Sooo, I’m The Boss

Hey there! I’m Jennifer, the proud owner & designer behind the brand. When I'm not doing all things Jamison & Bexley, you can catch me negotiating snacks like it's a high-stakes business deal, chauffeuring my minivan like it’s the Indy 500, being a hot mess in Facebook mom groups, or savoring a nice old fashioned because self-care comes in many forms.

I was born and raised in the good ol' U.S. of A., but my roots trace back to Africa, thanks to my immigrant parents. Yep, first-generation American here, which basically means I grew up navigating two cultures, trying to explain why my mom thought Vicks VapoRub cured everything, and figuring out how to blend tradition with my own dreams. Spoiler alert: it worked.

Ever since I was a little girl, I had this big dream of becoming a fashion designer. You know, sketching outfits, bossing imaginary assistants around, the usual. I even got fancy with it—went to college and snagged a degree in Fashion & Retail Management. After that, I packed up my dreams (and my slightly dramatic collection of shoes) and moved from Pennsylvania to Ohio because Columbus is the third-largest fashion city in the U.S. Who knew, right?

I dove into the fashion scene, participated in runway shows, and designed ready-to-wear women’s clothing that I upcycled from thrift stores. Called my company Phlipped Fashions. It was all fun and exhilarating until… I had kids. And suddenly, my dreams did what most dreams do when you become a parent—they shifted, but not in a sad way. More like, “Oh hey, let’s pivot” kind of way.

Seven years ago I found myself pregnant, sitting at my corporate office chair and looking at boy baby clothes and frustrated because:

Everything was aggressively pink or blue.
Why did a onesie have to have ruffles or dinosaurs or tractors?
And seriously, could we get some gender-neutral options that are actually cute and can ACTUALLY work for boys and girls?!

So, like any slightly sleep-deprived mom with a Pinterest board full of ideas, I decided to create my own brand—Jamison & Bexley, named after my two favorite (and occasionally feral) humans, Bexley and Jamison. I wanted clothes that were adorable, durable, gender-neutral, and could survive both spaghetti nights and spontaneous mud puddle adventures.

Every item in my shop? Curated, designed, and obsessively handpicked by yours truly. I even got back into designing, starting with T-shirts. My personal faves?

“Mixed with Love”: Inspired by my kids, who come from beautifully different racial backgrounds. This tee is for every kid who doesn’t fit into a neat little box (because, newsflash, none of us do). It’s a love letter in cotton form, reminding mixed-race kids that they are perfect, whole, and unapologetically loved.
“Apparently I’m Dramatic”: Because, well... if the onesie fits. Let’s be honest, we’re all a little dramatic sometimes, whether it’s a toddler losing their mind over the wrong color cup or me realizing I left my coffee in the microwave… again.

I’m beyond excited to offer gender-neutral pieces that are so durable, they can be passed down from one kid to the next, regardless of gender, vibe, or snack preference.
