Seven-year-old CEO (Cutest Executive Officer) Lily Adeleye has just launched her second product in Walmart!
At just 6-years-old Adeleye made history with a new Walmart deal, becoming the youngest Black-owned brand in the store’s history to have products on their shelves. Now, she is expanding her Lily Frilly hair accessory brand to include a range of princess bows and barrettes for girls of all ages. They even have funky names like Mini Party & Mini Melon Bows, Electric Dazzle Bows, and Confetti Fruit Clips.
Lily Frilly also offers other hair accessories, backpacks, lunch boxes, and more!
