Family Values
Volume 1 Issue 1 May 2023
Fashion is about self-expression and the self has a connection to the family. Growing up in the 1970’s, in Liberia West Africa, we were questioned about our family ties when ever we met a friend’s parents for the first time. The friend’s parents would ask, “who are your parents.” Back then, people judged you by your family ties. My grandmother would say, “you are a Wilson, so hold your head up and stand proud like a Wilson.” We represented our family and every negative or positive image we presented would impact our family’s reputation. This made you think carefully about how you presented yourself in public.

Today, Mackeline International Fashion Magazine still believes in family values. We believe in integrity, honesty, dedication, respect, commitment, and a positive self-image. We expect our team members to adhere to those values. As humans we do act out of character from time to time. However, when this happens, we work quickly to correct our mistakes and strive to improve our actions. As the saying goes, “to Err is human, to forgive divine.”
Our model is, “we strive to improve the lives of those we do business with.” We want to leave the world better than we found it.
It’s our hope to inspire our readers to also strive and achieve their best. Together we can leave our world better than we found it.
