Garnett Jewelry @NeedSupply Summer lookbook

This lookbook is screaming SUMMER to me.  I love the photography- a little grainy and very pre-digital era feeling.  Makes me a little nostalgic!  Also thrilled to see our Zapotec Necklace and Kahlo Bib Necklace made the cut.

Getting (Made In) Faro

One of the most rewarding things for me as a designer is seeing one of my pieces being enjoyed by someone.  I came across this blog post on (Made In) Faro recently and must say it made my day!  I'm embarrassed to say I can't really understand what she is saying (it's in French), but judging from the pictures I think she's into it.  And I love her tank, which I'm pretty sure she made herself!

Getting The Job Done @SidneyAndSons

I love a good tote bag and there doesn't seem to be a shortage of companies offering their take on the it.  My latest find is Sidney and Sons.  They have a small shop on Etsy with simple styles in heavy duty canvas with leather details and all their bags are made in New York City.  What sets these guys apart from so many I have seen lately is that they are committed to keeping their bags clean and simple in design and material.  They aren't trying to reinvent the wheel here.  They are just focused on making durable, canvas bags that will last, at a fair and reasonable price.  The only frills to be found here (if these can be considered frills) are the specially selected heavy duck canvases, hand chosen rivets and vegetable dyed leathers.  These are serious bags for getting the job done.
