Be Inspired By Marie Worthie | Natural Hair Tees

Naturallie Beautiful. Naturallie Worthie
For He Worth is Far Beyond Rubies 
I Am Undeniable Worthie! Yes, You are too! -Marie Worthie!

Marie Worthie is every black woman, from child to matriarch! Proverbs 31:10 says For her worth is far beyond rubies. Ladies, some rubies are priceless and my darlings, so are we! Too often we forget our worth. Even more often, we allow others to define it for us. The BIBLE has already solidified our "WORTH"! Not only are we naturally beautiful, we are naturally WORTHIE!

1. What inspired you to create Natural Hair T-Shirts?
I have a passion for fashion and love clothes that make a statement about who I am and what I stand for. Someone asked me if thought "natural hair" was just a fad or trend. My answer to that is absolutely NOT! I believe for me and a lot of women who made the choice to "go natural" are also committed to "staying natural". Being natural is actually a way of life or has become a way of life for African American women. Society made us feel that straight hair was beautiful and curly, coily hair was "nappy". When in reality it is the versatility of our hair in its natural state that makes us stand out. People who know me know I love my hair and love to switch it up. You absolutely never know what I'm going to do next. Clothes that make a statement, tend to inspire the audience it's speaking to. I want to inspire naturals, not only are we beautiful, we are "Worthie".


2. When did you realize you wanted to become a fashion designer and how long have you worked as a designer?
In high school, I noticed how people would compliment my outfit, hair, or both.  My high school nurse always said I should go to cosmetology school because she could not believe I did my own hair. I was raised in poverty by a mom who was determined to do better and encouraged us to do the same. Her motto: Get your education! I've only had the pleasure of designing myself and family members! If that counts, at least 15 years or so. I had to make do with very little. The creativity in me actually comes from a "lack there of", of money to attend a salon regularly and get new clothes on a constant basis. My mom finished her bachelors degree with 5 children and watching her was nothing short of amazing.

3. How do you define your T-shirts?
 Worthie! Her name is MarieWorthie. Not only are we naturallie beautiful, we are naturallie worthie. I've got good hair, no lye is a statement. We are no longer confined to the beliefs of society, but we are embracing who we are, naturallie! Our culture and community are making strides in accepting our "natural" beauty. We still have a ways to go, but we are definitely making progress.



4. What are some of your fashion goals?
My fashion goals are to empower women to know ,own and wear their worth. Women are the prize! Once we know and own who we are, we are unstoppable! I remind myself daily that I am a child of the MOST HIGH GOD and I AM WORTHIE! This shirt is simply the beginning of a movement to enlighten some and remind other women just who they are. Life has a way of making you feel the exact opposite sometimes. We as women wear many hats that has the potential to become so overwhelming. We can't get stuck in rut from the pressures of day to day life. Notice I said stuck. If no one encourages us, we must learn to encourage ourselves, compliment ourselves and most importantly, LOVE ourselves and KNOW our worth! Tees, clothes, accessories and many more will come from MarieWorthie!
