THE BRANDS
Emily & Ashley | Jewelry
Growing up, sisters Emily and Ashley Green spent their childhood beading bracelets around the kitchen table. Little did they know that the hobby would eventually turn into a career with the launch of Emily & Ashley, a jewelry line inspired by their grandmother and the glamour of the 1940s. "Our philosophy is to create fine jewelry that expresses the essence of the woman who wears it," they explain. "Classic keepsake pieces that each woman can call her own, then pass on to the next generation."
Laura Stephanie | Jewelry
DC-based designer Laura Stephanie's first love was dance, which she uses to fuel her fine jewelry creations at her eponymous label: slim, ultra-feminine bangles, cascading gemstone earrings and gossamer lariat-like necklaces. "My wish for those wearing one of my designs," she says, "is a harmonious connection between mind, body and the piece."
Loquet London | Jewelry
There's a dynamic duo behind Loquet London: author, columnist and environmentalist Sheherazade Goldsmith and photographer, model and British Vogue contributing editor Laura Bailey. Together these multi-hyphenate Brits have reimagined the keepsake locket for modern times while holding themselves to the highest sustainable standards. "We believe that beauty and luxury should not come at the price of compromised ethics," they note.
Loren Hope | Jewelry
If you love color, then Loren Hope is for you. Founded by North Carolina native Loren Barham, the collection marries vintage inspirations with a decidedly modern palette—think estate-style drop earrings in wild pops of colors or the classic tennis bracelet reimagined in fun ombré shades. Prefer something even more playful? Check out her butterfly series. "The only better inspiration than nature itself," she writes, "is nature observed through the eyes of the child-hearted."
Powder Puff | Accessories
Founder Jillian Moorhead's CV speaks for itself. The FIT graduate has worked everywhere from Chanel to Ralph Lauren. In 2015, after relocating from New York City to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, she combined those years of industry experience with her new cold-weather environs and launched Powder Puff, an eco-conscious line of winter accessories, including Moorhead's popular quilted neck warmers.
Rachel Cagner | Jewelry
Remember the friendship bracelets from your childhood? Or the paper clips you'd string together into a necklace? Rachel Cagner's collection reworks that nostalgia in gold, crystals and enamel—without losing any of the fun or whimsy. Also charming: her pendant pieces, which feature hearts, happy faces, peace signs, "soda caps," and the evil eye.

Sh*t That I Knit! | Accessories
Sh*t That I Knit! is an irreverent take on all the stuff you can stitch and purl together, from pom-pom beanies to adorable ribbed dog sweaters. The business began as a simple knitting blog for founder Christina Fagan, then with the power of Instagram and Kickstarter, blew up into a million-dollar business. Today, in addition to headquarters in Boston, Fagan employees a team of 170 artisans in Lima, Peru.
