Colette Davis
I love discovering new artist; especially brilliant ones whose work I can still afford! I also personally prefer figure and portrait paintings to landscape or still life paintings; and I prefer oil to watercolor. So of course I was quite excited to find the work of Colette Davis. See More

Pigeon Toe Ceramics

Ira Grant Totes
I love the simplicity of this 100% jute tote from Ira Grant. The dark brown leather straps, made from re-purposed scrap leather, paired with mustard and natural color block colored fabric gives this bag a uptown feel: See More

If you haven't seen the 2010 Spring/Summer collection from Gary Graham, you're in for a real treat. I love the sophisticated layering used in the Gary Graham looks as well as the muted palette which punctuated with the occasional pop of vivid red.  See More
 
Cydwoq
I've been a long time fan of Cydwoq's crunchy-chic, handmade shoes but I especially love their modern take on the popular Grecian-style sandal. The asymmetrical straps and flirty kitten heel give them that extra-bit of glamor - perfect when paired with a maxi sundress.  Read More
