Hi, I’m Amanda! A mother of 3 boys and a nurse from Brooklyn, NY. My passion is fashion, styling, and aesthetics.
Growing up in Brooklyn, NY. I was heavily inspired by fashion and hip hop music. As a young girl I always knew I wanted to be apart of the fashion industry whether it was modeling (it didn’t matter if it was NYFW or one of the girls from the music videos), styling or a fashion buyer.
Being 17 and pregnant all those dreams was out the window. I settled for what I thought at the time was a more stable career in Nursing. After 15 years in nursing, balancing motherhood and a couple of bad relationships( yes I said a couple). I was left feeling anxious, depressed, burned out and unfulfilled.
I did the soul work to identify my next step and took it. In 2022 I started my blog Fashionmixtapes. I started this blog as a journey to heal from being broke and broken.
I want Inspire my readers that you don’t have to look like what you have been/going through. By providing my readers with fashion inspiration, fashion finds, style, lifestyle and motherhood tips.
