Hi, I’m Shakira,

a wife, girl mom of two, and the artist behind Kira Silas & Co.

My journey into digital illustration started back in 2021 when I decided to follow my heart and leave my job as an elementary school teacher.
Exploring different art forms, like calligraphy and faceless portraits, eventually led me to my true passion — fashion illustration.
Fast forward to 2024, and Kira Silas & Co. was born.

— My art is inspired by us.

I'm passionate about capturing the grace and femininity of black women in each illustration.

It’s tough navigating the world as a black woman, and it's essential to carve out spaces where we feel seen, valued, and empowered.

With this in mind — each sticker collection draws inspiration from the latest fashion trends within our community and is infused with empowering messages to keep you motivated.

My Planning Style

I currently plan using A5 rings. I love the customization and flexibility that comes with it.

I am obsessed with the minimal planning aesthetic. I'm the type to spend hours flipping through neatly hand-written spreads.

But, of course I still need a sprinkle of deco paired with a cute sticker doll to spice things up!

I love sharing my planner spreads and getting inspo from the planner community - be sure to connect with me!

xo,

Kira
