I am Jann Marie, creator and designer of Hoodie Love. A dellightful Womans (soon to be Men and Kids) hoodie line. I got my start hemming pants, then making skirts, that lead to making wedding dresses which I still love to do when i have time. Then i had this amazing idea to make the perfect hoodie...and make sure every body had the opportunity to have one as well. So right now my focus is on HOODIE LOVE!
I once had this hoodie from a thrift store that i altered to fit just right. It was already broken in and so comfortable. I wore it all the time! I figured why not have something that is so comfortable you never want to take it off while being something you feel confident going out in too. So i did just that! Hoodie love was born because I felt like hoodies are something everyone wants to wear but they usually look like something that came from a your high school homecoming game or summer camp? They are boxy hand-me-downs made for a rainy day on the couch. Not any more guys, wearing Hoodie Love feels like you are in your PJs but looks like a million bucks. you can dress it up, wear it out, layer it, hit the slopes, go rock climbing and yes, wear it with your leggings on your comfy days...and still look so great.
I am inspired by the great out doors, colors and travel. I think travel is inspiring for most people because it brings you to new places, sparking new thoughts and ideas. Travel can be so refreshing. Just a break from the daily routine is oh so healthy. I love to cut, sew, paint, creat, swim, bike, run and oh course, travel!
Thank you to my beautiful friend and cousin and photographer Kate Osborne for the very last min and very spontaneous photo shoot (abouve photos) in her kitchen. She wore the first wedding dress i ever made, she was the first to purchase a hoodie on my Indiegogo campaign. She is my number one go to for style and inspiration and is alwasy down for a nature walk. A beautiful person inside and out. Thanks Kate.
