The Vamoose.


The Vamoose is an amazing handmade jewelry collection from the UK designed by Kathryn Blackmore. She garners her inspiration from various places around Europe and the world which results in each piece telling it's own story. 

Her work has been featured on many of our favorite style blogs and now we know where to go next time we're in the need of amazing hand crafted accessories. (she ships worldwide, sometimes even for free!) Get to know her.

Ode to Loulou.


Today we pay tribute to the original muse of haute couture, Loulou de la Falaise. She died November 5th in her home in France, after a year long battle with cancer.  She was 64 and much too young.

Loulou was a fashion pioneer, she challenged the normal standard for women's wear and became the muse and closest confidante of Yves Saint Laurent. She was the first person to inject the Paris collections with bursts of jewelry and solidified the importance of hand crafted baubles as an integral part of each season's collection. She worked for the design house for three decades and will forever be remembered as the inspiration and force behind both YSL and her own label Loulou de la Falaise.
