Lizzie Fortunato‘s Spring/Summer ’18 collection is inspired by a summer of love and full of the prettiest golden tones and statement pieces (naturally). It’s a smorgasbord of organic shapes, a 1960s vibe, and fringe – you can also get a peek of FW18 and pre-order!
Dorota and Sylwia, two sisters from Poland, make and sell the most beautiful linen pieces under the moniker Taftyli. The creation of each hand-dyed design is backed by their motto of simply and naturally, as well as their love of playing with color.
Marion Vidal started her jewelry line back in 2004, creating a dialogue between color, material, and shape within every piece. Her geometric creations play with several contrasts – rigidity vs. flexibility, strength vs. fragility, balance vs. break, and gross vs. refined – and I’m especially drawn to Marion’s necklaces.
Kilometre takes extremely vintage shirts and uses them as a canvas to express a love of travel. Hand embroidery reveals elusive locales that may or may not be the hotspots of tomorrow through maps, sketches, and coordinates. All of Kilometre’s garments come with a passport matching the destination of the product with a booklet about the brand and its history.
3/ The Simplicity Collection from Aera
This little home fragrance machine helps keep my home smelling pet-free, and their latest collection – citrus, lavender, white tea, sandalwood, cherry blossom, and vanilla – are the perfect scents for this transitional time of year.
4/ Saya Designs Taro Hair Stick
I’ve been using this gorgeous hair stick constantly in lieu of hair elastics. It helps keep my hair from breaking off and the dark, reddish rosewood paired with golden tamarind is just beautiful.
5/ Eastside Design Co. Enamel Pins
Are you an enamel pin junky, too? These little guys from a college friend’s shop are my latest additions.
HOZEN‘s collection of bags are all vegan and sustainably made in California because Rae Nicoletti wanted to prove that philanthropy can look as good as it feels. The result is a line that honors and respects the planet. The bags are made from eco-friendly luxury synthetic leather and suede, zippers and thread sourced from 100% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles, natural rubber, and remnant rope, and labels and packaging made from organic cotton or post-consumer recycled paper. And it’s all sourced from factories around the world with high standards of ethics, responsibility, and governance. HOZEN’s current collection is made of up of three bag designs in six color options.
