Brahmin x Coco Michele: Celebrating Women’s History Month with the Return of The Affirmation Collection
The Affirmation Collection returns with powerful designs that honor your strength, individuality, and self-expression.
The wait is over—Brahmin and Coco Michele are back with another stunning collaboration, just in time for Women’s History Month! The highly anticipated Affirmation Collection celebrates individuality, strength, and self-love, blending Brahmin’s signature elegance with the empowering artwork of Andrea Ballo, the visionary behind Coco Michele.
After the sellout success of their 2024 collection, Brahmin and Coco Michele have joined forces once again to create a limited-edition collection that’s bold, beautiful, and deeply meaningful.
This year’s limited-edition collection is designed to inspire and empower, featuring two breathtaking prints—Ivory Chosen and Lilac Worthy—each crafted to remind you of your unique power and individuality. These exclusive designs adorn Brahmin’s iconic Small Caroline handbag, the chic Small Leia crossbody, and matching wallets and journals, making each piece a celebration of strength and self-expression.
Ivory Chosen is a timeless blend of elegance and resilience, showcasing soft hues and intricate florals paired with affirmations that speak to inner confidence.
Lilac Worthy radiates bold femininity with its lush purple tones and empowering mantras woven throughout. 
With their vibrant florals and meaningful details, this collection is more than just accessories—it’s a daily reminder of your worth and strength. Don’t miss out—these exclusive pieces are available in limited quantities!
Andrea Ballo, founder of Coco Michele, shares her inspiration behind the designs:
“Chosen and Worthy are two mantras that celebrate the beauty and accomplishments of women. As women-led businesses with shared values, it was a natural opportunity to develop the Affirmation Collection and instill self-expression and self-love.”
The Collection: Bold, Beautiful, and Purposeful
Each piece in the Affirmation Collection was thoughtfully designed to empower and inspire. Whether you’re carrying a statement handbag or jotting down your goals in a journal, these pieces spark joy and celebrate creativity.
“Our ambition is to inspire confidence with bold colors, unique details, and thoughtful designs,” says Susan Thacker, CEO of Brahmin. “Partnering with Coco Michele, whose brand shares this ethos, is a wonderful opportunity to create something meaningful. Her artwork tells a powerful story that truly resonates—and sells fast!”
Giving Back with Purpose
Brahmin’s dedication to community is at the heart of this collaboration. To honor Women’s History Month, 10-percent of proceeds from this collection will be donated to the National Council of Negro Women (NCNW)—an organization devoted to empowering women of African descent, their families, and communities. This partnership reinforces Brahmin’s commitment to making a positive impact while celebrating resilience and strength.
