Leslie Cordray is a fourth-generation Houstonian who built her career in fashion, e-commerce & brand strategy before leaving the corporate world after 16 years. Post-college, she spent her twenties living in Los Angeles and New York, working with iconic brands like Ralph Lauren, Kate Spade, and Levi’s.
Eventually, Houston called her home, where she held leadership roles at Francesca’s and Visual Comfort. Today she runs Fête, a boutique consulting and creative studio that partners with small, women-owned businesses on everything from website design and marketing to overall brand and business strategy. She also runs Shop Fête Finds, a curated online shop featuring affordable accessories, gifts & skincare, all under $100.
When she’s not working, you’ll find Leslie shopping with her daughter, Annie (2013), watching Real Housewives, or searching for the best cold brew around (she’s never without an iced coffee in-hand!)
She’s a proud Houston mom who believes in supporting local and celebrating women-owned businesses. Leslie & her family reside in the Memorial Area.
