Après Ski

Après Ski-1-Design Crush

 

Après Ski is the work of designer Lucía Vergara, who crafts her line of jewelry in a Barcelona studio. Lucía has an obvious gift for pairing color, texture, and pattern, giving each piece a beautifully finished look. When you make a purchase each Après Ski piece is shipped off in a matchbox that’s been designed by a guest artist – such a nice touch to the overall experience!

Maud Vantours

Maud Vantours-1-Design Crush

 

Artwork that requires such high levels of precision repeatedly blow my mind. Part of me thinks it’s something I could take on because of my attention to detail, while the other part thinks that it would just. be. too. much. Maud Vantours hits the nail on the head with her pitch perfect color palettes and symmetrical designs.

Forest & Waves

Forest & Waves-1-Design Crush

 

The start of September signifies all things fall, which means cozy items like blankets and sweaters are fair game on the blog once again. I’m ready to start off my favorite season (thought it’s not officially here just yet) with some goods from Forest & Waves. Everything in the shop seems just right for sitting around a fire and enjoying all of the lovely cooler weather that’s heading our way.

Marcel Dunger

Marcel Dunger-1-Design Crush

 

Resin and wood simply has to be one of the most beautiful material pairings. Marcel Dunger‘s conceptual line of jewelry combining the two brings together broken pieces of maple and brightly colored bioresin to create something so simple, yet incredibly eye-catching. Looking forward to keeping track of this project and seeing if it (fingers crossed!) comes to fruition as a purveyed set of goods.

Fall Wish List

Fall-Wish-List-Design-Crush

1. A pair of Capital Pants that will look equally fantastic with a sweater or peeking out from under a coat on cool days.

2. An embossed black and white Rider Satchel to bring some pattern to any outfit.

3. Bret slip-ons are timeless and sans laces, great with a dress or jeans.

4. The über comfortable Field Dress that can be worn alone, with a jacket, or layered over a long-sleeved tee.

5. Vintage meets modern in the Mobile Necklace, which I’d love to layer with other pieces.

6. I’d wear these Skull Earrings every day from Labor Day through Halloween!

7. I love pieces like the Cocoon Cowl Pullover for cooler days.

8. Every season needs a new statement necklace, the Kalaa fits the description nicely.
