- "Outerwear is a focal point when it's chilly" says stylist Emily Current. So add a colorful coat on top of a monochromatic outfit. The Aurora Necklace made from bombona and acai seeds gives the finishing touch!
Don't let the winter blues get your style down! I invite you to embrace color in
your winter wardrobe.
Have a blessed day! Oh, but before you go, be sure to leave me a comment letting me know which look you like the best?
P.S.: Love, love this quote from Jenna Lyons:
" It only takes one colorful item to make a grey day beautiful, or a bland outfit sunny."

My Winter Getaway
My first visit to my birthplace in 10 years was full of different emotions, beautiful memories and, of course, lots of colors!
Although it was a short trip, ( only 5 days!) I enjoyed every moment with my family and dear friends. I visited my parents' house which is today a beautifully restored colonial Colombian home in the heart of Cartagena's historic walled center, featuring six (6) spacious, well-kept guest rooms, within walking distance of old town landmarks, attractions and nightlife. And it is named after my mother, Carmen.

I was amazed to see the beautiful and striking color combinations of the colonial houses!
"It’s hard to remember, on those cold days when you pile on your heavy coat and scarf, that there are places on the planet where the sun rarely stops shining. The Colombian city of Cartagena has skies so blue and cloudless that they look permanently polarised. It’s a fine spot for a winter-dodging getaway..." ~ Lonely Planet
Cartagena, a city full of romance and colonial legends, captivates visitors with its cobbled alleys, enormous balconies draped in bougainvillea and horse-drawn carriages.
Located on the northern coast of Colombia on the Caribbean Sea, Cartagena was once a haven for the freed African slaves of Central and South America, making the city an ethnic melting pot of Latino, African and Caribbean cultures. Just as dramatic is the city’s history as a Spanish colony defending itself against pirate attacks, earning it the nickname “Cartagena, la Heroica.” ~ The Savvy Explorer
My trip was a great source of inspiration, these earrings are the proof!! They will be available very soon on our site.
Hot weather calls for cold coconut water!
Cartagena is a well preserved beauty lying within an impressive 13km of centuries-old colonial stonewalls.
You can find beautiful, warm colors everywhere.
Las Palenqueras,” or street fruit vendors, are extremely friendly and often happy to pose for photos!
I love this city. I am drawn to the romance Cartagena inspires. And I can't get enough of these beautiful colors that we are seeing here. So, what do you think? Is Cartagena on your bucket list?
Have a blessed day!

Wonders of the Sea
"The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonders forever." ~ Jacques Cousteau

| White Sea charm bracelet |
There's something about the sea that has always captivated me, and I was lucky enough to live by the sea for many years. I really enjoyed those days and I still do when I go to the beach. Everything I know about the sea I learned it from Jacques Cousteau' s documentaries, they were my favorites ...
 |
| White Sea tagua charm bracelet |
I was amazed to see the beauty of the sea life, from the largest creatures, the blue whales, whose beautiful songs travel thousands of miles under the ocean, to the tiny and fragile sea horses. Curiously, males are the ones that get pregnant and deliver their offspring!
Not only the sky has stars ... the sea offers a variety of star-shaped animals (starfish) in a variety of colors and sizes! Finally, the survival instinct of the baby sea turtles is really amazing. Watching them struggle out of the nest and make their way to the water is an emotional experience! They have to face everything from driftwood and footprints to crabs and predators. This is so inspiring!
Our White Sea charm bracelet is definitely a show-stopper and will ensure you get plenty of compliments!
