Thank you for considering donating to my campaign!
First off, it may look like I already have together, i.e. many people tell me my brand is "the BOMB", but I haven't had the means to sell suit's yet... and THAT'S WHY I'M HERE!
As a start-up with great potential, minus the proper amount of funding, it has taken me many years to get my design idea sketches made into samples. The samples are what you now see on the models, which have been showcased at fashion shows and photo shoots. Despite the demand, Cherry Bomb is now at a sticking point without money for fabric, manufacturing and inventory. Thus, I can't move forward until I have inventory to sell!
My brand has the foundation paved as far as the first samples/styles, some patterns, photo's, a website and some exposure. This was only achieved with great thanks to family, friends, models, photographers and videographers, etc. who donated money, their time to model, photograph, and video for me! With just over $15,000 of my own money, I was able to get to this point, which of course I'm very proud of nonetheless. I believe in my passion and have come so far and yet so close, so I can't give up now!
This has been such a blessing and quite a journey, hence this small town girl's motto is "Don't Stop Believin'!"
So thanks to your help, Cherry Bomb will be another great success story due to the collaboration of many great people like you!
ABOUT my Brand
Cherry Bomb suits are quality made with luxurious fabrics, and will be made right here in the USA.
We want you to feel great about who you are and how you look, and feel unique as you are in our suits.
A high-end line with an edgy vibe... that's Cherry Bomb.
My swimsuits are more than a string bikini, they cross over to a new category of swimwear… a new ERA of swim fashion... It's SWIM COUTURE.
It's a sweet & spicy mix of Rock-n-Roll, Pin-Up, & Futuristic Fashion!
CB is a reflection of music, people, and art.
An era that’s unfrozen in time… Merging the past, present, & the future.
A little bite of it all... it's the best of everything.
Cherry Bomb is everything, because you are everything!
Be a BOMB girl!
... and We Need YOUR HELP!
Our Ultimate goal is to reach $47,000 in order to get to the production/manufacturing stage.
However, if this stage of funding isn't reached, I will still be able to progress with the money I do raise... So whatever donation/perk you can do, it will save my Brand and help Cherry Bomb continue growing.
Funding will also be used to purchase fabrics, cover cost of materials, revised sampling/grading, tech packs, add a few crucial styles, get a small run of inventory, fulfill perks, get noticed at the Trade Shows, and hopefully participate in MIAMI Swim Week!
With your help I can get my brand seen and heard, start growing the Brand, and make a lot of women look amazing.
We know we can do it with just a little help to get started.

ABOUT ME
Designing is my passion and dream!
I’ve been designing for over 15 years now and decided it's time to stop dreaming and start doing!
So many styles, so little time!
It has taken me many years to get here, but I’m a fighter… and believe anything is possible. I never gave up and despite many odds, I launched my Brand and have opened the Pandora’s box.
I’m a strong woman who overcame many struggles including leaving an abusive relationship, and being homeless. I am proof that women are strong and smart and can achieve anything they set their mind too!
I want my Brand to EMPOWER women to be confident, driven, and sassy despite any struggles or insecurities b/c that makes us stand out, not blend in.
My Brand has been on our local news, in a magazine, a poolside event, and was even part of 2 Fashion Shows... not a bad way to start and now I've been asked to participate in MIAMI Swim Week!
Scary-yes... BUT, I'm not one to sit on the sidelines and wait for things to be perfect, the time is here & now and so I said YES and here I am!
I want to share my love of designing with the world and be that testimony to inspire other's to believe in their own dream, and never give up... b/c eventually persistence and passion pays off.
Once my Brand is going strong, we will be involved in helping women overcome & awareness of Domestic Violence. We want to give back too and can't wait to do great things together!
My Brand is fun, fearless, and fashion-forward, just like YOU!!!
