Making A Satement

While looking for a little something beyond the "norm," I happened upon some pieces that I I find unusual, and intriguing. I'm especially taken with KD2024's "body vest" (#20). Made from nappa leather and python, it slips over the body, and is so Versatile in it's styling, that it would jazz up many a look, from a simple tank to a strapless dress.

"A Cuckoo Moment"

Bangles, manchettes and cuffs to wear one on top of the other as Lia Fallschessel, the of the original German brand, suggests.












The imaginative jewels and accessories featuring leathers of rare beauty by the brand a cuckoo moment are designed by Lia Fallschessel to complete one's look in a precious and original way. Bangles in python or ostrich (two of the brand's favorite materials), enriched with sapphires and topazes in the same shades or in contrasting colors are alluring and captivating.



While on one hand they seem to want to emulate the style of the icons of the 1970s who loved to capture the attention with the "tinkling" of their gestures, on the other hand, they stand out for their minimalist and modern design that is bold and extravagant. These pieces serve as that truly unforgettable detail that pulls an outfit together.
