WHO STARTED IT?
Hey there, I'm Neeraj, but you can call me Nik. I'm the brains and heart behind VESTIREZ, and I'm seriously stoked that you're taking a minute to get to know us. In this crazy fast world, your time means the world to me.
Let's rewind a bit – back to when I was a kiddo with a love for doodling and pouring my feelings onto paper, on side of every page of every notebook. School life had its script, but deep down, I knew the whole money-making career thing wasn't my jam.
I'd rather be that person who keeps learning and adding good vibes to the world, because there's no better feeling than knowing you left something to the good for people to remember.
I've always been a bit of a closed book, you know? Even with awesome friends around, there's this itch to share feelings without really saying them. And I figured, there must be tons out there feeling the same way – silently wanting to be heard.
Fast forward to 2021, I landed in Canada for studies and by 19, I dropped a poetry bomb called "Where Do I Belong?" on the world. Turns out, people vibed with it, and one message struck a chord – "I wish I could express myself like this."
That poetry gig wasn't the end game; it was just the opening act. The big dream? Create a clothing brand, VESTIREZ, where feelings meet fabric. My art, my stories – all stitched into designs that scream "be you." Why? 'Cause life's too short to wear boring clothes and art will always stay.
Remember those doodles in the school notebook? That was me at my realest. And then it hit me – why not turn those feelings into threads? So, here we are, on a journey where every design echoes life's rollercoaster – the ups, downs, and the big ol' hug of acceptance.
Sure, I'm still figuring out life's grand plan. But as long as my soul nudges me to be a dude remembered for helping others be better, I'm in. Life's a bit like my diary quote: "To be courageous is to accept you are afraid." We're all a bit scared, but hey, let's rock our true selves anyway.
So, huge thanks for being part of this ride. If you read through this, you've probably felt the same rollercoaster I have. Just remember, life's a wild ride, and you're not as lost as you think. Big hugs! 🚀✨
