Summer Styles with rue de emily bijoux....


Hello Summer! I have missed you!! My favorite time of year is upon us!! I am inspired by Summer...in so many ways! rue de emily bijoux is BACK with a number of new designs for the Summer of 2017!



I have made a 100+ unique chokers with beads and tokens from Africa, Israel and Thailand...everything will be loaded on www.ruedeemilybijoux.com in the coming month...



Here are a few of my creations....chokers, long necklaces, short beaded necklaces, a wide variety of sexy Summer styles...


I love doing adjustable pendants on leather strings that you can wear long or short...they are easily adjustable...


My latest obsession are handmade Mochila Bags... I absolutely love the artistry, the heritage and the comfort and Summer vibe of these one of a kind hand knitted bags...they are so FAB...and they can be washed easily too... I have over 20 incredible styles for sale...contact me asap if you are interested...to make sure you can get the style you want...they are one of a kind!






The Wayuu are known as the people of the sun, sand, and wind. They are located in the arid Guajira Peninsula in northern Colombia. 
They survived the Spanish Conquest and had many fights and wars with the Spaniards in the 1700′s. Today, there is thought to be around 140,000 – 150,000 Wayuu people living in Colombia, with another almost 300,000 living across the border in Venezuela. - See more at: http://bohobeachboutique.com/wayuu-tribe/#sthash.3gPEXBa8.dpuf

The women of the Wayuu tribe have been hand weaving these bags for generations. Every single bag is different and unique, with intricate tribal designs and colors. Many of the designs that are woven into each bag represent the natural elements that surround the Wayuu, and what their culture revolves around, such as: animals, the sun, plants, stars. It takes these women 10-15 days to complete each bag; they are a labor of love...
10% of all the profits from sales go back to the tribe to help these women sustain their Art....


Please contact me at ruedeemily@gmail.com if you are interested in any of these styles...they cost between $220-$265.



I have over 100 styles of Summer chokers as well...prices range from $10 to $48. I will be at the Style Shack this Thursday June 8th with a great selection of rue de emily bijoux items...


I am all about the fringe.... these reversible chokers come in blue, black and white...$20.




I haven't forgotten the guys either....new beaded masculine short beaded chokers for guys... great for the beach! $38.00 each...

BOHO meets SOHO....


I have been one busy lady lately...which is why I have been radio silent... here on my "street".. this is the scoop....in every free moment I have been producing, organizing, designing, styling, scoring, directing, media relating, etc...for a very exciting charity event....coming this Thursday October 13th to the Style Shack in Highland Park...


Highland Park High School's Theatre Department is one of the best high school theatre training programs in the country...led by a few of the most dedicated and passionate teachers...the kind we all admire...and the productions they create are fabulous...and it is hard to believe that they come out of a high school!

Recently the Board of Education approved the building of the "shell" of a new black box theatre which provides the opportunity to configure productions in all kinds of unique ways...and once it is  outfitted with all the latest technology, lighting, materials, etc. it will be a fantastic educational and performance space for future generations...however the cost for outfitting it has to come from the community and the price tag is steep...$900,000...gulp!


So that is where I come in! My girlfriends at Style Shack suggested we do a fashion show with my ruedeemily bijoux new line of chokers and necklaces and their cool jewelry...We decided the Black Box Theatre fund was a great reason to get the creative juices flowing!


 We invited the high end fashion consignment clothing boutique Luxury Garage Sale too and Blue Mercury is doing the make-up for all the high school student models!  Floral Gardens is even helping with some "boho florals"!



 We wanted to involve the community in a great cause to support the high school. We have faculty and students from the theatre department helping with everything as well! Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for students. They can be purchased in the Style Shack or get tickets online here. All ticket proceeds and a signficant percentage of all sales from all participating vendors will benefit the Black Box Theatre Fund.  You can also donate at www.completethebox.org Seating is limited so get your tickets ASAP!


I have designed over 400 unique suede, leather, ostrich, snake, woven, and lace chokers for this event...a sample of the collection is now on display at Style Shack with some of my other necklaces...but you can only begin to purchase them at the charity event..prices range from $30-$75. Many of my pieces and new jewelry from Style Shack will be featured in the fashion show....


a preview....

and now for a little visual photo "fashion show" of the chokers and necklaces from ruedeemily bijoux...




feel free to look and try on...hard to pick a favorite... 











 

 



I even had my son get into a picture...during a weekend photo shoot a few weeks ago...someday he'll thank me...when he gets over the embarrassment...lol...





Rachel from Luxury Garage Sale and I have been putting high style looks together for the last few days...you won't be disappointed...some faboo fashion ladies!! Rehearsals are underway with some beautiful models..inside and out...who are giving their time and runway flair!

 
 It is all coming together now for a great cause...it will be a fun fashion filled evening with great music in a great atmosphere...we are also auctioning the cool "BOHO meets SOHO" props that I created for the event...looking forward to seeing you locals there...

XO Emily
