For more than 20 years, Sunnie has worked in New York City as a celebrity hair stylist. With clients including Kelly Rowland, Miley Cyrus, Melanie Fiona & more, she would often use hair pins and other hair accessories to create memorable looks that appear on the grammy red carpet, the MTV awards, campaigns and other ads. 

Sanctioned™ is a brand designed exclusively for self-made women, who embrace their rebellious nature of strength and individuality. Despite overcoming challenges, she remains beautifully authentic. To be sanctioned, is to be granted official permission or punishment. Through the Sanctioned brand, we hope to accentuate the beautiful power women exude by living a liberated life no matter the consequence.

Our mission is to adorn the rule breakers of today in luxurious accessories as they charter new paths that lead not only to the soft life, but to safe spaces where authenticity is celebrated. We envision a world where the diversity of women is revered, fashion becomes a force for impact, and self-expression is embraced as the cultural norm. Inspired by natural elements, our pieces reflect the complexity of women and the delicate balance between destiny and legacy.
