On this episode of How'd She Do That? Emily welcomes Angela O'Brien, founder of Cleobella, onto the show!

Angela was raised in Huntington Beach in Southern California, and so was Cleobella, but the inspiration and reach of the brand is worldwide. Angela's travels with her husband to southeast Asia and around the world inspired the fashion and beauty behind Cleobella's dresses and other products. All of their designs are ethically and sustainably handmade and preserve the traditional heritage techniques of their artisans, who are from Indonesia, India, and beyond.

Angela began her career in modeling as a child, traveling across the world, and then studying marketing and communication at Cal State Dominguez Hills and always dreamt of being an entrepreneur. Since realizing that dream, Cleobella has grown to include handmade clothing collections, dresses, shoes, and purses, all made in small quantities and sold in more than 300 stores!

Cleobella's new bridal collection is now live and available to shop HERE! This conversation reminds us all to focus on the details, take life one step at a time, and be grateful for challenges! We know you'll enjoy Emily's conversation with Angela!
