    The thing I love and found the most interesting is the fact Alisha and Ashley did their research, they showed the process of making the brand instead of other influencers who throw something new without saying and showing how passionate they are for making a brand or creating something. This took two people but a whole lot of work and that is what captures me the most.

    Girl, I love you, but these clothes are wayyyyy too expensive. 😢. The clothes are advertised as “affordable”, but I don’t think 116 dollars for a zip up hoodie or 95 dollars for a crop top is in anyone’s price range. Please know that this is in no way intended to be hateful. Just constructive criticism. I’m proud of you ❤️

    I can’t say thank you enough to you being size inclusive from the beginning with PA! So often I feel excluded when a new influencer brand comes out because they only go up to a size large 🙄 I couldn’t stop smiling when you had the fitting with your plus size model and taking her feedback on how things should fit someone larger. Can’t wait to buy the pieces and review them!!! 💛💛💛

    As a beautiful plus size woman, I was sooo happy when you brought your gorgeous friend in to get her opinion on how the plus size should look and sit on the body. So many times creators try their best to make plus size clothing but because they aren’t plus size themselves; it’s not always the best fit. I really enjoyed how you ladies had that moment and showcased it.❤️

  • @mikkicurtis5535

    I love that even though this is a line of very basic pieces, the way you guys made sure the fit was different for each body type is what makes me cry happy tears! A lot of the time clothes like this are one fit even if there are different sizes, and I feel so unseen and unworthy to feel as good in my clothes as smaller women do. Thank you for breaking this barrier that is still so prominent in the fashion world. I can't wait for the release day!

    I have been watching Alisha since 2013 and I literally grew up watching her schools hacks and hauls. Seeing this growth, not only in her ability to open A WHOLE BRAND but also seeing her mentality change and the confidence she’s gained in herself is so beautiful to me, I am so proud of where she’s going and I aspire to be like her truly. Once this drops YOU BEST BELIEVE EVERYTHING IS GONNA SELL OUT! Love you so much Alisha and keep thriving as the badass queen u are 💖

    Oh my god. I cannot even contemplate how I feel about this. You have spoken up for bigger girls like no other brand or even a person I know. Thank you for speaking for us bigger girls, thank you for speaking for all of the girls that feel insecure and isolated, not knowing how to express themselves in a confident/sexy way as you are saying it. I really hope that this does not flop because everyone who has worked on this, absolutely deserves the world. You deserve this Alisha. 🖤🖤🖤

But even after 13 years she is still there making vlogs , videos, Merch and a whole ass brand now. Love you Alisha! Was 13 when I started watching you. I’m now 17❤️
