Reyes Pinafore Bubble Jumper
Cute, yes. But beware as the bubble shape will accentuate wide hips!

Da Nang Vest
The poufy vest is the perfect transition piece to take you from Summer to Autumn to Winter. Wear it with a sheer tee (as shown) when the good weather starts fade, and layer it over a thick knit when the snow starts to fall.

Sheena Handbag at Lucia Bella
Designer Julie Sherwood’s Sheena handbag is named after the Queen of the Jungle. Quite appropriate, given the handbag’s combination of soft body ruching, a delicately braided handle with bold hardware, and strong earth tone, animal print leathers.
Versatile as it is exotic, the Sheena handbag goes from day to night, accompanying both casual and dressy looks. To best show off the bag’s styling details, wear the Sheena bag with a contrasting color.
Fun fact about Julie? She loves to drive her vintage Ford car, which dates back to 1950!

Astrantia Necklace
Designer Gwendolyn Davis was inspired by nature and deco-era Art Nouveau to create her gorgeous Astrantia necklace, constructed out of mother of pearl petals from pre-war Japan. "As with everything I do creatively, my best teacher was nature. She teaches you the value of economy, proportion and exuberance all at once. The flower name â€Astrantia†comes from the Greek for Star, but I was thinking of a Gardenia when I made it."
Gwendolyn recommends pairing the delicate necklace with a Grecian-inspired top or dress with a plunging neckline and an empire waist. She would also pair the necklace with her bamboo bangles set with Swarovski crystals and some simple dangly vintage chain earrings.
Fun fact about Gwendolyn? She has a phobia for people in big, goofy costumes, likely stemming from a previous job as a costumer at Universal Studios.
