Storytelling is part of being human. You can’t really separate it. We are all telling stories, even when we think we are not. Wearing jewelry is one of the many ways. By now most of you know that a while back we embarked on a new project, a Silver and Gold jewelry line called R I W A Y A. If you’ve missed it, here’s a post that sums it up and you can follow the brand’s Instagram account @storiesworn for the latest updates. Continue reading “MZA’ART EXHIBITION”
Some trends are so pretty you feel they were made for Instagram. Pearl-embellished jeans seem to be one of them. It’s been a while since we put our skinny jeans to rest and have dutifully embraced wide leg pants, flares, and high-waist jeans but adding something so small and delicate as pearls definitely doubles the outfit glam. These Zara pants are probably one of their bestseller items this season, and it’s easy to see why. The pearls seem to barely be touching the denim, giving off a fairy vibe.

Nothing says < Good style doesn’t have to be complicated> like a bell sleeve top, its movement automatically sends off a cool signal. No need for a splash of color or print, the mere presence of a few extra inches of textile at the end of a sleeve can and go a long way, especially when leather is involved. Continue reading “Outfit Bells”
When you truly love accessories, the likelihood of finding one single piece that defines you is kind of low. You befriend rings, earrings, shoes, and you know that your relationship will last as long as the piece itself and at times it will transcend its life as you will still keep it in your closet, despite being tarnished, broken or out of trend, just for old times’ sake.

While you read this, take a look at your hands for a second. Grab the earrings you are wearing or touch the necklace dangling from your neck. You are touching stories, stories only you can tell. It starts from the moment you buy or receive each piece and it never quite ends, because anecdotes and memories keep on adding up and shaping the tale as you wear it day after day.This exact notion combined with our passion for jewelry (we have been making it for over 9 years) and the stories we share here (when we travel and when we stay), gave way to R I W A Y A.

Shoes send out a message and the beauty of its content is that it can be changed everyday depending on which pair you decide to wear. They are a less committed choice than a hair cut but equally important as they stand as the foundation of your image, literally. They take you places, literally. And we literally chase for that kill or limited edition. It’s just emotionally stimulating. Continue reading “Sleek and Shoes”
When the brain half rejects all the images going through your eyes but is still able to spot and engrave deep in your memory a ring worn by a random stranger as she walks past you in Starbucks, you know you have an obsession. It is a fixation to which you have dedicated yourself for so long, you no longer remember how it began. Continue reading “House of Rings”
Her fashion sense is the visual equivalent of a diet that cuts out junk food and lives on the excess of pineapples. She twists and turns trends of today, yesterday and a few decades back to create her very own style. You just have to check out her blog to see that if it’s predictable, she won’t wear it. Continue reading “Behind the Lens”
For better or worse, the well of ambition never dries up. The feeling when you see something that is destined to be yours is as beautiful as the feeling when you finally have it. We declare that this is the most beautiful dress, ring, shoes or bag that we will ever own but then time, new seasons and gifted designers make sure we break our promise so hastily that we genuinely forget we made one. Continue reading “Temporary Promises”
