fresh ginger

dawn patrol + she sold seashells

indie designers from hawaii have been getting a lot of buzz lately and ginger13 definitely deserves all the recent accolades. designer cindy yokoyama's fresh take on designs influenced by nature are bold and fun and just the right thing when you want to add a little flair to your outfit.

a few of my favorites from her spring 2006 collection include dawn patrol and she sold seashells. cindy's jewelry is handmade and many of the objects in her designs feel like they have been discovered while beachcombing. ginger13's online shop recently launched and the line is also stocked at a few boutiques in the islands as well as on the mainland.
