"When this idea came to me at the age of 15, I knew 828 would be the name! The book of Romans has gotten me through every trial in my life and this particular verse has sculpted me into the person I am today. After a tragic house fire in 2021 where we lost everything, we realized that life is truly so short, and what better time than the present to pursue what you are passionate about.

My mom and I love all aspects of designing — from clothing to interior design! We can’t wait to share what we feel represents our personality and style to help you feel your best! Our goal is to appeal to all different age groups with timeless style. While Shop 8 Two 8 is a mother-daughter venture, we'd be remiss to not mention the guys behind the business, too. Mom and I are so grateful for the support of my dad and brothers. You know, the ones that manage the heavy lifting and occasional IT Tech Support.

Of course, playing in beautiful clothes everyday is wonderful— But our faith is what we want to shine the brightest at the end of the day! Romans 8:28 holds such a powerful message that we hope you can apply to your life on an everyday basis!

From the bottom of our hearts we appreciate your support of our new new business. We may be small, but we won't lack in quality, value, or service!"
