Spring 2015 - My Top Picks

After weeks of prep and anticipation - okay, make that months - I am super pleased to share that our brand-new collection will be launching Monday! And while every piece I design receives special love and consideration, there are always jewels that become my personal favorites, and that find themselves in heavy rotation in my own accessories wardrobe.

Here are some of my personal, top picks from Spring '15:

Figure 8 Necklace in Turquoise - $78

Coco Bracelet in Howlite - $70

Cloud Nine Earrings - $78

Hydra Necklace - $95

Baroque Necklace - $82

Which piece from the upcoming collection do you have your eye on? 

I've been sharing sneak peeks over on our Instagram and Facebook pages, and you will have the chance to shop all of the new pieces through our website, come Monday! Finally, be sure to keep your eye on this space for an announcement about a special giveaway we are collaborating on, next week. Until then, have a fab weekend!

Our Fall 2014 Collection: My Top Picks

One of the perks of being a designer is getting to wear my pieces as soon as they're created. It's a bit of a teaser for customers when I'm wearing a design that catches their eye ("It's part of the upcoming collection..."), plus it allows me to see what jewels people react to, before they go to market. This said, while I'm always proud of all of the designs that make a collection's final cut (and not all of them do), there are some pieces that strike a special chord and that make their way into my personal collection of jewellery.

Here are some of my top picks from the new Fall '14 collection:

Gaia Necklace - $105

Daybreak Bracelet - $70

Alamo Necklace - Rose Gold - $78

Soleil Earrings - $48

Now I'd love to know: which piece from the new collection is your favorite?? You can leave a comment below sharing your own top picks. Plus, I'll be giving one lucky customer their favorite Fall '14 design at the end of this weekend, so be sure to keep your eye on our Facebook page tomorrow (September 6th) for details on how to enter!

Good to Go

Vancouver is a relatively casual city, but that's not to say a girl shouldn't look chic while she's on the go. 

 

This outfit is one I'd wear whether at brunch with my guy, or out for an afternoon of shopping with a girlfriend. A simple swap from these flat booties to a fun heel, and the cross-body bag for a sparkly clutch, would easily take this look from day to night. Of course, our Diamante Necklace & Rock Candy Bracelet add a  touch of bling that we can't resist. 

A Few Of My Favorite Things

My mom always says that she loves all of us kids the same, but I'm afraid when it comes to my own creations I do play favorites. These are currently some of personal favorite Keltie Leanne pieces.

1.) Maven Bracelet in Tundra Sapphire - I love the autumn colors of these pretty little gemstones and it's sleek design suits my simple tastes perfectly.

2.) Glamazon Earrings - These earrings are the first pair I ever designed and I still wear them at least a few days a week! Simple, yet striking, this shoulder grazing pair makes any outfit a little bit more chic.

3.) Eye of the Tiger Necklace - The tiger's eye gemstone on this necklace is so gorgeous and I love the contrast of it's golden colors with the beautiful blue sodalite gemstones adorning the gold-filled chain. Plus, the length of this piece is adjustable so I can wear it with various necklines.

4.) Luce Necklace - Labradorite is one of my favorite gemstones - I love the iridescent colors in this unique gem - so the effect of a whole bib of these little beauties is something I can't resist. 

5.) Olive Branch Earrings - The color of these olive jade gemstones is bold and unique and I love the way they shimmy and move from the hand-hammered horse shoe frames. 

6.) Cleo Bracelet - While I'm a sucker for all of our tiny faceted gemstone bracelets, the Cleo is currently my fav. A photograph really can't do justice to the sparkle and shimmer of these deep blue sodalite gemstones, and I also love the unique gold-filled chain. 

What about you? Is there a particular Keltie Leanne Designs piece that you love?
