Emotional surrender...

Instantly twinkling... stylish and dashing... fetching and fabulous... Just a few words to capture the sensibility of slipping into one of these lovelies... I know many of you have already surrendered to them... I know I certainly have! I mean, what isn't to love about delicious embroidery, spot-on color, and rollicking good fun? (I, for one, am smitten.) The girls at the studio asked me to take a few twirls in front of the camera to show you how luscious these statement pieces really are... our Modern Vintage Coat... Fancy Free Sweatshirt... A Fetching Coat... I realize this is just a taste of our amazing fashion... We'll have more for you soon! As always, please do share your favorites... It's so fun to hear!

Emotional surrender...

I am going to give you my thoughts every few weeks on this topic... We all have them... an "emotional surrender" that is! In the studio it changes from week to week... I love knowing what our team is digging... I am pretty vocal about mine! I figured the video would give it to you straight... no fluff... Just exactly what I am thinking in a few quick moments... also kind of nice to see things on someone... Don't you agree?!? This extra chatter is for those of you that just needed a few more words on the topic... (And you know I can talk!)

Okay... The Gordian Knot... The bracelet of bracelets... over the top... kills me! I have one in my purse right now to take home. (You think I'm kidding.) Straight out of our sample tray! Classic, elegant... a statement without looking like wonder woman.

The Fragments of Beauty ring... I gave it today as a gift, and then sort of "lost it" right then and there as she slid it onto her finger... Mind you, I have loved it all along... but I think with a bit of additional girl talk on it, I was "in"... I decided I too must have one!

Ahhhhh... The Soulful Glam necklace... not too much about this beauty that you can't see for yourself... but since this is my chance... I have this love affair happening with gold coins! My mother has always had gold coin jewelry, so I'm certain she has yet again inspired me and my tastes... I think this beauty feels vintage... the sort of gem I would hope to find at some great auction in London. Shall we dance??

Emotional surrender...

Oh, how I have... to the LOTUS COFFEE TABLE... Perhaps this sounds odd? Surrender to a coffee table? Can it be?? You might think... a new pair of leopard shoes... or a fabulous shirt... Not today!! Today, it's this... this one. This scrumptious one! And this is why... We just rearranged all of our furniture in our great room at home, and have made a wonderful new reading spot... I NEED this most luscious table right there!!! Loving, just loving it! I love bamboo, as you know (another weakness). It’s a scorching gem, this one... and quite perfect near a couch (or in my case, a few overstuffed chairs)... I knew when I was designing this beauty exactly what she had to be... I am very inspired by Moroccan looks... I thought the layer of black hand-painting would be delicious with all the other elements. It somehow manages to be refined, enchanting... and quite handsome, all at the same time. I love the idea of it on an old, tattered red oriental rug... or on a gorgeous black wood floor... all beaten and worn with age. I love that I can sit near it (or our kids can) and play a game while sitting on a pillow on the floor... We are pretty laid back in our home, and things really do get used... I know that this spicy number will end up with scratches from matchbox cars rolling over her, or whatever else our children choose to drag across her top... It's all good to me... and my emotional surrender will be entirely satisfied!!! Stay tuned...
