The Totem hoop ‘summer version’ of our Mismatched Cameos from Fall/Winter (swipe to spot the differences) Even though.... I think I‘ll be wearing them both this summer 🌞🌞 #beckjewels #mismatchedearrings #barneysny #barneysnewyork
Our Totem hoops began as one things and morphed into something completely different in great part to these Jean Arp sculptures, the movement and shapes, the irregular balance— to have the base (its grounding strength) be the smallest part of the piece, to me, is quiet revolutionary. I took on each Totem piece as if I were creating a tiny sculpture. (b. 1886, Strassburg, Germany; d. 1966, Basel) #beckjewels #jeanarp #surealism

Curaçao yellow 🌞 one of my favorite colors and a very common paint color on the island, it’s a mix of dandelion and canary yellow. Growing up I thought this was very normal until I realized most countries don’t have this much fun with paint, which led me to look into why we have this beautiful practice.... and here it is... In the 16th century our buildings were finished with lime plaster made from crushed shells, which dried stark white in the intense Caribbean sun. The story goes that a former governor of the island who suffered from severe headaches, believing they were aggravated by the sun’s intense reflections off the white buildings, mandated that building exteriors be painted any color but white. (It was later discovered that he was a shareholder in the island’s only paint store! Haha) Nevertheless, the tradition of painting in vivid colors continued, making Willemstad’s Dutch and Spanish colonial style architecture a UNESCO protected gem in the Caribbean ✨✨💛 Follow @sandandstilettos and @infinito.hel for more beautiful pictures of our island 💛 #curacaoproud #curacao #rightnowincuracao #dushibida #willemstad #dushikorsou
