ABOUT ME: DERRA HOWARD

Hi! I’m Derra, your go-to for fashion trends, beauty tips, natural hair care, and Instagram insights, all while keeping things fun and engaging! My journey began in September 2017 after leaving my job as a 9th-grade teacher due to epilepsy. Blogging became my creative outlet, allowing me to share my epilepsy journey and connect with others. Over the years, I’ve expanded into brand promotions, event hosting, and more.
Events: I’ve teamed up with Launchpad NOLA and Midcity Yacht Club for events like the "Derra Howard Experience" and Epilepsy Awareness events during Essence Music Festival Weekend.
Brand Collaborations: I’ve worked with PJ's Coffee, Blavity, Vaseline, Michael Todd Beauty, and many more.
I attended New York Fashion Week in 2019 and 2020, and Miami Swim Week in 2022.
Line By Daye: My clothing line, "Line By Daye," is currently on pause but coming back soon!
Film: I’m now acting, writing, and directing my own work since January 2020.
Saving Grace Epilepsy Foundation: Founded in March 2020 to support those with epilepsy. We attended two Essence Festivals and spreaded epilepsy awarenss.
Stay safe & blessed,
Derra
