Sassy 7 Clothing was born out of a new mom’s quest to find age-appropriate yet fun clothes for her toddler daughter.

Recognizing the power of clothing to reflect one’s personality, she embarked on a journey to establish Sassy 7. Along the way, her sister, Schauna Porter, joined the team as an auntie and partner, sharing the vision of spreading the message of confidence and self-expression. Together, they have built a brand that celebrates individuality and empowers young girls to embrace their unique style and personality, helping them shine brightly in the world.
