W(O)W: Princess Booker x Nine Mile Clothing
Princess Booker is a entrepreneur who’s goal is to live out her passions every day. She finds her niche within music and fashion. Her life motto is: “If it makes you happy, do it. . . No time for shoulda, woulda, coulda.”
She is the CEO and creator of Nine Mile Clothing, which is inspired by Nine Mile, Jamaica. The brand was created with the intention of shedding more light on the place she loves and calls home while sharing this love with the world.
The apparel from Nine Mile Clothing celebrates culture, One Love, and empowerment that derives from Jamaican heritage. The pillars of Nine Mile Clothing are: one love, inspire, community, unity, empowerment and sustainability.
Growing up, Princess recalls every experience helping her become who she is today. Although she can’t define one critical moment, over time and through reflection she has discovered that all of her childhood experiences are the reason she is who she is now.
Princess summarizes her life with one word, madness. This madness is from the hustle of doing everything at once to make the dream reality. She can’t live without her laptop, internet, traveling and cheese (retweet on all of this!). Her grandmother, father and mother are some of the people she is most inspired by.
Her #1 tip of advice to her younger self would be, “embrace who you are.” She believes community is based in support and understanding and that it should be a group of people who speak out of love always, even when correcting something.
Just start! Princess lives life by going for it and planning it all out along the way. Through experience she has learned it is important to let the idea be you and to not be discouraged by others.
To date, starting Nine Mile Clothing and writing her own children’s book has been amongst the top of her accomplishments. She looks forward to continually creating a brand that can be recognized globally and recently introduced a new line for Nine Mile Clothing, Nine Mile Babies. She’s got the whole fam covered!
