My name is Krista, and I am the founder and designer of Krista Marie Designs. I have been an educator in k-5th for the past 10 years. I started creating accessories officially in 2010 after I gave up modeling and found my love for fashion design. I went to get my bachelor's at the Academy of Art University in arts-fashion design. I started my shop making jewelry; specifically working with polished crystals to creating my own fashions in clothing and more. I mainly focused on plus size. But my biggest passion has just been in creating what was fun, cute and soft for me and connect with those who just want to enjoy the life in front of them. I am now a mother of 2 young boys and my passions to thrives and pushes me to create.
