Tracy Green and Nancey Harris’s Vontélle Eyewear caters to people of color with frames crafted for their facial features
When daytime television host Kelly Clarkson introduced Tracy Green and Nancey Harris as “mamas in their 50s proving it’s never too late to try something big”, her guests were none too happy about having their ages on full blast.
The business partners’ mood improved when a fellow guest, Mika Brzezinski, appeared via satellite to surprise the Brooklyn-based eyewear entrepreneurs with an all-expenses-paid trip to Abu Dhabi. The MSNBC host informed the business partners that they would be attending the Forbes 30/50 Summit, a conference for women in business.
