Last Thursday, I joined fellow design lovers in celebrating the launch of AphroChic's new book, Remix. Perhaps my favorite aspect of the Remix story is that it's truly a family affair. Not only is the book co-authored by real-life, married couple Jeanine Hayes and Bryan Mason, but Jeanine’s sister, Angela, helped style the shoots while brother-in-law Leon captured the Remix experience via video (See his work here). So talented and about the most genuine people you could ever meet! Yep. I’m an unapologetic fan of the AphroChic clan. Pick up their new book and you’ll be smitten too.
