This twenty-six year old Missouri native is now one of the most sought-after designers in the Bay area.

  Her pieces having been seen on celebrities such as Shaunie O' Neal, Evelyn Lozada and Vanessa Simmons just to name a few, and have caught the eye of the artistic at heart and those who dare to be different.

  We sit down with Kyra Kouture, CEO & Chief Designer of Bedlam Accessories.

Q. Tell me a little bit about Bedlam, how did it start and how did you come up with the name for it?

I couldn’t muster up the confidence to go back to my sixth period PE class.  
 What was once a social gathering for the popular kids, was now a never-ending catfight that always ended with me being emotionally ripped to shreds. I felt so stupid at times because I was afraid to speak up for myself, in fear that I would have to make a habit of it.
Seemed as if I was teased for everything, my shoes, my clothes, my hair, and my weight.
I had now come to realize that in their eyes, I would never be good enough...

Today, homosexuality is on the rise in the African American community. It’s now ok to be “Gay” more now than it was 10 years ago. When I was growing up you may have suspected someone of being gay but it was almost taboo to speak about it especially in the black church. The issue for me isn’t gay men, and the only reason for this blog is the “DL Brothas” (Down Low) who are leading heterosexual lives in front their family, friends and coworkers but having homosexual romances in other words “living a double life” with other men.

The first time we heard talented neo-soul artist Neyo sing his top charted single "Ms Independent" We loved it. Then it was the sexy and soulful Jamie Foxx and Neyo with the song "She Got Her Own" and we ate right into their hands. Singing and bobbing our head to these songs. But I ask the question..."What Are the Reasons Men Want an Independent Woman?"
