Rebel & Rooted was born from the belief that you can come from complicated places, carry a few scars, and still build a life that feels completely your own.

I'm El, and this is my little corner of the internet where the messy parts of life meet the beautiful ones.

Here you'll find handmade pieces, thoughtfully designed T-shirts, and eventually more things inspired by the conversations, experiences, humor, and everyday moments that make up Rebel & Rooted.

Some pieces are playful. Some are a little edgy. Some carry a message.

All of them are meant to feel like you don't have to choose between being a little rebellious and being deeply rooted.

Make your life yours.

Don't hide the scars. We grow from them.
