About Us

I love to create! I love to paint! I absolutely love a good play on words! Most of all, I believe stilettos should be worn with T-shirts & bikinis!

 I’m fortunate to be living my own personal dream thanks to my unbelievably supportive parents who taught me that success is earned & not granted. Watching my father own his own business as a child was literally the coolest thing in the world! I keep his briefcase with me every day! Having my mother always by my side made me strong & confident. (Bless her heart for the places I’ve dragged her to in order to always find the most unique components). My husband will tell you I’m the best of both of them ;) his support of my travels, long hours, & pure exhaustion enables me to keep creating! Don’t worry, after all this he still gets home-cooked meals every  night to keep him strong to run his own business.

Travel is my passion and is reflected in all my collections. You will regularly find me under the Eiffel Tower or seaside in Montenegro sketching out my newest ideas. 

My parents taught me anything is possible with hard work & dedication. They supported my decision to move to Manhattan to create my brands. 15 years of living La Vida Loca in New York City & summers in the Hamptons enabled me to work alongside the best of the best in my industry! My company is now 24 years strong.

I truly love Every Single piece I make for y’all. 

You will hear me say again & again, & again, & again “Omg, This is my FAVORITE piece ever”!!! It’s true, EACH & EVERY time.

 I create from the heart with the absolute best intentions. Art is protected by our first amendment and protected by the fair use act. Any & all art is an expression of creativity and in absolutely NO way, shape, or form associated with any brands, copyrights, logo infringements, nor trademarks of any kind. Puns, parodies, innuendos & such are a fun heartfelt expression of who I am. 

Secretly inside my head I believe I’m the world’s second chance at Andy Warhol. Shhh, don’t tell anyone I said that ;)

Special shout out to the true pioneer, Sheckys! Their innovative platform offered original designers and small businesses a platform to sell our wares across the entire country! What a great fu$&’ing time we had. Forever grateful for your vision of supporting local before it was even a thing!

My business is family-run. Mom, dad, & sis are always around making sure we keep on top of everything internally. THANK YOU!

You will all get to know Michele, she’s my right hand. My left hand, and the sanity that keeps it all going. Be nice to her, she’s head of customer relations and will always do her best to help you in any way.

Yes, I love to talk/write way too much… Follow me on Instagram for all the fun @edaandbetty

XOXO,

Niki

P.S. Eda & Betty were my grandmothers! They were true fashionistas before the word even existed. My instagram remains @edaandbetty as it was the original brand I created. 

 *Fun fact, my mom wore hot pants & go-go boots to my baby shower… apples don’t fall far from their trees.*

K, byeeee
