We had the good fortune of connecting with Da’Areona Wright and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Da’Areona, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
I, Da’Areona Wright, the owner of online boutique “AMOURAE” lives by the slogan, “if you never take the risk, you’ll never know the outcome.” The process of starting my clothing boutique was really rocky. At first, i faced doubts that no one would purchase. I thought I would just be a small town girl with such big dreams that no one would support. I pushed off the thought of owning my own business for awhile until i finally realized that fashion is my passion. It is what makes me happy. So i took the risk and i don’t regret it not one bit! Imagine if 6 months ago i didn’t launch my business, then i wouldn’t be featuring in this magazine! Or i wouldn’t make many women around the world feel as good as they do when they look in the mirror everyday. I encourage everyone to take risks in life. That one risk that you are afraid to take just might your life.

What should our readers know about your business?
My business is AMOURAE. It is an online clothing boutique that aims to help women feel good about themselves again. Through covid-19, postpartum, depression, self-sabotage, etc. many women are left feeling not good enough. I was that woman. How many can agree that once you get really dolled up and put on the nicest outfit in our closets, that all of our worries then disappear. That is our mission here at AMOURAE. We abide by “If you look good, you feel good!”

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I am from a small city in South Carolina called Spartanburg aka, sparkle city. We don’t have much but we make the best of what we do have. I would first take you to infamous restaurant “The beacon.” There is only one in the entire world. After your tummy is full you might want to lounge around for a bit so then we would head to Hatcher gardens, where you could sit and relax in the mist of waterfalls & nature. Later on you might be in the mood for some nightlife activities so i would then take you to Midtown or Upscale two of the most popular bars/clubs in Spartanburg. We also have a few fun activities such as; Underpin bowling alley, Big air trampoline park, and Speed factory indoor go-carting to name a few!

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I would like to give a huge shoutout to my mother, De-Ian Floyd, who has always supported me and pushed to reach every goal in life that i have set for myself. She is a hardworking woman that inspires me to go 10x harder with everything i do!
