Lisa August Earrings Fall 2013

For the rest of this week, I would like to post about our line that is premiering this weekend at the Accessories Circuit.   I would like to dedicate today's post to our earrings.  All of our earrings are on surgical steel posts or gold-filled ear wires.  My favorite thing about our earrings are that they give you the ability to wear big statement earrings, but you can't really even feel that you're wearing a pair of earrings.  No stretched out holes, no feeling of being weighed down, no: I wear small earrings because the big ones are uncomfortable.  Good thing they're lightweight, because I must say, I did go a little big with almost all the earrings this season!
Our skinny hoops: a timeless bestseller of ours.  Available in three sizes: 1.5", 2" & 2.5"

Our Mod Circle Drop Earring: very popular, shockingly lightweight!

Our Cabochon Studs are adorable!  They come as shown tokyo w/lapis, or tokyo w/black or Lapis w/Turquoise

Our favorite Filigree Earring.  Intricate, feminine but bold too!

Maybe my personal favorite: Our Crescent earring.  Gives lots of fun movement, and it's such a pretty color!

These are our Oval Drop Earrings.  Available in  5 fun color combinations. 

These cute little chandelier crescents are available in black and tortoise. 

Ok, maybe this is my favorite.  Love the black and white pattern, these Triangle Chain earrings are bold, clean in design and super unique.

It's Almost Lisa AUGUST time!

So, it's been a long month of delays and red tape, what have you.  We find ourselves entering August still in our former Bellissima space but the closing is in sight.  Also in sight are our first two trade shows, the big Lisa August premiere!  We set up for the ENK show this Friday, August 2nd.  Pretty hard to believe, but looking very much forward to it! Then we do it all over again for the Gift Show, new name: NY NOW, apparently.  We'll be finishing up some last minute show preparations this week, but I must say, other than the fact that we haven't moved into our new space (a minor set-back-haha) we are all set for our big reveal-so come see us!



ENK Show Booth # 7502 with Yvette Fry Showroom
NY NOW: Personal Accessories Booth #: 8650
Both shows are at the Javits Center this summer.

Woodside! (before)

Finding our new place in Woodside was not easy.  When we began our search for a space, we wanted to be in either Woodside or Long Island City, an easy commute via mass transit for all of us.  We saw some crazy places, we saw some beautiful places, promises were made and broken, ridiculous 'Only in New York Real Estate' things happened, but in the end, we found our new home.

It's two floors, the first floor will be where our machinery and acetate storage will be, the second floor will be our assembly area, office/design studio and kitchen/dining (very important).
It was a BEAUTIFUL day when we saw it, and we were in love with it.  Whenever I've gone back to see it and measure it, etc., it's been pouring outside!  Here are some pics of Lisa August's space, it will look a lot different by the end of the month, and the suspense is killing me!

The Downstairs.  Where some of the magic will happen!

Upstairs, photo taken where the office and kitchen area will be, facing where our assembly/studio area will be

Our office and kitchen space

Our terrace, and a whole bunch of rain-this will be worked on!

Our little kitchen and terrace space!
So, this is really the before, but it has so much potential, and it's going to look great!
