We had the good fortune of connecting with Dennisha Bellinger and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Dennisha, every day, we about how much execution matters, but we think ideas matter as well. How did you come up with the idea for your business?
My love for fashion started at a very young age. For as long as I can remember, I was always into reading fashion magazines/blogs and watching fashion tv shows. I even had a sketch book and would constantly draw out different outfit ideas. I loved everything about the fashion industry and still do. Along with my passion for fashion, I also dealt with body-shaming and saw it among several women around me. On social media, at school, it was everywhere. As a victim of body-shaming, I wanted to create a brand that promotes self-love, self-confidence, and allows women to express themselves through fashion. Pure Flawless Boutique was designed for confident women who embrace their style and inner beauty without fear of judgment. They wear what they want, when they want, with confidence.

What should our readers know about your business?
I got to where I am today by being consistent, investing in myself, and not giving up when things get tough. I’m not gonna lie, running a business is hard work. I’ve had plenty of long nights, early mornings, and moments of being super stressed out. I learned real quick that success doesn’t happen overnight. Looking back at where I started, I must say I’ve come a long way. Over the years, I’ve invested in business coaches and courses that have not only helped my business grow but helped me grow as an entrepreneur. I’m so excited to see what 2022 has in store for me.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If my best friends were in town, we would definitely have to start the day off with brunch and mimosas. Then, we would hit up the mall to treat ourselves to something nice. After that, we would have some fun at the bowling alley or go mini golfing. And then finally end the night getting all cute and dolled up for dinner at a nice, fancy restaurant.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
First of all, I want to give a shout out to God because without him I’m nothing. I also want to shout out my fiancé for always being a listening ear and pushing me to get out of my comfort zone. Also a shout out to my mom for always encouraging me and supporting me in everything that I do. And I can’t forget about my supportive family and friends who’ve been rocking with me since day 1. They know who they are. No matter what, they’ve always been there to lift me up. I’m so grateful for each and every one of them.
