Casual summer style | tassel necklace outfit with shift dress and sandals
There's nothing easier for summer than a dress in my book. Nothing too tight, breathable materials and simple cuts are things I'm always on the lookout for. This orange shift dress I picked up in Bali a couple years ago is still one of my faves. Adding a tassel necklace and embroidered sandals makes it a summer style I come back to again and again.
A colorful tote bag is a summer must-have!
Intricately hand embroidered, these beautiful tote bags are the perfect addition to your summer style! So fun yet so functional, this shoulder bag is generously sized to allow space to carry everything. But on those days when you don't have to be a pack mule? Side snaps for a slimmer profile (as shown above)! See how one of our customers styled hers with white shorts and a striped top...
Butterfly Wing Jewelry collection has arrived!
I've loved butterflies since childhood. Seeing their beauty and grace as they flutter from bloom to bloom in spring was always a source of wonder. How could wings so thin carry them so far? I used to doodle butterflies perched on mushrooms in my notebooks at school. So, it's no surprise that I'd design a collection around butterflies, I just don't know why it took so long!
