I was initially totally annoyed by the new bag rules established by stadiums across the nation.  After finding no great options on the shelves, I created one!

I have 3 go-to outfit ideas for game day: 1. Casual Dress In Your Team’s Color. I like to shop right out of my closet for this one and pick something I would wear everyday. I usually pair a casual dress with a jacket or cardigan and top it off with wedges or boots. I also like to wear my everyday jewelry with this look. Dress like yourself, it will make you more comfortable. 2. Jersey + Skinnies. A jersey and skinny jeans (or shorts) is always a safe bet. You can dress it up with a blazer and heels, or go totally casual with boots or tennis shoes. If my #1 reason for going to the game is the concession stand, you can bet I will be wearing my stretchy skinny jeans. 3. Team Tank or Tee. I’m not referencing that huge worn out tee you sleep in.... Wear a simple team tee or tank. When going with this option, I make sure my hair and make up are on point to class it up. I love going with an inside joke or slogan tee to support my favorite team.

This is my first VLOG E-V-E-R!  Excuse my nerves, I didn't really plan it and have never edited videos before.  I started vlogging to document the journey of creating Give Her Six.  This episode is mostly taped in Gleason, TN.  The Sixers are modeling new fall additions.

I'm so glad you are here!   So here's the deal-every time I shop for game day apparel to support my favorite teams, I'm sadly disappointed with the selection.  The options in the pro shop and in large chain athletic stores seem to be: 1. Cut and sized awkwardly - the struggle is real. 2. Pink - This girl loves pink, but as we all know, on Wednesdays we wear pink, not game days. 3. Mean spirited or tacky - keep it classy, ya'll. 4. Everyone is already wearing it, and I'm not trying to twink on accident. Let me introduce you to my plan to remedy this "situation".....Meet GIVE HER SIX. I've started with the teams near and dear to my heart, but plan to expand to every city and market where there is a need for smart, comfy and classy comfort wear to support your favorite team.   Have a brilliant idea for my new brand?  Are you in a market that is under-supported when it comes to game day apparel you actually want to wear?  Comment here or shoot me an email at givehersix@gmail.com, I would love to hear from you.    

Picking the name of a business is tough, I can't imagine the struggle to choose a baby name!  Here's the story behind the name, enjoy! Short version: Like when a guy scores a touchdown, except for girls. Real version: I have so many childhood memories centered around sports.  From staying up late to watch the Bulls own the court in the 90s, to playing softball every summer, sporting events were a staple in my life.  There were no professional teams in Tennessee until 1997, so the logical team for the entire state to rally behind was the University of Tennessee, and my family was no exception.  ALL-VOL-EVERYTHING.  If the games were not on cable television, we would tune our radios to John Ward on Saturday afternoons in the Fall. John Ward was the play-by-play broadcaster for the Vols for over 30 years, and his voice is legendary.  The pure excitement John Ward shot through the radio when calling a touchdown was electrifying.  He would exclaim, "Give Him Six! Touchdown, Tennessee! (T) " and the entire state would cheer.   The joyful memories of days when my little world stopped to cheer on the Vols sparked by John Ward's voice are magical.  The power sports have to bring people together and feel all the feels is magical.  I wanted to capture that spirit in the name of my game day apparel line, Give Her Six was born.   xoxo, Julie
