Coco & Breezy

Twin sisters, Corianna and Brianna Dotson are the epitomai of chic. Better known as Coco & Breezy in dance music, these iconic women continue to leave me speechless the more I learn about them. Not only are they incredible producers, but they’re also the founders of Coco & Breezy Eyewear, a stellar service providing folks with the sickest eye frames. When they aren’t running their business, they’re traveling the world, playing events like EDC Las Vegas, Brownies & Lemonade Spring Break, and Do LaB at Coachella.

Further, Coco & Breezy were featured on LP Giobbi‘s Femme House compilation, and their library is overflowing with bangers like “U.” featuring Dawn Richards, “Convo,” and “Liftin Me Up.” These Afro Latina twins will have you vibing with your friends and soaking up the sunrays, so prepare to feel like the coolest person ever after experiencing their radiance.
