Who We Are / The Goal Behind Ruth Vintage
My name is Taylor, currently a student and barista located in Houston, Texas I have a passion for creativity, love, and anything vintage. Being a girl within today's culture, there is a constant pressure to look and dress a certain way; the pressure to give in to the trends of media, magazines, and celebrities. My goal is to open an online, vintage shop to inspire women to stand up against the modern day image of beauty. Not only do I want women to be encouraged, but I want them to realize their value is not simply in their clothes but in their character.
I desire Ruth Vintage to be a store that promotes the value of a women's character, power, and knowledge, and not simply focus on sexuality and physicality to define her. Counter-active to today's culture, I want to ladies to be empowered by who they are and not what the media tells them they are.
The help of contributors is incredibly important. Not only will your help provide the funds for registering Ruth Vintage, business costs, and finding quality vintage clothing for ladies, it will also spread the word of our women's value and their incredible beauty. Your contributions will be the foundation of this business, and the beginning of a statement against our modern-day trends.
What We Need
With the goal of $850 in mind, your generous contributions and funding will go to:
- Buying quality, vintage clothing and accessories for women
- Registering Ruth Vintage as a Texas business
- Buying any inventory needed
- Marketing and advertising (website, business cards, etc.)
- Getting a foothold in the small business world to begin making an impact on ladies
How Are You Impacting?
By making this dream come true, you are pushing another step towards encouraging women in their value, their beauty, and creating a mindset that encourages women to see past media's pressure on the idea that 'sex sells.' Not only are you impacting women, but you are also impacting teens and young ladies by reminding them of their inner beauty, while providing them with a way to dress in a way that is in style and flattering.
I believe this is an incredible way to just love ladies! Not only will they be able to fit in with current trends in fashion, but they will receive a message that goes far beyond 'physical' and encourages their character and idea of self-worth.
