Emotional eating. These two words and fifteen letters seem so small, yet their impact is so large.
Read MoreI remember one of my first Soul Cycle classes during my senior year of college at USC. It was the week before final exams, and I was doing everything possible to procrastinate. (sorry mom and dad!) As I clipped in my bike in the dark, candlelit room, I began to think to myself. Who am I and what am I doing here?
Read MoreVulnerability. We all feel it, yet we are too afraid to talk about it. The feeling of shame, rejection, not being able to get our words back, boundaries of safety, trust, pain and the list goes on. But what actually happens when you are vulnerable and open up?
Read MoreOften times, we are afraid to let go of fear. We want to stay in control of our anxieties, as we think of the worst. The little voices in our heads who tell us that we are not capable or will not succeed often get the best of us, and push us to master controlling the tiniest details we had not previously considered.

CHROMA+BASIX has officially launched, featuring luxury fabrics and a fresh approach to the contemporary clothing scene. The sophisticated collection of individually handcrafted, artistic washes are designed and manufactured in the heart of Los Angeles. Our mission - to inspire and empower women, one soul, one body and one city at a time.
CHROMA+BASIX founder and creative director explains, “I remember shopping after I graduated college from USC, and couldn’t find a contemporary legging line that celebrated the female body. The leggings were sheer and didn’t hold you in well enough; As women, we naturally have insecurities and vulnerabilities that no one talks about. I wanted to create a different shopping experience.”
However, fashion runs in her blood, as she grew up in her father’s premiere Los Angeles dye house, which is home to many name brands. “CHROMA+BASIX is built on self-love and female empowerment. I want women to know that they are beautiful and perfect in every single way. We are all on our own journeys and are only competing with the person we were yesterday. It’s difficult with the media, bloggers and paparazzi that criticize and tear women down constantly. I strongly believe that if we have unity and work together we can do anything. We’re here to create a movement.”
When asked about the possibility of taking the manufacturing process overseas, she says, “absolutely not. We are proud to be a local company and want it to stay that way. All components of our leggings from the cutting, sewing, dye process and screen-printing to our care labels, bags and hang-tags are made in Los Angeles. We want to support the local economy.”
