Tactual Bliss

Bijouxbead's Jewels

Delicate as it may seem, Darlene Martin's works are acclaimed as 'tactile'.  Capable of being touched, in layman's term.  Patrons attest they experience felicity when wearing these opulent creations from Canada.

If you're thinking hers is just another piece of jewelry to add in your chock-full collection, think again.  Every ensemble is one-of -a-kind and named individually.  

Today, I vote for the 'Artist's Brush'.

High-Fab for Mother Nature

Sustainable Clothing

Environmentally-friendly.  It's the 21st century's new black.  

We see, read and hear about it.  But what does being 'eco-friendly' actually entails?  The yardstick is clear and simple.  It has to have minimal or absolutely no harmful impact on our environment.  

Cloud9's handmade couture is true to the essence of earthly kindness.   Isn't it so fitting that her signature design is that of an angel's wings?  

I bet mother nature is giving her the high-fives.

Lotus Tee

Divine Comfort

Lotus, a symbol of purity.  Since ancient times, it has been a divine symbol in many eastern traditions.  Everything about is edible and usable. 

Dried flower heads are widely sought for decorative purposes, and various parts of it is used for herbal medicines.  Petals are used as garnish, leaves as food wraps, stems dried as tea and roots as soup ingredients (must be thoroughly cooked, please don't eat it raw). 

One of nature's heavenly handiwork indeed, and Rekha's design application is undeniably divine.

The Summer Line

Sizzling Stripes

Stripes, an icon of interminable style.  It's timeless look has survived the latest fad's short-lived fame.  For her spring and summer collection, Erika Hendrix's portrayal of these celebrated streaks takes us beyond the usual nautical theme.  

None of the assuming fitted tops, trousers and shorts.  Loose, airy, yet sensual clothing is what you'll see.  Casual, comfy and trendy are the marks of this self-made designer.

Hendrix's design ingenuity is unequivocally top of the line.
