Natural beauty

Nature’s treasures are creating the latest news flash in the world of style. Uber model endorser-jewelry designer Tweetie de Leon-Gonzalez is celebrating the return of organic simple with her jewelry line Ice Crystals for Myth. The designer’s beautiful raw pieces complement the new wave of minimalism that’s definitely making the biggest hit this coming season. Unique translations in irresistible earthy colors (the current palette of global fashion) and textures are having a moment in sophisticated and natural elegance. Hitting the style pendulum with high marks, the designer’s creative display of remarkable wooden conceptions fused with semiprecious stones and other local materials define her distinct modern artistry. The collection is a dramatic narrative of strong feminine appeal in a monochromatic palette with immense stellar components. Inspired from sharp and polished dressing, these alluring desirables complement fashion’s current vibe of subtle glamour. The evident dedication to and laborious handcrafting of the pieces create extraordinary style with a punch. These under-the-radar statements are reflective of the art of simplicity with panache that’s on the chic side.

For women who know the true meaning of the natural flow of things in style, the new way to wear these major must-haves involves real clothes in simple cuts, shapes and lines. Luxuries need not be all that shine all the time, these stylish steals are equally noteworthy. Embrace nature’s bounty in this moment of effortless style. Accentuate and update your personal look with these modern refinements that make a statement without saying too much.

Tweetie’s visionary artistry is a window of inspiration for many. What started as a hobby with trial-and-error projects has become a newfound career that’s been around in the retail world for eight years. Stepping up into greater opportunities and challenges, the design maverick has successfully gotten into the export business and continues to soar with her impressive creations. The designer is one among the handful who’s creating fashion with a conscience. This movement is an effort to inspire the industry to make use of our natural resources and transform them into works of wonder.
