I spent last week in one of my favorite places to escape to - St. Barths. It was a week full of relaxation & fun. Here are my top 10 things to do and places to go!
1. Drink rosé - it’s a national pastime!
2. Stay at Isle de France and rent a Moke - get set to sharpen your driving skills and witness breathtaking views at every turn.
Our new “Gustavia” Tote atop a Moke.
3. Go shopping in Gustavia - Delfina, Clic Bookstore, & no name small stores that carry French and European goods like sunglasses from Barcelona to sandals from Greece.
In St. Jean - Yume boutique for French-African vibes & Mandarine for beautiful and unique treasures sourced by Annelisa Gee from around the world - including our very own ASHA fine jewelry & bespoke collections.
4. Swimming with kids at Flamands Beach - perfect sand, tranquil azure waters.
5. Lunch at Nikki beach with live saxophone player & dancing on tables.
6. Beach walk along St. Jean and watch planes land overhead on one of the smallest runways in the world.
8. Magnificent facial to the susurrus of waves at the Sisley spa at le Christopher hotel in Pointe Milou.
Mom looking radiant after her facial & sporting our new Gustavia tote :)
9. Dinner at Bonito with striking views of Gustavia harbor.
10. Two more extraordinary dinner places: L'isola for amazing, authentic Italian cuisine (even the waiters on this French island are Italian) & Orega for the freshest sushi.
Finally, practice your French as the island has a European vibe and sophistication like no other in the Caribbean! Mais oui!

As part one of their honeymoon, Ashley and Naveen travel to the Tuscan Coast for a dreamy stay at Il Pellicano. Read more about the food, fashion, and adventures.
This past spring while in Harbour Island, we launched a fun collaboration of pareos with artist Nealy H. I commissioned Nealy to paint motifs from our jewelry and dress collections and she reimagined them in beautiful watercolors.
I'm pretty private when it comes to my home and personal life, but I thought it would be fun to invite you into our home for some sneak peeks of some of my favorite nooks.
I got my start in Paris after a serendipitous meeting at a dinner party with Lorenz Baumer - then the head of fine jewelry for Chanel, while I was studying art history at La Sorbonne.
