the same way it helped her – by enhancing one’s sense of self, sense of play and adventure, and by being a vehicle through which one can embody their most confident and authentic self.
