New cuties in the shop!

I posted a few, new cuties in the shop this week.  Tiny new necklaces and a few, new bracelets.  I also spent a few hours organizing all of my supplies.  It's incredible how a messy work zone hinders creativity.  Once I had everything organized, I was amazed how much easier it was to feel inspired...
Deep, I know.


You can find all the new goodies in my shop today: www.rasbarrijewelry.etsy.com

A few new things will start popping up in packages this week...I received my new business cards in the mail which includes a special discount on your next order - excited to start shipping with an entirely new look.

Enjoy your Monday

It took me a while...

...but I've found it.  My soul mate.  As in my wardrobe, soul-mate.   I'll get to that later (but no silly, not the British/Canadian girl band from the early 90's ;)  Why has the world neglected me of such beautiful fashion for so long?  

I spent last weekend in Las Vegas for work and play.  I did a little shopping.  How one becomes inspired after observing over 3 million micro mini's is beyond me.  I digress....  I bought my first piece of Helmet Lang without experiencing an iota of regret, enjoyed warmth, great company and collected a ton of new memories, one of which singing Motown covers in a taxi cab (you know who you are)  A coworker of mine took me to a place where he said, "I know of a store in Vegas, that is totally you."
I'm addicted. 

Here are a few of my favorite pieces:


Have a great weekend!

Celeb Style....

Is there any one celeb you wish you could clone, style-wise? Mine is Ashley Olsen.  Forget the whole Full House/ awkward pursed lip pose thing, her sense of style is effortless, edgy, chic and romantic.  Getting my evening dose of fashion on.  Enjoy ;)

An exciting debut...and sunny Florida.

I'm currently 4k miles from home, spending time with my family in sunny Florida.  I'm spending a lot of "ommm" moments with the beach and taking in the warm weather and luke warm sea water before I depart back home in a few days.  I've been waking up to watch the sunrise each morning because right now, life is too short not to enjoy such a beautiful thing.



I've recently set up shop with a really exciting company called Zaarly, based out of San Francisco.  They have a really intriguing business model where they connect local merchants with products and services to other local folks.  I think of it as a hybrid Task Rabbit/Etsy.  They contacted me, sent a photographer to my house and took beautiful photos of my line.  You can check out my Zaarly shop here:  www.zaarly.com/rasbarri

Some of my favorite shots from the shoot.




Enjoy!
