Welcome to Brit Chic in Detroit

Hi mates

Welcome to my new blog, Brit Chic in Detroit. I am Jan Thompson an expat Brit who lives in Metro Detroit; Royal Oak to be exact. I have started my own fashion brand called Brit Chic Designs. The brand reflects my passion for British fashion and my life as an expat. For the last 10 years I have resided in the USA, apart from the two years I spent living in Japan. My view of the world is forever changed by the experiences I have had in not one but two new cultures. But all that aside I still remain true to my British roots.

Brit Chic Designs couples British inspired fashion with American manufacture. Most of my products are made in the USA. I am in the process of expanding my product range from just tee shirts to dresses and purses. My tees shirts can be found in Incognito in downtown Royal Oak and Triple Thread on 14 Mile Road and main in Clawson.

This blog will be a commentary on my journey as a new business women in Detroit and my views of Detroit Fashion through the eyes of a Brit. It will include pictures of street fashion and interviews with Detroit musicians and business owners about their favorite fashion icons and items in their own closets.

Cheerio

Jan
