Originally used as ‘a term of address among black people’, Soul Sister means ‘a black woman’. Slowly the term has been changed and used to describe ‘a woman whose thoughts, feelings and attitudes closely match those of another; a kindred spirit.’
Here at Sister & Soul we love hearing stories about friendship and believe there is nothing lovelier than women standing shoulder to shoulder, supporting each other.
To celebrate sisterhood we want to share ten friendship quotes that describe what it means to have and be a Soul Sister.
Why not send them to your bestie; a friend you dream of keeping forever.
Soul Sisters feel like home...
When the world seems to be falling down around us, and it feels like there is trouble on all sides, Soul Sisters offer us a fresh perspective.
