'Nectar' Spiritile

$163.00

'Nectar' Spiritile - "Life is the flower for which love is the honey." - Victor Hugo

Artist Statement:

Spring parallels so well with the concept of love. You've spent so many months in this dearth of winter, cold, feeling the wind blow through the bare trees and wondering when life will spring anew. With the oncoming bloom, warmth flows through and you establish that new connection, quickly growing a fragile sense of infatuation, afraid that with one strong storm the felicitous blossoms could be blown away. But warmth carries on. The rush of gathering sun carries your joyous feeling forward, propelling you into creating that honey with a smile and a lightness of heart as you look upon the face of your newfound love. And together, you spring forward into summer.

'Timeless' Spiritile

$163.00

'Timeless' Spiritile is great for any woman, regardless of age.

"You can be gorgeous at thirty, charming at forty, and irresistible for the rest of your life." - Coco Chanel 

Artist Statement

Style arbiter Gabrielle Chanel, or Coco, made the world more beautiful with her iconic fashion designs. Born into poverty, she lost her mother as a young child and was sent to live in an orphanage. Committed to self-invention, she famously said, "My life didn't please me, so I created my life." Her timeless aesthetic that "luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury" revolutionized fashion with her iconic suits and the simple elegance of the "Little Black Dress." This is a fashionable reminder that no matter what age we are, we are beautiful and therefore, timeless.
