This weekend was our last Trunk Show for the Spring/Summer season at Henri Bendel.

It’s always so much fun to meet lovely people and make new friends. Thanks to Raysa for always cheering us up and showing us the most amazing jewelry from Bagdley Mishka...I can’t wait to get a hold on those coral earrings!

Judith Haas and Mai Florez, ladies always a pleasure to see you and drool over your beautiful jewelry…You are natural models too!.

And our “carina” Francesca Mondello, she designs the most amazing sunglasses, entirely handmade in Italy with 400 UV protection. Girl, thanks for finding us the perfect sunglasses…and doesn’t she look cute on our Chain scarf!!!

That’s it for now, we will be back at Bendel’s for Fall 2010 and look forward to see you all there.

Five years ago in a trip we made through the coast of Peru, I was mesmerized by the textures of the desert coast of my own country. We encountered sand, dark green waters, rocks, ancient pyramids made of adobe that stood solemn but almost gone. This is Peru’s coast:  rich in sea life, minerals and ancient cities.

But it’s also very colorful, in the valleys were the rivers flow and the land is fertile…

And for that, I want to also share a song that I love for it’s sound and joy but most important, because it’s my brother’s song.  Spring Lover’s Song ( si tu quieres) by “Franzua” Peglau.

After finding the right materials and recreating our favorite textures and stitches for warmer weather I am proud to present Hortensia’s first Spring collection. Functional oversized tunics and tees, chain scarves, berets & headbands that I’m sure I will be seeing a lot of you wearing this summer…

The collection will be available for now at our online shop, only by pre-order. And we are giving a 15% discount and complimentary shipping on all pieces. So hurry up because it’s limited edition and you want to make sure you are one of the lucky few!

I will be also posting a style every week with tips on how to wear it, along with an inside scoop on the process of creating the piece and the inspiration. Hope you enjoy it and love to hear your comments!
