In early 2024 I rebranded from We Five Kings to Ti In early 2024 I rebranded from We Five Kings to Tiffany King Creative.

I knew I wanted to shift toward fashion and personal branding but I was not sure how to make that change without losing what I had already built. So I kept creating and sat with it for a while.

In June 2025 I made the move. I added one digital marketing post per week. One post. Same cadence. Just a new direction layered in.

The engagement on those posts was lower. It was noticeable and honestly it was uncomfortable. But I had made a commitment to give it time and I kept going.

Here is what I want you to know about making a content shift.

There will be a dip. That is not a sign to stop. That is just the algorithm and your audience catching up to where you are going. You have to decide before you start how long you are going to commit to the change. Because if you abandon the plan after one week because the numbers scared you, you will never know what was on the other side.

What was on the other side for me was people using my content in their businesses. Followers coming in specifically because of the digital marketing posts. Real feedback from real people telling me it was helping them.

And the newsletters. Shifting my newsletters to match the digital focus has been the biggest benefit of the entire change. Getting that content straight into someone’s inbox is a different kind of connection than a post in a feed.

Create content that is consistent with what is actually happening in your life and your business. Your community will shift and grow with you.

But only if you give them something real to find.

Save this for the next time you are afraid to make a change.

It is August and that is not early. That is right on time.

Most people start thinking about holiday content in October. By then you have already missed brand collab deadlines, photographer availability, and Pinterest’s content window. The creators and small businesses that win the holiday season start planning now.

Here is what your August should look like:

-Pitch brands you want to work with — they are finalizing budgets right now
-Book your holiday shoot — photographers fill up fast in the fall
-Get your Halloween content on Pinterest — it needs 60 days to develop, that window is now
-Start mapping your anchor dates and working backwards

The collab I met about yesterday has a hard deadline of October 7th. That is 2.5 months before Christmas. Paid collabs have a process: outreach, contracts, approvals, posting. There is no rushing that timeline.

And here is something most people do not think about. Online buying starts plateauing around December 15th. If you are an affiliate seller or an online business your sales need to happen before that date. Local businesses have a little more runway but do not rely on it.

Christmas content needs to be on Pinterest no later than October.

Your holiday shoot needs to happen in September.
Your brand pitches need to go out now.

The holiday season is closer than you think.

Ruffle Your Feathers: Swimsuits with Ruffles

I decided this summer I was going to start each post about swimsuits with an encouraging statement. Summer can be a really hard time if you are dealing with personal body issues. I think it is very easy to say, just wear a swimsuit anyway, but we are not all in the same place. So I would encourage you to do this, try something new and do something that makes you feel bold this summer! It may be rocking a bikini for one person or shorts for the first time for another but take a small step out of your comfort zone!

And one more thing… When you see someone at the pool, ladies, let’s start encouraging each other more! Oh, my gosh I love your suit / sunglasses / coverup / smile / tan / ability to wrangle your kids and not look sweaty! Yell out QUEEN!! Whatever it is just compliment someone and if they compliment you just say, Thank you!

A day at the pool or on the beach is the perfect place to show off some cute swim style. Ruffles make me feel fun and fabulous so I’m rounding up some of my favorite swimmies with ruffles!

I don’t live in New Orleans but my heart is always there. The events, culture, people, vibe… you can’t get it anywhere else. She’s a city with a pulse and a soul. She thinks she’s special because at the end of the day no one else is like her. And it my book that makes her pretty special.
