New Apis Atelier Volcanic Collection

You’re going to need to plan a very glamorous night out, for the new Apis Atelier Volcanic Collection.

Says Nicola of Apis Atelier:

This collection erupted from the sea and my memories of Maui. Walking through crunchy lava fields; ancient Hawaiian ruins; bonfires and black sand beaches; icy waterfalls; moonlit palm tree nights; long sandy walks searching for puka shells, driftwood and coral; and the smell of frangipani in the air.

Lava Rock was once a liquid molten mass that built volcanoes into islands millions of years ago. Agate was formed in ancient volcanic lava. Fossil Coral is a natural stone formed when ancient coral is gradually replaced with agate. They include naturally formed colour patterns, voids and irregular surfaces which make each one unique. The Megaladon’s tooth, once described as a “tongue stone”, belonged to the biggest prehistoric shark that ever lived. Sand Dollar’s once fragile exoskeleton has been cast into solid bronze to last an age.

These are all grounding stones, fossils and talismans that give strength, protection and harmony, allowing stability through change. They strengthen the body and the body’s connection to Earth. They bring luck to those that wear them.

#ItTakesCourage

So if you read my Year Of Fear Post, you’ll get why the latest Ray-Ban Campaign #ItTakesCourage, really spoke to me! And – I really needed the reminder!!! (Slight set back with travel & lack of sleep)

Ray-Ban’s 2016 #ItTakesCourage campaign roots itself in the ethos that courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the triumph over it. Courage is not just physical bravery, but is what pushes people to face their fears and to go beyond their limits.

While I don’t have any tattoos myself,  I love their series of tattoo inspired campaigns! I can’t wait to see the next installation.

And speaking of my favourite sunnies brand, I’m so enjoying my new Erika Ray-Ban frames. Something a little different from my go-to Wayfarers. I’m usually not a fan of a thin frame, but these feel super comfy, even on a run and I love the clean, minimal styling.

 

A few more styles I’m loving.
