We hope you all enjoy your long weekend and unofficial start to summer. We’ll be enjoying the sun (fingers crossed) and barbecuing. Have fun and we’ll be back on Tuesday!
Hailing from NYC, courtesy of ‘GoodWood’ Kerry and team, is Good Wood’s Summer 2011 collection - for the ladies and the fellas! And when it comes to wooden accessories, you want it - Good Wood‘s got it, yes, even tie clips. What’s more is that they specialize in custom orders, although, this collection is so dope I’d be satisfied with a just a few right pieces to add my already extensive jewelry spread.
My favorite pieces include the black lighting strike necklace (love!), swagg bracelets (must have!), and the compass wheel necklace. There’s no lack of color on these either. There is avast array of purples, reds, orange and even black! I won’t bore you with any more details, I’ll let you be the judge!
