Style Influencer: Candi Anderson
The Woman Behind the Success of Stitch and Feather.
One of the best things about the behind the scenes of OCSR is getting the opportunity to meet and work with Orange County’s most influential women, including the very talented Candi Anderson. 2014 was the first time I walked into Stitch and Feather, I immediately fell in love with everything about the store. Candi’s ability to give her shoppers a beautiful boutique atmosphere with affordable prices is nothing less than genius. This might have to do with Candi’s other business, The Brandory. The Brandory is a full service promotional marketing and design agency.
Candi’s talents are undeniable, but the secret to Candi’s success is her personality. Candi is the sweetest and kindest person you’ll ever meet. She always has a smile on her face, while making everyone around her feel special and welcome.
