Opening Ceremony + Pendelton Wool = LOVE!

Friday, October 30th, 2009

The cutest jackets ever. I love Pendelton wool, I grew up on flannels during the grunge era and Portland is Seattle’s sister city, the blankets are cool and very earthy, but this collection that Opening Ceremony created is epic. I love the use of Indian geometric patterns and the tight weave of the fabric. The styles and silhouettes combined with the weave and colors are incredible. I am going to have to invest in one of these coats, they just make me smile!

Preparing for the desert or entering the novel DUNE… these knee high wool boots and layers of knits are fit for entering the elements of winter.

I have created some incredible layering necklaces that are great for heavy knits and the thick skins that are needed in the winter. These pieces will be online soon, but here is a sneak peak of what jewelry to expect… all local, all hand crafted in Seattle.

Eggs that look like actual eggs? So incredibly cool and unique. I love the use of materials, light bulbs, carbon, filament… incredibly creative. Necklaces that are wearable art from Surface Magazine by Sergey Jivetin at Ornamentum Gallery.
