I just returned home from beautiful Hutchinson Island, Florida where we hosted our 2017 Spring/Summer photo shoot.  I honestly couldn’t be feel any more proud, lucky and excited than I do right now.  The Dune team is such a unique bunch of creative professionals that although we worked 14 hour days, it still felt a bit like a vacation!

My photographers, Steve and Sam, flew down with me and Dustin to West Palm Beach where we were greeted by one of my best friends and our Sales Manager, Kate Colozzi.  We hit the grocery store and headed straight to La Dolce Vita, our home for the next 3 days.  Kate cooked the most delicious salmon and roasted brussel sprouts for us while the rest of the team showed up continually throughout the evening.  Moira and Julie, our 3rd photo team – then Daphney our hair and makeup artist and Camille and Ashley, our kick-ass models.

Steve and Sam worked with Daphney to create tons of unique looks while Moira worked independently with Julie to take stylized jewelry photos.  She’s our #1 sales person and super creative so it was the perfect team.  Moira even jumped in to model for a few shots!

Kate, Dustin and I ran around making sure everyone and everything was running as smoothly as possible.

Stackable Bracelets

One of the new designs that received a lot of focus is the sterling stackable collection.  I’m especially in love with our Sandbar option but have noticed that there are many Bermuda triangle enthusiasts that just LOVE the triangle option…and of course starfish are one of our longtime best sellers so the starfish design came naturally.  I hope you’ll take a moment to peruse the new items and stay tuned for the outcome of our photo shoot in early January.  I cannot WAIT for you all to see the new designs and photos.
