Customer profile

The other day I was taking photos of one of my dear friends that also happen to be a customer. She was wearing one of my vintage-reproduction rings and that gave me and idea: to make a little series of blog post about my customers, their likes and interest. I think this little fun project will help me understand more about them and get to know them better: It's always fascinating to see who's wearing something you created!

OK, here we go!

This is Maribel and she owns one of my Bubble Mod Bronze rings. Beside being one of the most kindest, good-hearted persons I know, Maribel has great sense of style and she's the person I always go to when I need advice about an outfit or where to shop. She says about what she looks when shopping for jewelry: "I love jewellery that tells a story: handmade pieces, souvenirs from a trip and vintage jewelry that was special for someone else before me".

"Contrasts are an important part of my personality: I consider myself delicate but brave, calm but passionate and I'm always looking for adventure. These same contrasts are what I look for in an outfit or jewelry: I like to mix and match, putting unexpected pieces together, both delicate and bold".


Dress: H&M
Boots: Urban Outfitters
Ring: The Angry Weather
Earrings: Vintage

Montreal shops recommended by Maribel: Unicorn, Blo, Atelier B & Arterie.

I hope you like this post! and if you are one of my customers and would like to be featured on the series, don't hesitate to let me know!

Awesome purchase of the Week: Falconwright






Toronto designer duo Sandi Falconer and Danielle Wright are the masterminds behind screen printed leather goods Falconwright. I fell in love with their work a couple years ago when they were part of the vendor line-up at Puces POP here in Montreal and later discovered that Sandi is also the illustrator of Deadweight, an absolute fave shop on Etsy ( I once got the Mystery pack and it was like opening a Christmas present!) and Danielle is an amazing jeweller: this girls are just super creative and awesome.

All this to tell you I recently purchased one of their leather goods, a beautiful emerald green clutch with a wonderful eye pattern: in love! The leather is so soft, the colors so bright and the pattern is fantastic. If you haven't check their products yet, I recommend you to click here, take a look and enjoy!
