"Kathryn Bentley's new line of high-end costume jewelry sends us back in time to a more primitive era. Like ancient relics from a prehistoric age, Bentley's pieces are wrought from rudimentary elements such as oxidized brass and bone, wood, and antique African beads. With references to indigenous cultures and primordial forms, the Dream Collective line combines roughly hewn shapes and raw textures with natural, subdued tones for a primal, earthy delicacy. All Dream Collective pieces are handmade with integrity in the United States." - Beklina

Youthquake Coat by Prairie Underground
I love this 'Youthquake' coat by Prairie Underground, currently featured on Beklina. Beautifully hand-crafted out of 100% organic cotton oatmeal voile (layers) with an organic cotton oatmeal body, it can be worn either buttoned up or open. A limited production item and exceptionally poetic at that. I love how it almost seems to be recycled from an antique prairie skirt.
Diana Vreeland, you totally rock.
