Natasha Mayne dubbed 'The Vogue Attorney' challenges the status quo of what it means to be a lawyer and Black in America
I wish I could take the credit for naming myself The Vogue Attorney, but my followers on Instagram came up with this amazing name. This name embodies exactly who I am. I am a lover of beautiful and luxurious clothes because clothing myself in the finest garments makes me feel like a giant ready to conquer the world. My sense of style reflects my personality: eclectic, bold, opinionated, and eccentric.
I grew up in a big family with very humble beginnings, so I learned to be creative with the little I had. At 12 years old, I used my mother’s sewing machine to make clothes or added adornments to the pieces I already had. My peers in middle school loved my style and demanded for me to make pieces for them. That was my first taste of entrepreneurship when I started a clothing line.
Many people loved it, but the naysayers would say, “what does inspiration have to do with the law.” My response was, “inspiration has everything to do with law, wait until it is your turn to deal with the law, you will have an instant addiction to inspiration.
As a Black woman in a predominantly white male world, racism and sexism do exist. I have experienced it, but I am resilient, goal-oriented, and purpose-driven. My focus is to be the change-maker as I put my energy in my work in which my success rate speaks for itself. I know the stereotypes regarding women lawyers or just Black women alone. I see it all the time, but I do not embrace it. No one can take away my unshakable confidence. I love challenges and going through trials and tribulations.
