One of the reasons I created Trend-Able was to help leg brace (Afo) wearers & others living with invisible disabilities find clothing & shoes that helps them to feel confidant so that they can live their best lives.
Hello, my soon-to-be tech-savvy, perfectly imperfect pals! Whether you’re an iOS aficionado (because once you go Apple, you’re in forever) or a die-hard Android lover, we’re about to plunge into the fascinating world of iPhone accessibility settings. Brace yourselves (I know many of you are already braced, literally! 😂) for a journey of discovery because…
I’m pretty sure fall gets the ”favorite season” award for people living with chronic conditions and disabilities. Personally, my body just works better with pumpkin spice lattes, crisp (not too hot & not too cold) air, and the return of all my favorite tv shows.
Here at Trend-Able we continue to shatter barriers and redefine what it means to be chic, empowered, and disabled. In doing so, we’re always on the lookout for new tools we can use independently to help us all to look and feel our best. Gone are the days when disability products were synonymous with dullness.…
We learn lessons the moment we can comprehend them. Some are taught in books and classrooms, and some are learned from experience.
I was diagnosed with Charcot Marie Tooth Disease (CMT), a slowly progressive and incurable neuromuscular disorder, in the 2nd grade. But no one ever taught me how to actually live with a disability.
It’s that time of year when we’re all tired of wearing sweaters and snow boots and ready to pull out the warm weather clothes. Although the days are longer and temps are beginning to rise, it’s not yet warm enough to go outside without layers, or to wear sandals without getting hypothermia.

Do you remember when we had to have our photos developed before viewing the images? The days when selfies weren’t even a thing and group shots didn’t involve a million retakes? Back then, we had no way of knowing if our arms looked flabby or if our leg braces were showing in photos until we picked up the physical prints.

I live in Michigan and it’s cold In the month of December. Yep, I know, shocking right? But, once temps drop below 40 degrees it’s all we Midwesterners ever seem to talk about…rather, complain about. For the typical and “able” winter despiser, December to early March is all about layering up, thawing out, and making it through.
The Holiday Season isn’t all jingle bells and sleigh rides when you have an invisible disability. As temps begin falling and your calendar starts filling, the stress and worry about how the hell you’ll make it through it all, rears it’s Scrooge like head. Of course this time of year can be stressful for everyone. There is a ton of pressure to be merry and create picture perfect, Norman Rockwell like moments, to then post on Facebook of course.
