Author & Artist Jenna Shotmeyer On How She Used Art To Overcome Personal Tragedy

Laura MacRae, Founder of MacRae & Co.

Today on Under The Via we get to listen in on a fun conversation with Toi and Laura MacRae, Founder of MacRae & Co. MacRae & Co was launched in 2022. After a successful launch with a repurposed button brand, Laura MacRae wanted to launch her own curated collections from handpicked manufactures from across the globe.  From her first Prada bag and Tory Burch Revas, fashion has always been front and center in her world. Accessories finish the outfit. A simple Oxford white shirt can immediately be elevated by a pair of gorgeous earrings and TB flats or Palm Beach Sandals. MacRae is a family name - for multiple generations, and their hope is that their pieces will outlast the trends and carry you through the generations.  At MacRae & Co, they love classic pieces. Some styles never die. But, they also like a little bit of a modern twist. So their pieces always have a classic look with a modern edge without being too trendy that they only last you a season. They want you to feel seen and bold in their pieces. Their hope is you love them as much as they do. https://macraeandco.com/ [https://macraeandco.com/] www.palmbeachsandals.com
