We had the good fortune of connecting with Brandi Woods and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Brandi, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
There weren’t any apparel lines out there that spoke the true NOLA language and showcased the essence of the city. I figured, since it wasn’t out there it was up to me to create it.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What sets me apart is my apparel speaks the language that New Orleanians and true lovers of the city will understand. I grew up in the golden era of bounce so a lot of my designs are sure to bring back memories of a simpler time for a lot of people.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I’m an extreme homebody so we’d definitely be hanging out at the house watching movies, pigging out on junk food and relaxing. Boring to some, but that’s my idea of a good time.
