LOCAL SPOT: a. ell design & atelier - now carrying Ivy & Co.!

I am so excited to announce that Ivy & Co. head bands, boho wraps and clothes pins are now sold in a. ell designs & atelier! The shop is located on Kauai in Old Town Kapaa (with a new store opening soon in Portland!) I've known the owner for about 7 years through our businesses (her store, my dance classes), so I was so excited when everything lined up for me to put my products in her shop.

This is the display Kit & I created. My vision, his drilling, then he painted it, (without my permission, and I about had a cow), but it turned out great. You know me, I was going to paint it black! Regardless, it turned out awesome. It's a wooden picture frame and a wooden box I found at the Habitat Restore.

Some close ups of the head bands and bohos that went to a. ell designs & atelier.

For starters, they carry a.ell designs (aloha shirt on the left, and the polka dot shirts in the middle). 

They have fun hats. The one on the right is part of the a.ell designs collection. (Buy it here!)

They carry some great bags from local designers: Clutch and Denise Tjarks.
I love my Clutch coin purse!

Bikinis by Kauai designer Kaikini and Barcelona-based Desigual.

I love the raw edge on these Kopa Kauai soaps. Sandalwood, Lavender, Lychee, Papaya - they smell wonderful! 

Since I'm obsessed with tea towels right now, I think these Cultivate Hawaii tea towels are perfection. Made with 100% organic cotton!

Their extensive jewelry display contains designs by:

Caitlin Ross Odom

Malacologie

Fine Jewelry by Angelina

Art work by Heather Brown is all over the shop.

I love this quote from the a. ell website:

"Enjoy Island wear with a classic flair, fabrics that are environmentally sensitive, and clothing designs that not only look “hot” but are cool, comfortable and fun to wear.  High quality, naturally eco-friendly, exquisite fabrics and guaranteed workmanship are hallmarks of an a. ell design. Specializing in casual island wear for men, women and children, beach style wedding dresses and home decor."

The next time you pass through Kapaa or Portland, hit up a. ell design & atelier.
