The items in my shop are all handmade (embroidered, stitched, dyed) except for sewing the seams and zippers and pockets into bags and garments (machine sewn).

I bring together the East and West, the old and new through my unique curated items. Vintage pieces, elegant designs and shapes, soft and buttery textures and brilliant colors.

I am dedicated to delivering one-of-a-kind pieces that are made and tailored to last. I want to bring more joy and color into the world and into your life.

More about me...

I grew up in a small town in Midwestern United States. For most of my youth, I wore baggy jeans and bland colors. I didn't celebrate life or myself through the clothes that I wore. I wanted to hide and blend in.

Fast forward to 1999 when I moved to California and found myself surrounded by artists and visionaries and very colorful bright people. My fashion sense started to awaken and slowly celebration through adornment in my life began.

Then, world travel. France, Spain, Italy, India, Greece and more brought so much color and texture and art and design into my consciousness. I not only began to celebrate life through what I wore, but I became incredibly inspired by fashion and making bold statement through adornment.

I have connected with and been inspired by designers and artists from all over the world. I have found a new passion in fashion. My design and artistic sense are heavily influenced by India aesthetic. I work closely with small shop owners, tailors and artisans in local markets of Rajasthan and beyond.

It brings me great joy to find materials, fabrics, textiles on my travels and create something with them. The icing on the cake is seeing my friends, clients and customers light up when they see one of my items. I often hear words like "This is mine. It has always been mine. How did you know?"
