The Best Fall Collection to Date

Executing the vision for each collection is an exhilarating journey. This fall collection centers around my love for nature. I see beauty and find art in the many textures, layers of complexity and raw elements found in nature. I meticulously crafted over 20 pieces with elements of live tree bark, preserved moss, jute ribbons harnessed with my signature sustainable materials. I hope that you appreciate the intentionality behind color selection such as khaki, army green, deep ochre and antique gold mimicking the dance of nuances found in nature in the fall season.

The KADOKÉLÉ Fall’ 24 is my best to date. It has been freeing to design jewelry pieces celebrating my greatest love. Discover texture infused into every jewelry piece for the woman who is aligned with nature and her divine power.

The ZILÉ COLLECTION got a few upgrades. These five new designs showcase the sleek curve in a whole new way with hand-painted textures in many sizes for everyday essentials or a few notches to your outfit.

 

The UPCYCLE COLLECTION has stretched my imaginations. Many pieces stand out on their own with intricate details, crafted with raw wooden disc, live tree bark, jute and rare vintage treasures.

Each piece is truly a piece of art!

My Love for Brooch Runs Deep

My love for brooches started as a child. My grandmother, Madame Louisa Charles Descadres had impeccable style. I am realizing how much she influenced my style the older I get.

A brooch is an understated accessory and yet powerful. Its versatility makes an easy piece to style. A brooch can enhance an outfit or be the star of the outfit. You can pin more than one brooch on your jacket to pump up the drama!

I styled both the Upcycle - Udo Brooch and Upcycle - Akou Brooch. How is that for drama?

A brooch can be a symbolic accessory. It can express your many loves and passions in life. For me, nature is the gift that keeps on giving. My personal collection includes: a silver leaf, a brass gold bird nest and a dainty butterfly with pearl.

My most treasured one is a crystal white flower with rhinestones gifted to me by grandmother. It was my something old on my wedding day. I also wore it to her celebration of life.

I was invited to be a part of the Black Entrepreneurs Series to speak to high-school students at the Bridgewater-Raynham Regional School in February. I designed the Starfish X Brooch and styled my outfit around it.
