Mood Board: Big Sur Green

The Cass Clutch in Big Sur Green conjures up images of the Northern California coast.  Its cypress and bay laurel trees weathering crisp ocean breezes were the inspiration for the beautiful shade of green.  Whether you're working poolside, toes deep in sand or out and about in a quaint little town, the Cass Clutch is destined to be your "go to" handbag.

Gift Giving With A Purpose: Girls On Fire

This Thursday (the 10th at 7:30pm) at Brushstrokes Studios in Berkeley, a number of local artisans and vendors will be selling their wares to help raise money for Girls On Fire.  This organization empowers Kenyan women, many of whom have been victims of gender violence and dire poverty.  Through leadership camps, young women and girls are given the opportunity to travel, learn about nutrition and exercise, work as a team and, most importantly, understand and value their own self worth. I'm looking forward to this event and hope you can attend too.  It's the perfect opportunity to holiday shop with a worthwhile purpose.  

Here are few of the participating vendors:  Erica Tanov, Ginger Craftan, Ash Dry Goods, Good On Paper and Carrie Saxl.
