Isla’s Birth Gift: Pearls

For the month leading up to Isla’s birth, Sasha asked me what I wanted for a ‘push present.’ I thought the idea of gifting your wife for delivering your child seemed kind of bizarre – it’s not like men have the option! I told him time and time again (semi-jokingly) that I wanted this elephant from Baby & Child. He refused.

After Isla was born (and the chaos died down), Sasha handed me a small jewelry box and explained that this gift was to commemorate this special moment (not a ‘thank you’). I opened the box and started crying – my first set of pearl earrings. Isla was born on June 4, and her birthstone is pearl. I love them so much and have literally worn them every day since she was born (13 to be exact).

Priya Launches Zama Collection

Priya_ZamaThere are few people in life I’m more inspired by than my good (not to mention, ridiculously gorgeous) friend, Joy Kennedy. Three years ago, she launched Priya, an accessories line that is committed to fair trade luxury and employing groups of underprivileged artisans. Since 2011, Priya has worked with groups of human trafficking victims, special needs artisans and impoverished women in Nicaragua. Sold yet? Yes, the company is amazing. The best part is that the products are absolutely flawless. I love the purses so much from the original collection, but two weeks ago, Joy launched the Zama Collection, the first contemporary jewelry collection handmade by artisans in Jaipur, India. It’s unbelievable to see these pieces after sifting through the product sketches at Zoe’s Kitchen over lunch a year ago.

Joy graciously gifted me one of my favorite pieces for my birthday last month – the Square Ring in Blue. I literally get compliments from people every single time I wear it. I’m obsessed! The pieces are crafted with the highest quality materials. You’ll love them as soon as you put them on. I’ve compiled a collage of my favorite Zama pieces above. Shop the collection (top left to bottom right):

The Kendra Scott Ailee Bracelet

Kendra_Scott_Spring_2014

One of the most exciting announcements I’ve ever made – there is a Kendra Scott bracelet named after me! In the Spring 2014 Atlantic Collection (which is for sale starting on Wednesday, Jan. 22!), you can find the Ailee Link Bracelet (pictured above). One of my best friends, Sophee, is a Merchandise Lead at Kendra Scott (I am green with envy), and she broke the news to me when I went to stay with her in Austin for my bachelorette weekend. I seriously have been dying to see it in person, and this weekend, we got to see each other and she gave me two as an early birthday present. I am obsessed! The Atlantic collection is my favorite to-date, and I’ve picked out some of the best pieces (according to moi). Have you scoped out the new line yet? If not, click here to see the Kendra Scott Atlantic pinboard.
