Segment 1
Kimberly discusses her background always being interested in fashion and creativity. Early on her life, she was always playing pretend and in school was always looking to do different things in fashion shows and was consistently told no. After school, she worked in various parts of the fashion industry and was constantly learning. During that time she always had the goal of opening her own store, which eventually led her to starting Garmint By Kim.
Today in New Jersey History: John Stewart "Pop" Corkhill was born on April 11, 1858, Pop began his Major League career with the Cincinnati Reds in 1883. He also played with the Brooklyn Bridegrooms, Philadelphia Athletics, and Pittsburgh Pirates before retiring in 1892 after being hit in the head by a pitch from Ed Crane.
Segment 2
Kimberly tells us about all the items she has on her mobile boutique. The colors, the styles, the way they are sourced, are all important things to Kim when she is selecting her pieces for her store. She takes us through a few of her favorites that are hanging on the rack. She also makes her own vintage denim shorts and takes us through that process.
New Jersey Fun Fact: The highest elevation along the entire east coast from maine to florida is in Highlands, NJ.
Segment 3
Since Garmint By Kim is a mobile boutique, there is not actual brick-and-mortar store. Kimberly is always looking with all sorts of local businesses doing pop-ups to get her products into the community. We also discuss the fashion community and how that has influenced Kimberly's career.
