A few selected photos from the South Shore in Kauai. We stayed in Poipu Beach which has more “swimmable” beaches. The winds were especially strong the week we were there so the surf and waves were ripping. We found a nice stretch where we were able to swim in. Pacific waters are colder than what us Florida folks are used to but once you get in, you acclimate fine. Plus I didn’t fly 14 hours to not get in the waters, you feel me? Jay was able to snorkel right off some of the beach waters and saw some amazing fish and sea life.

Pole bowls and açaí bowls are a thing in Hawaii. I had both numerous times but if you know me you know I love my tuna. I had so much poke I’m surprised I didn’t grow fins. It was so fresh anywhere you had it- even the supermarkets! Which if you plan on going, always hit the supermarkets for poke. We went to 2 and it was extremely tasty and fresh!

There are amazing trails and hikes. We didn’t go crazy hiking just kept it relatively easy. There is a nice easy trail in Shipwreck Beach that takes you along the rugged coast with those amazing cliff views. We did that one morning and it was pretty amazing. There is definitely more sun in the south so if you want to secure sun and surf time, stay in the south. We stayed at Koloa Landing and it was spectacular! The grounds were to die for and I kept walking around telling Jay “this is what our backyard needs to look like!” Clearly, he just laughed me off. A girl can dream! Tomorrow I’ll share more of the north shore- dramatic and divine!

If these pieces brought you here, hi! I love colors- and I love to create jewelry using said colors. When summer approaches I usually try to go big and bold- and these pieces were definitely it! All of these have sold. Including the lapis ones I didn’t even get a proper photo of. That is how fast these were made, claimed and shipped.

Some of these are traveling far and some stayed close by where I will smile every time I see them- and may potentially borrow. I didn’t even keep any for me to ensure my ladies got what they wanted. I work in small batches and I never repeat collections. I may at some point create a new design using similar elements and colors but rarely will you ever see the same piece twice. So if you scored one of these, you got an amazing piece you won’t find on too many necks out there.

Thanks for loving these. They needed a permanent spot on the grid! Enjoy these on all your summer travels. I know two of them are traveling far and wide this week!

When I say that your messages fuel and motivate me, I am not kidding. Every maker questions, doubts, and feels like throwing in the towel more times than you would know, so these messages are priceless. When I don’t know if it’s worth it, you remind me it is. When I’m not sure I have anything left in me, you remind me I do. When I’m not sure if Jay is right about my asymmetrical designs, you remind me he’s wrong and I’m right. That one alone is gold ladies!

Never think your words don’t matter- and I speak beyond jewelry speak now. As someone who loves words and quotes, they do. Long after something is said and you’ve forgotten, it’s indelibly written in someone’s mind and heart. Sometimes those words are recalled years later. So keep inspiring and encouraging people with your words. Thank you for doing that for me in so many more ways than you can possibly know. 🫶🏻

A collection made in 72 hours. The fastest I’ve ever made anything honestly. But when I saw these two strands at the gem show the synapses started firing. I knew what I wanted to do with these- big, bold, look at me pieces! And that is exactly what I designed. The turquoise and coral were the first ones I saw, the lapis came after.

When I got home I was beyond excited about these and I couldn’t wait to get to my creative mess. I started pulling things out and mixing gems and textures and you ladies went wild. The more your messages and texts came in, the more inspired I became. By Wednesday, every piece had been claimed. I didn’t have to photograph, launch, sing or dance, or perform in any way. You ladies showed UP! I will say this as a disclaimer for those that look and say man that doesn’t happen to me: this is an anomaly. This is NOT the norm. I have plenty of collections I make and they become sitting ducks. This is why my dilemma and gem shows is always the age old question: “To buy or not to buy?”

I made as many pieces as I could squeeze out of every single bead. These pieces are beyond gorgeous and I forwent keeping one I loved so my ladies could get theirs. They are meant to be worn- on vacation, to get your huevos 🥚, for a lunch date, for a pool date, for anything! For simply being alive- wear it ladies, please! And send me pics as well! My Vida ladies all want to see these and so do I! I didn’t get any styled photos of these so your task is to each send me a photo when you wear yours doing whatever makes your soul happy! Gracias for making mine happy! 🫶🏻

A symphony of gems 💎. You see a mess, I see infinite possibilities. The bigger the mess, the quieter my mind becomes and the more my hands work. I see colors, textures, and patterns slowly coming together to form a stunning piece. My own little work of art.

Get more behind the scenes of my process in my stories. This one is going to be EPIC! Unabashedly bold and bright jewels to get you noticed this summer!

Launch is still TBD but this one will be soon!🔜 Let me know how we are liking these so far….

“Hello Gorgeous!” are the exact words I muttered when I saw these coral. They were the first strands I found at the gem show and then the rest organically found me. What is coming for summer? BIG, BOLD, UNAPOLOGETIC jewelry. The ones people will stare at and ask you about- the conversation starters.

I don’t know how or what I’m going to mix up just yet. I need to cut into the strands and make a mess on my desk and let my hands do their thing. I want loud pieces! This summer is about getting noticed and that’s how I plan on designing.

Stay tuned in my stories since that’s where I share my creative process and the behind the scenes. I had a busy day today so I won’t get into these until tomorrow but they’re coming ladies…they are COMING!

A little look at the Larimar pieces how I’d wear them. I love layering pieces and these don’t need much but I always travel with my baroque pearl and genuine coral necklace - or chili 🌶️ pepper if that’s what you see. I love that piece because it’s easy to throw on with everything. The Larimar pieces are a great way to bring that resort chic vibe to your wardrobe. The cool blues evoke the essence of the Caribbean sea.

These are the only pieces I have and will have for the foreseeable future. I haven’t worked with this stone in 4 years so this was the second time using it. I have one left of each piece ladies and I promise you, it’s one that is extremely wearable. If you have any plans of travel this summer, pack this piece with some of your pearl pieces and you’ll be elegant and chic for your next adventure!

If this doesn’t get scooped up, I may just keep one for my summer escapades. 🌊🌅

Larimar- the unique gemstone only found in one place- La Republica Dominicana. The Dominican Republic. It’s a stone that evokes the beauty of the Caribbean ocean with its beautiful blues. It’s the perfect piece to add that effortless but elegant resort look to your style this summer. It’s also an easy stone to mix in with pearls for a trendier layered look. Pack up this pretty with a few pearly pieces and you’re ready for you next tropical vacation.

Larimar is a pricier stone and the bluer the stone the higher the quality and price. I haven’t found quality like this in years which is why I grabbed the 2 strands I saw at the show. These have no visible brown or black which I loved. It’s a piece that you will love and value for years to come. It’s time to celebrate yourself for a change!

I love the lyrics to this song. I feel we all need to celebrate ourselves every once in a while and sometimes we forget to. For all the challenges overcome, for the illnesses won and for the ones we’re still fighting, for the untold stories we’ve risen above, or for simply just being here and managing to smile through it all!

I think the part of this little thing I do that I love and appreciate the most is knowing so many of your stories. You ladies have shared so much of your life with me and a part of me feels honored that you do. You’ve become not just a customer with a number, but a friend with a face and story. The part of Vida Jewelry most don’t see is the connections made- the little familia built. I’m grateful for each and every one of you who is part of this familia- both near and far. For all of those who have chosen something I’ve made to celebrate themselves! Thank you. Gracias for letting me be a little part of your amazing story. 🩵
