It's Capricorn SZN - 7 Black-Owned Brands for the Hardworking & Ambitious

It’s Capricorn season! The first and last days of every year are dedicated to this zodiac sign — December 22 to January 19. The GOAT of the twelve signs, Capricorns are known for their fearless ambition and resilience. It’s said that Capricorns have a bit of a wild side that we’d be lucky to see. Maybe they’d show it if they got to unwind more! So for our ambitious, hard-working, and disciplined Capricorns, here are seven Black-owned businesses aligned with their personality.

NOTIQ

Penned as the “personal organization for the elegant and ambitious,” NOTIQ is the perfect Black-owned business for our ambitious Capricorns. We’re drawn to the brand over their collection of planners and agendas, but their large collection of workplace essentials keep us searching the website. Whether you’re on the hunt for a new bag or simply want a few new pens, NOTIQ has all of that and more.

Brown Girl Jane

Capricorns are always ON, and they need some time for rest and relaxation too. Brown Girl Jane is pushing the wellness of women through mind, body, and fragrance. For the hard-working Capricorns who can’t seem to unwind at nighttime, the brand has their Rest Wellness Drops. Made with a blend of CBD, the drops “support deep and rehabilitative sleep” and can easily be added to food or drinks.

Talley & Twine

Our disciplined Capricorns always have someplace to be, and in order for them to get there, they need a good timepiece. The clean and classic designs of Talley & Twine are made for tastemakers, trendsetters, and trailblazers.

The Africa Cookbook

What’s more ambitious than trying your hand at a few new recipes? Whether you’re from the South or have Caribbean roots, you might be familiar with a different set of flavors and ingredients in your food than those with current ties to the African continent. The ambitious Capricorns who want to add something new to their kitchen should try The Africa Cookbook: Tastes Of A Continent.

Creamlicious

What better way to reward a hard day's work than with some ice cream. Our Capricorns need to tap into Creamalicious.

HerSpace Co.

Capricorns are disciplined, and in order to stay that way, they’ll need a planner.
