Today I am talking about a brand I love which happens to be owned and operated by two friends of mine. Not only are they both so incredibly creative but also so kind. I was introduced to Lizzie and Kathryn Fortunado through a dear friend, Stacy Smallwood who runs Hampden Clothing. Hampden has been a long time supporter of Lizzie and her jewelry line. Since being introduced years ago, it has been so fun to watch the brand grow and evolve. Each season they deliver high quality pieces that feel unique, yet wearable. I am excited to introduce all of you to the world of Lizzie Fortunado jewelry!

ABOUT LIZZIE FORTUNADO JEWELRY

Lizzie Fortunado was launched in 2008 by Lizzie. Her twin sister Kathryn invested in the brand a few years later in 2010 and that remains the only funding the brand has ever taken. Over the years, they have expanded their offering to include jewelry, handbags, belt scarves, and even home goods! They have an awesome studio in SoHo, NYC and you can read much more about their story and deep passion for what they do here.

I’ve always been impressed by how thoughtful they have been about the materials they use and the craftsmanship of the pieces, but also how they want to grow the business. Their pieces speak for themselves, and I think a part of their success has been their storytelling and their deep and authentic connections to other women in the industry. To know them is to love them!

LIZZIE FORTUNADO CLASSICS

The brand doesn’t tend to follow trends and so many of their pieces are created to mix and match and wear season after season. While they will create more editorial pieces each drop they will always have a great range of everyday jewelry. Let’s check out some of my favorite Lizzie Fortunado jewelry pieces and how I am styling them.

LAGUNA NECKLACE

The Laguna necklace is a classic and comes in six awesome colors this season. It is a great way to add a pop to a classic stack. Here I’ve mixed it with their Porto chain (which you can add charms to like this one) and the confetti letter necklace. While I styled this mix with a very vibrant print, this jewelry line up would also look great back to an everyday pair of straight leg jeans and a white tee.

ORGANIC HOOP EARRINGS

Earrings weren’t my thing for years, but that quickly changed about five years ago. Now, I feel naked without them! The mini organic hoop earrings are a great size – not quite a statement earring, but also not shy piece. They feel like just enough with an everyday look. The range of colors is also wonderful, from the mocha I am wearing (that feels sophisticated and timeless), to the clear flamingo for more of a fun moment. I styled these with the Laguna necklace and the beaded reef necklace that has a great pop of coral. This dress, which has been on repeat, has an awesome neckline to show these LF jewels off.

THE RESIN CUFF

I am saving the best for last – Lizzie Fortunado’s line up of resin cuffs. They are lightweight, easy to style, and fun to mix and match. The Arc cuff and the Ridge cuff are my two must-haves when it comes to cuff bracelets. I am wearing a line up of brown tones here, but don’t miss out on the colors in these cuffs! The marbled aquamarine would look so chic off of tan and the clear options are so funky and fun.

LIZZIE FORTUNADO JEWELRY NEW ARRIVALS

The LF team just released some new styles for pre-fall and I wanted to highlight my top five!

THE MINI LUSH EARRINGS IN LEMON // You know I have been on a turquoise kick! The color combination in these drop earrings is perfection!

MILANO COLLAR // Talk about a statement for the season. This necklace would look stunning paired with this dress for a great pre-fall transitional look.

BLOOM EARRINGS // Looking for something very fem? Check out these floral earrings in seafoam that would look fun back to an orange-y, coral lip.

MONUMENT RING // The monument ring is a style not to be missed from the Lizzie Fortunado jewelry collection. See all the fun, different combinations here including the newest introduction of sage!

CANARY CLIFFS NECKLACE // I love a great, unexpected color combination so of course this necklace caught my eye. A unique mix of pink and chartreuse!
