Sneak Peak: Our New Collection "Asuka"

Inspired by 7th Century Japan during this
amazing period of intense cultural
transformation.

Tea Break

As I flip through this months pages of InStyle (guilty pleasure), I realize that I have a crush on Gwen Stefani! She's fabulous! I have a thing for rock stars and the like. OK, there you have it. She's my lady crush. I think Yed's man crush might be Clooney? I'll confirm...

Update: It's Johnny Depp;)

Window Shopping at Anthropologie

I drooled over these items on my
recent trip to Anthro. I had to introduce
my Mom to this place.
Girly heaven.

My vice

Anthony Nak Finito!

Anthony Camargo and Nak Armstrong are the Austin-based designers behind Anthony Nak fine jewelry. I love the craftsmanship in their fluid designs of metal and gems. Their signature technique is encasing gems in cages of gold chains. They are shutting down and parting ways professionally. Nak Armstrong is launching his self named jewelry line this year. The images above link to their site that is currently offering their jewels at 50-70% off until their gone... Gone for good.

Lovely Visit from Mom: Part II

At Splurge Artist Boutique...
Wow! She dusted & swept every nook and cranny in
this shop! She even restocked inventory...
My momma worked on some stud
earrings (above). She's on fire!

She's hired!

big heavenly eyes.

This ceramic work by Alina Hayes is beautiful! The

I love delicate necklaces layered on with some
bold (chunkier) earrings. This also looks
great in reverse. A bold necklace
