Sovereignty.
my 24th edict: a photo voice of my evolution: autonomy, adornment. devotion. elegance and sensuality. Paying homage to the woman l’ve always been-the one who is curious, daring, and a rarity-by documenting her now with a new level of taste.
viewing my wardrobe as habitat and this very camera as my record keeper. my law of my land: extreme softness and absolute power. embracing a new, yet inherent, life built on the agency that wasn’t gifted to the women in my lineage. they knew survival, I know the grace of being.
a decree of my woman-ness: I am the occasion.
Happy birthday to me.

DA ICON DIARIES: finally. borough beauty. first vlog out & innnn my bio! 🎞️
Brooklyn my first home. Harlem i adore you. Central Park. Manhattan.
The Bronx. Soho! LES! Rockaway. SAA! I came. I went. I saw. I left (to atlanta) - but I always return. my nyc homecoming.
we’re bringing you cinema. uncut footage: gems from behind the curtain. what do y’all wanna see from meh eh?!
Introducing, reintroducing, and reclaiming: Aura Collectve turned VIRA ELÉA. Style done well is a system: not as an outfit, but as a language. What it says before you speak. Whether it actually belongs to you.
That’s the premise behind VIRA ELÉA. We are a private curation and image house: focused on styling systems, accessory-led image building, curated pairings, and custom looks. The work is MODULAR by design: wardrobes built to move together, not around a single piece that carries everything.
What interests me is the longer arc: how presence is shaped, how a visual identity becomes something lived rather than put on. Style as infrastructure, not performance.
Going forward, I’ll be working with select clients through VIRA ELÉA across wardrobe curation, styling, design goods, and creative consulting. 🥂

Ms. Icon. The Edit Uncut. 💐 — Spent the past few months changing lanes and working, silently. From working in high fashion to now working with Harvard founders/Startups & co-directing creative strategy for @nnexus.co , I am endlessly grateful for Gods grace & opportunity.
Let me reintroduce myself: I’m Fae, a creative designer, strategist, and consultant. Currently reverse engineering my career: experience and work first, title second. Q1 of 2026 was all about planning, showing up, and executing big ideas. I’ve had the pleasure to launch new programming with my NNEXUS team, securing partnership with Eaton hotel DC and launching our lab program! I’ve secured my first ever client: a Harvard alum and Times best invention founder, working on AI footwear and taking my first steps into entrepreneurial ecosystems. This is my reminder and your reminder too: your gifts will make room for you.
2026 is a year of clientele and taking risk. Get to know me via my website. This is the edit uncut.

THE CONVICTED 8: Eight truths I stopped negotiating with at 24. An act of leading with intentionality & marking my birth anniversary with reflection. Pull up a seat Queens. 👑
8 symbolizes new beginnings, regeneration, and new order. power. success and prosperity.
CONVICTED TRUTHS:
1. Creativity & Faith anchor Everything: Your walk with God is non-negotiable and so is the art of creating. It’s foundational not optional.
2. Alignment = Attraction: Realize the role you play in the fruition of your life & reality.
3. Your 20’s belong to you: Create standards & an unshakable foundation for your future life.
4. Careers are earned not given: Commit yourself to the journey of building a career; not an outcome. Know your why?
5. Subtle feminine power is supreme; Be self-assured + Embody the CEO in silk mindset and framework
6. Date Intentionally + UP: Socially, Financially, Intellectually. Surround yourself with people with value systems that align with yours. Change your dating life by reclaiming your agency.
7. Eloquence is Currency: prioritize etiquette, be well-mannered & pour into your physical presentation.
8. Discipline is the Glow-up so Grow-up: No excuses. Laziness is not acceptable. Consistency is a one way street to elevating your life. Get serious.
