Aurora James is the Creative Director for Brother Vellies, an accessories brand focused on sustainably-made shoes and handbags. Aurora founded Brother Vellies in 2013 with the goal of introducing a western audience to traditional African footwear while creating artisanal jobs across the continent. Today, Aurora joins Girlboss and Sephora to share her #LIPSTORIES. She tells us what a Namibia trip gone wrong taught her about keeping things in perspective, why sometimes you just need to drive into the desert with your girlfriends, and the treat she buys herself every single Sunday.
