The Making of Ivory & Beau: episode 2

And Iโ€™m baacccccck this time talking all about some of the biggest hurdles that Ivory & Beau has had to overcome over the past 13 yearsโ€ฆ.. !

Plus, in the YouTube video catch some fun features straight out of the I&B history vault!!!

  1. The Ivory & Beau Spring 2014 Lookbook || this was our first big big big photoshoot that we did with Izzy Hudgins after receiving our inventory! We featured several of our dresses as well as accessories. It was such a fun edgy shoot with soft touches and now that I think of itโ€ฆ why in the world have we not done another one each year when we our new styles arrive!?!? Well, I guess actually I can answer thatโ€ฆ weโ€™ve been way too busy, at least latelyโ€ฆ Maybe someday again. Either way, check out this full lookbook below!

2. Next up, I featured a few of the very fun and very cringe-worthy looking back on now Tik-Tok videos we made during Covid!! ๐Ÿ˜‚ ANDโ€ฆ Iโ€™m pretty sure I started Tik-Tok right before Covid actuallyโ€ฆ What a crazy time that was. I canโ€™t even believe itโ€™s been 5 years since all that happened. In honesty, it somehow actually feels longer ago to me than 5 years?! Maybe because of how much has changed in the last 5 yearsโ€ฆ It just doesnโ€™t even seem possible that this much could happen in the span of 5 years. If you had told me then that in 5 years Ivory & Beau would be where it is now I would not even come close to believing you! I can remember crying hysterically so stressed at how to afford employeeโ€™s pay when there were all these cancellations and business slowing down. It was a very stressful time in retrospect. But wow, God is good and God sure did continue to provide for Ivory & Beau in a big way. Either way, if you feel like watching some ridiculous Tik-Tok videosโ€ฆ weโ€™ve got lots! **Shoutout to Rachel who has taken over & is rocking the current videos!!!

Next up, talking all about the new location!!!! And wow, what a journey (and headache) that has beenโ€ฆ. HA. Iโ€™m guessing if youโ€™ve ever dealt with a renovation you will understand and relate to thatโ€ฆ Ta ta for now!

xoxo, Nicole
