Spring Collection II : GLOBAL RHYTHMS

The style is … high energy – bright saturated color blocks – shiny fabrics and metallics – lightweight silks and natural textiles – bold and form fitting

Two new colors - Tahiti and The Deep – are inspired by the vibrant colors of the South Pacific … feel the sand between your toes, the sun on your skin (wear sunscreen and soak up some Vitamin D!) … with this season’s color-blocked fashions, accessorize with a divine necklace like Maggie or Sarah, plus a Trinity bracelet in these sizzling shades.

KATYA’s Shadows and Light collection for spring is like a hand-tinted photograph - monochromatic silhouettes softly painted with muted hues inspired by soft linen, the palest roses, glistening pearls … sipping Lady Earl Grey on a breezy veranda, lunch with the girls, a stroll in the park … the sweet scent of spring air touched by rain … the blush of love, hand in hand, dancing on air … slip into the season’s silky dresses, adorned with our Opera necklace with a single Blush bead, or Serena earrings in Astral White… simple, unfussy, sweet and softly glowing.

KATYA Spring Collection 2011

April showers bring May flowers … and as we blossom into springtime, the air warms and colors begin to brighten, like tender flower buds that open slowly with sun’s caress to reveal their inner beauty … colors that stir spring awakening in our hearts and souls, inspired by earth and sea, by shadow and light, by exotic faraway places, by our own deepest desires.

KATYA’s spring and summer collection is inspired by all of these things, and more! Each collection - there are two for each season – has been personally created by Katya Wittenstein, a truly inspired artist and designer whose generous and creative spirit is imbued in each exquisitely styled and hand-crafted piece. 

You will surely find a bit of your own spirit in the colors and styles she has created for these collections … a bit of sky to brighten your day, a splash of sea to refresh, the blush of love, bright juicy colors for fun and whimsy … all combined with the sparkle and magnetism of sterling silver … isn’t it amazing how the dangle of an earring, the twist of a necklace, the jingle jangle of bracelets can make a girl feel oh so alive!
