The Memphettes and Our Mission

Monroe, D'elle & Comanche
The Memphettes social society was created to encourage women of all shapes, sizes, ages, and backgrounds to find their inner bombshell or vintage diva. Based out of Memphis (bet you didn't see that coming) we are a group of ladies in love with vintage, glamour and pinup. Founded by Comanche Rose, Monroe Noire and myself, because we noticed a need for a group that supported each other versus tearing one another down.

It has become an unfortunate fact that instead of banding together in all of the challenges the female gender already face, that women as a whole seem to be driven by a need to compete and compare. I will even go so far as to say women feel the need to occasionally undermine each other, and we can be downright vicious about it.

Unfortunately, age does not always seem to remedy this behavior. Age does not always equal maturity. I hate to admit it but I see this mentality present within many of the communities I am actively involved in. I seem to continually meet other women who feel it is necessary to destroy the self-confidence of others in order to make themselves feel better. This behavior I do not understand.
We strive to love & uplift each another

The Memphettes was created to combat negative behavior and toxicity within friendships. It is our mission to reach out to other women to help them realize their strengths while encouraging each other to find our inner & outer beauty. Above all else it is our mission to teach other women how to love differently, not only themselves but each other. Shaming of any sort is not allowed!

encourage each other to be vibrant
I would love to say this is an easy task or I am 100% faithful to my mission every day. Sadly, I am not. I am human and fall into the petty gossip and negative behavior. But I do have an awesome group of ladies to support me when I am being a bitch and pull me back up to where I believe I should stand. Support is our goal, and we all have to work toward it on a daily basis. The challenge becomes putting aside our individual inner battles and self-doubt so we can be there for one another. It's something we can all benefit from.

find in each unique member
Now if you are interested in knowing a little more about The Memphettes we are a group of like-minded ladies with an interest in vintage home decor & furnishings, clothing & accessories and sewing who meet regularly to brunch, participate in community events and fellowship together in celebration of all things vintage. In addition to hosting Memphette outings, we have either hosted or made guest appearances in and around her community including vintage fashion shows for Southern Junkers Vintage Market, guest judge at the Resurrection Rat Rod & Bike Show Pin Up Pageant, Pints for Pitbulls and Hard Rock Cafe Pinvasion.
