Four Designers from Unique LA

Inside Unique LA, four Los Angeles-based accessories designers that should be on your fashion radars.

Anamu Handbags

What happens to vintage scarves after they’re discarded? Usually, they end up in a pile full of cast offs at the Fairfax Flea Market, most likely never to be worn again. That is until Ana Maria Munoz of Anamu Designs rescues them and turns these once abandoned beauties into handcrafted creations worthy of any woman’s arm. You can follow Anamu on Twitter @Anamu or visit their website at AnamuOnline.com.

Astali Jewelry

This line has been featured in just about every international magazine you can think of, but it’s the first time we’ve seen it in the US. Shame on us. Astali is leading the of the industrial chic trend that’s quickly taking root coast to coast. You can follow Astali on Twitter @Astali or visit them online at Astali.com.

DeKoeyer Designs

We can’t say enough about Ms. DeKoeyer; her collection stopped us in our tracks. This wildly creative contemporary, yet sophisticated and chic, line will capture your heart. You can find Jennifer DeKoeyer online at JDeKoeyer.com and shop her amazing collections.

Raven + Lily

Do you ever wonder where Cythnia Vincent and Trina Turk donate their production remnants? They send them to Raven + Lily for a little HOPE. Hope Gardens is a transitional housing facility for women and children formerly living on the streets of Los Angles. Non-profit organization Raven + Lily recycles LA based designer’s production remmants into materials the residents of Hope Gardens turn into amazing up-cycled jewelry collections. You can find Raven + Lily online or visit their wonderful blog.
