Cali Made Me Collection
Born and raised in the vibrant heart of Los Angeles, we, the founders of CaliCollective.store, are two BIPOC women whose hearts and souls are deeply embedded in the culture of the West Coast. Our journey began in the City of Angels, where the colorful blend of diversity, creativity, and resilience shapes everything we do. Cali Made Me is more than just a collection — it’s a celebration of where we come from and the culture that has shaped us.
In this collection, we embrace the intersections of our identities — women of color, proud Angelenos, and creators who draw inspiration from the rich tapestry of California life. The beaches, the streets, the sunsets, the music, and the freedom that the West Coast offers — all of this is woven into the fabric of who we are. This collection is a tribute to the pride we feel in our roots and the unique bond we share with this land, its people, and its ever-evolving culture.
Through Cali Made Me, we invite you to connect with the spirit of California — where dreams are made, cultures collide, and authenticity reigns. It’s a tribute to our journey, our heritage, and the love we have for the place we call home. Welcome to the culture, the energy, and the heart of the West Coast.
Acknowledgment Statement
We would like to take a moment to acknowledge the rich history of the land we call home. As BIPOC women born and raised in California, we are deeply grateful to our immigrant families who came to this land seeking opportunity, strength, and belonging. Their stories, sacrifices, and resilience are the foundation of everything we create.
We also recognize that California is home to the ancestral lands of numerous Indigenous peoples, including the Tongva, Chumash, and Ohlone nations, along with all other Indigenous communities whose cultures and histories continue to influence the land we inhabit today. We honor their stewardship and the deep connection they maintain with the earth, the waters, and the skies.
Our work, our creations, and our growth are made possible by the rich diversity and legacy of this land. We stand in solidarity with Indigenous peoples and acknowledge the need for continued efforts toward restorative justice, recognition, and healing.
