LOVEBEATZ4PEACE

Such powerful times...feeling the importance to keep sharing and shining LOVE. Inspired by my son Jax, aka liljax, who's growing in his beat mixing skills (and little brother maZen, who's dancing his heart out expressing himself), sharing the love and shining their light during this time of big change and awakening... we came up with making beatz for peace to reflect this time. 20% of profits from this tee, will be donated to different organizations working towards racial equity, social justice and peace.

lilzen : works of heART

For years now, little brother maZen has witnessed how liljax has grown and evolved. This inspired us and planted a seed, sparking interest in his own line of clothing. To honor maZen (aka Maze, aka lilZen), and his beautiful art, expression and wise words - this new line is out for the big wide world to see. For now you will find his works of heART in his very own section within this website.

Love and light to all. 

SHINE

Sovereign BEing

Imagine if we all remembered that we were born as Sovereign BEings, already in our truest essence from the beginning. The inspiration for this piece is to remember to keep growing and raising our inner child to BE who we truly are. Sovereign BEings.

The exploration of recent work around conscious parenting, has led me to a new, clearer understanding of how children come to us, already in their truest, purest form and essence – that they are, Sovereign BEings. Having an understanding of this with how I interact with and honor my two boys, has lifted the weight that I felt, in trying to be the best mother to them. The way in which I see it now, is that as an adult, in a family dynamic, we are rather co-travelers on a wild, amazing, ever expanding and growing journey - learning from each other. And we are all, Sovereign BEings.

We recently received a small batch of unused, blank t-shirts, providing the perfect opportunity to screen print a design I created, that came about from this realization. This first run was a test experience as I’m learning the art of screen printing. We will continue to source salvaged materials to keep in alignment with living consciously and reducing textile waste.

Testimonials

Both Asha and her lil jax upcycled clothing line are truly so magical and inspiring! The quality and workmanship; as well as the deep love, intention, and thoughtfulness she pours into each piece of clothing is something very special and so deeply felt. I love the self expression her designs allow for and how they have lasted my daughters and I through the years! The Earth is honored by her creations because each piece is upcycled and saved from the landfills! It’s such a beautiful and ethical process from start to finish and I’m so proud and blessed to be able to adorn my little family in these unique and mindful treasures Asha creates!

Carmen (mama of twins)

Limits of the imagination are untethered in the fashion freedom of this creative woman.
Upcycled from remnant finds, her California coastal creations are uniquely timeless. Each piece is one-of-a-kind magic. My daughter adores her wears with a love and pride as beautiful as their creator. 

Brett (papa to Emerson)

I have been purchasing clothes and accessories from lil jax for years, my son basically grew up wearing all lil jax stuff. Everything we have gotten from lil jax is not only very unique and one-of-a-kind items, some were made specifically with my son or me in mind, and the quality is unbeatable. Also good for  Mother Earth as she uses only up-cycled fabrics. She has us as customers for life! She made everyone of my sons' birthdays so special with her OOAK pieces that match his birthday party themes.

Marina (mom of Nikita)

Bought my first pair of pants at a craft fair, and loved them so much I tracked lil jax down on the internet! Since then, I’ve bought soft, inspiring, and beautiful pieces that bring joy to my day!
