Happy Hump Day!




Did you know? 

In China, purple represents spiritual awareness, physical and mental healing, strength and 

abundance. A red purple  symbolizes luck and fame. 

The Chinese word for purple, zi, is connected with the North Star, Polaris, or zi Wei in 

Chinese.


In Japan, purple is the color of privilege and wealth, the color associated with the Japanese

 aristocracy. The word for purple is murasaki, which is also the name of the wisteria flower.


In Europe and America, purple is the color most associated with individualism.

Well, there you have it! At LLB we do love purple... among all the other wonderful colors 

out there. 


Ciao!

Coming soon! Whitley Designs Jewelry




I'm a fanatic about unusual beautiful jewelry. And I found it again!

Whitley Designs is a team of two sisters, based in San Francisco but with ties to beautiful Charlottesville, where Whitney lived for a few years.

Whitney, a practicing attorney, draws inspiration from her daily life - creating refined, classic pieces. Hayley, a free-spirited artist, pushes the designs in a stylish, innovative, and forward thinking direction. Ultimately, they have created a versatile array of jewelry, with pieces that layer beautifully and transition easily from day to night. Just as "WHITLEYdesigns" is a hybrid of their names, Whitley jewelry reflects the confluence of two unique design aesthetics into one cohesive and timeless collection.

I think this collection complements Suzanne's pieces really well and will combine beautifully!

The pieces should arrive within the next few weeks, so stay tuned!
