Spotlight Series:: Kyron Brunson -The Loop Mag...

Hello all! 

This particular post is one that means so much to me! I'm sharing the story of my good friend and fearless leader, Kyron Brunson! Kyron is the founder and creator of The Loop Mag, which I write for. I have been writing for The Loop since 2016 and honestly,  it has been such an incredible journey. Through Kyron and The Loop, my fashion blogging journey has gone farther than I ever expected. He has sent me to fashion shows, I have been able to partake in helping style for photo shoots, even the phone conversations we have had always leave me feeling so inspired and ready to tackle the world! So today, I want to share Kyron's story. His inspirations, his goals, and how The Loop Mag came to be. 

Kyron grew up in Bed-Study Brooklyn with his mother, Karen and a younger brother. He has an older sister who still lives in Brooklyn. His mother worked as an interior decorator. "I was always with her during her tasteful excursions," he said, "She taught me how to live life no matter the conditions. Through experiencing the beauty in it and through being creative." In fact culture and art has been  a daily part of Kryon's life  always. "Walking out the door in Brooklyn there was nothing but fashion, culture, and music," he told me.  And Kyron engaged in every form of art. He did some sketching as a teen and later graffiti. 

As far as music, Kyron was heavily involved. He DJ'd and MC'd in NY -one of which he came in second place and earned him a spot on what he explains is one of "NYC's most respected underground shows, called Stretch and Bobbito." 

As he got older, his love for art, fashion, and culture never subsided. In fact it grew stronger! He needed an outlet to express his creativity. That is where The Loop Mag came into play. "I wanted to help creatives gain exposure by spotlighting the talents that grasp my interest," he said, "and yet still thrive in being creative." 

What set the plan into motion? Being around other creative people. "I had a lot of friends that were business minded and who were starting up their own businesses and going for what they loved." Interestingly enough, Kyron attempted to open his own clothing store, which ultimately did not work out. But The Loop Mag is extremely successful! It is like they say, when God closes one door he opens another. 

Which is funny, because when I first came to meet Kyron, I was ready to give up blogging. I had started blogging knowing nothing. Then a long term relationship I was in ended and I wanted to give up everything. But slowly I started venturing back out. Met a friend who was walking in a fashion show and invited me to it, and met Kyron. Another door opened. 

What I love most about Kyron is his ambition and his energy. He is always excited and always looking for the next big thing. I have yet to see him down about anything. He asks for opinions, thoughts, and feedback. He supports you always. That is something you do not find always. And he is always very kind. 

I'm so proud to be a part of this amazing team. Kyron, thank you so much for these opportunities. I cannot wait to see where we go next! ​​
