Yesterday I went to a mall over here called Paço Alfândega. It’s a beautiful Shopping Center, with a breath taking view of the city. I like there, but I don’t go very often because it’s a place with exclusive stores that you don’t find in the other malls and most of them are too expensive =PPPPWell, I visited 2 stores that I like, to see the new collections. I liked some stuffs in the first one, but anything that would make me open my purse to spend lots. The second one, my favourite, I went to see the new collection of a new local designer: Isabel Villanova. I met her there and she is extremely nice =) Her jewellery are very different, she uses inox to make them! So alternative, modern and unusual! Just the way I like! And none of her pieces are exactly the same as the other one, some pieces she just makes one and that’s it, so you can add exclusivity in their collections!
I loved almost everything that was there, just a shame I didn’t have much money to spend. I have 4 pieces of jewellery from her + 1 that my friend left here at home and I can wear whenever I want. The ones I like the most are 2 bracelets that can be worn together of separately. Now the trend around here is wear as many bracelets you can in one arm or wear one bracelet on each arm. I like both ways, I love bracelets! And everytime I wear these, people ask me where did I get from =)
The salesgirl in the store told me recently some people from New York went over and fell in love with Isabel’s work and they are making orders of her pieces to sell over there. I don’t know where but next time I’ll ask the designer herself and leave the tip over there so people from NY go and see her work, because to people who loves jewellery, really worth it!
