GET TO KNOW: KATIE G. JEWELLERY


Taste in jewellery is always changing but if you found a timeless piece that can be worn and loved each day you probably keep it forever! I know that it takes a while to find something special and even i struggle to find accessories that i can wear day in and day out! 

Lucky me i met Katie, the incredibly talented designer behind Katie g. Jewellery, during Vienna Fashion Week where she got the opportunity to sell some of her epic pieces.  I was instantly impressed with her collection because all of her pieces happen occasionally  through accidents, as well as by experimenting and directly working with a material! Many of her art pieces are created instinctively and most frequently inspired directly from nature and some of them can be layered and combined in different ways and gives any look a new and unexpected twist! 

So a while ago Katie invited  me to browse through her collection at her studio (located in the Frankenberggasse 11 of Vienna's 4th district)  which also happens to be her showroom & shop as well! Before i started taking some pictures we had a nice little chat about the development of her jewellery  label and how everything started which is in my opinion always one of the most interesting parts of a brand! She graduated from Alchimia (School of contemporary jewellery  in Florence - love this city) a few years ago and has been creating jewellery ever since! As an artist & designer, Katie is committed to design unique wearable jewellery but she was never really interested by the idea of creating perfect shaped pieces and that's why EVERY single ring/bracelet/necklace etc. is different, has its own story and the material changes with time - definitely one of the most interesting aspects of wearing a piece of Katie g. Jewellery!  So of course i wanted to share a few impressions of her current collection - let me know what you think!

Mixed Pattern

Mixing prints is by far one of my favorite game when it comes to dressing "out of the box"! But over the last few weeks i had some sort of a gothic phase in my life (i know goth it's not only wearing dark clothes or wearing dark makeup) where i only saw myself wearing black ALL THE TIME! So every now and then i'm trying to break the habit before i end up picking out the same stuff as usual. That's why I also decided to go a little (rose)gold accessory crazy with the added ring, bracelet and necklace .... but hey i think it looked alright! Big thanks to Hristina from fleurdemode.com for taking these pictures!

On the Edge

Another post of mine that i had been meaning to get up for a little while! I took these photos with my wonderful friend Julie,  who actually suggested shooting at a different location and i can honestly say that it's definitely nice to have a break from those typical streets style pictures!

Wella Color.id

During Vienna Fashion Week i was lucky enough to be invited by Wella to see their newest and definitely revolutionary product Wella - Color ID and since i've been using Wella Illumina Color (which is designed to be more natural looking) i was even more excited about the whole event. So what's Color ID? For the first time ever before colors can bee applied side by side without running into each others and makes it unnecessary to use aluminium foil for color application (always hated that) + it gives a more natural and tonal look! The event itself was held at Wella Headquarter here in Vienna and i finally got the chance to show off my hairdressing skills because over the last few months i became more experimental and dyed my hair by myself! It seems to be very tricky to get a  uniquely designed multi-tonal color result but i guess this product makes everything a little bit more easier!

Versatility

Nothing beats a versatile jacket for fall and i know my choice seems to be limited when it comes to styling but i've been wearing this beautiful piece of clothing, which was by the way one of the best deals i've ever made during sale, almost everyday!   You have to know that I'm one of those people that get attatched to things that i really love and i tend to wear the heck out of every piece but that only shows that i've made the right decision! And of course ... I know...  I'm totally obsessed with this bag. Every day I tell myself to carry something different, but I'm loving it way too much!
