About Us

Kinj Collective is an online {and occasional pop-up} women’s lifestyle boutique, proudly based in Wilmington, DE. We’re all about curating unique, high-quality collections from brands that are built by women, for women.

This isn’t your typical one-stop shop {and we don't try to be}—we’re here to sprinkle a little extra flair into your already amazing lifestyle with finds that feel intentional and totally you.

Keira currently lives in Wilmington, DE with her fiancé and their fur baby, Tyler—the unofficial CBO (Chief Bark Officer). A longtime supporter of small businesses and a lover of unique finds, Keira has been working in the small business world since she was 16.

In 2020, she decided it was time to bring her own vision to life. By September 2021, kinjcollective.com was officially launched, offering a curated selection of clothing, jewelry, and home accessories. Since then, she’s expanded the shop to include her own handmade pieces—featuring hand-embroidered clothing and 14k gold-filled jewelry.

 

So, what’s behind the name Kinj? It’s actually Keira’s nickname from college — a twist on her initials from her first jewelry brand, Keira Nicole Jewelry, which she started in her dorm room. Her friends called her “KNJ,” pronounced like “hinge”… with a K. She later added the “I” to make the pronunciation more intuitive — and from there, Kinj became the perfect name to carry her creative journey forward.
