my story
Hello, Baddies! My name is Ivy and I'm a single mom of three young daughters and a dog mom residing in Florida. I am a certified personal trainer, a car model, went to college for Medical Office Management, and am a nursing student. My dream career and my professional goal are to get my Master's degree in Nursing and become a midwife.
My passions and hobbies in life are cars, fitness, crafting, knitting, nursing, and nails. However, I decided it was time to take my passion for cars specifically, to the next level a couple of years ago. In late 2021, I started to modify my 21 Honda Accord 2.0T in my garage with no experience, a hair dryer, tweezers, and lots of determination. I must say even though I had long nails and limited tools I made it work! This point marks the birth of my first car build "Sky" and when I started my first car Instagram page. 🙌
Fast forward to June 2022, I decided to co-found a car crew, named Bay Ridaz in Tampa Bay, Florida. Bay Ridaz (now known as Syndicate Kulture) is an all-inclusive car crew open to all genders, makes, and models. Opening this car crew was a dream of mine that I was able to make a reality and was proud of my crew.
But now, it was time to take my car passion even further! In 2023, I decided to create my own business, The Baddie Driven Society L.L.C. I got my inspiration from my journey with my builds, image, car Instagram (Xgen_ Baddie), and the Bay Ridaz Crew. I wanted to start something specifically for women that were not only into cars (Car Baddies) but for women in general (The Everyday Baddie). Women's empowerment, support, self-love, and confidence are all things that are integral to my business and vision. I also wanted to be an inspiration to women all over to go after their dreams even if it's in a male-dominated domain.
Another major reason for the creation of my business is my daughters. I want to continue to be a positive role model for them. Showing my girls how to have determination, goals, dreams, ambitions, and how to be"go-getters" are values important to me as a mother.
In all, I would love all of yall's love and support in my new endeavor and dream! So, let's show the world what women can do! 💙
Cheers to the start of The Baddie Driven Society!🍷
Xoxo,
Ivy
About the brand
The Baddie Driven Society initially was created to serve as a community for female car enthusiasts (our name says it all lol ). But we decided to put a pin in that idea, for now. Since our launch in Aug 2023 we redirected our course of action and decided to take a different approach. We wanted to be able to provide something for ALL WOMEN, not just car girls!
First, we started with selling handmade and custom products for women (and some stuff for kids). Our merch carried items for women of faith, teachers, the everyday girl, latina women, car girls, and so on. Subsequently, in May 2024 we decided to take a HUGE step and become an online boutique.
However, even with all these changes we still plan to fulfill our true initial vision. That's why the final phase for T.B.D.S will be to become a national online car community. In addition to maintaining our online boutique we will finally live up to our name THE BADDIE DRIVEN SOCIETY <3 !
