About: Lelia+Mae’s founder, Nicole, launched the brand “out of pure adoration and love for Black women” and as a way to honor her mother. “I wanted to create something, a small token to Black women to empower us, provide confidence, love and make them feel beautiful as I’ve always seen us,” Nicole told POPSUGAR. The brand’s gold necklaces, rings, anklets, and earrings are sleek as can be.
