About Borris Powell
 
Luxury in woman's fashion has a new name-Borris Powell.  Born in Alabama, the passionate designer developed his dreams of a career in woman's fashion early on in life.  Throughout his childhood, while observing his mother preparing for a night out on the town or even a Sunday visit to church, he trained his young eyes on color and silhouette. 
 
Powell followed his dreams and moved to Chicago to start his design career in 1997.  His trademark silhouettes have comforting familiarity of his early authentic memories mixed with a chick nod to high-end city life.
 
Romantic, elegant and with a seductive sensibility, Powell's designs are perfect for any venue.  His sole focus is on his clients.  "I try to keep things simple while constantly staying true to my work, myself, and the women I design for.

About Winter Blue

Samantha Raphael founded "Winter Blues" with the intention of creating a pair of trend setting, great fitting, and comfortable jeans with beautiful washes and details along with stylish and comfortable tops.
Winter Blues are designer jeans available with or with out a luxury fleece lining that is incredibly soft against your skin. The fleece is not bulky at all plus it's wind resistant, breathable, and wicks away sweat, all the while keeping you incredibly warm during the colder months.
Samantha’s experience as a yoga teacher helped her create jeans that move with you.  The combination of soft, stretchy denim with or with out a four-way stretch fleece provides the flexibility you need to do whatever you want.
No more sacrificing Fashion for Function. Winter Blues...So Hot They're Cool!
