New Chile Fair Trade Jewelry As you will well know, Chile recently suffered a terrible earthquake. As the people of Chile focus on rebuilding, jewellery artisans need to find export markets to sell their jewellery in order to earn a living and support their families.

Accoutrements is a French loanword basically meaning “associated accessories,” “paraphernalia,” or, more colloquially, “neat stuff.”  That also does a good job of describing what Accoutrements Gifts offers!  They specialize in making wacky, fun toys and gifts that have a distinctive look, style, and sense of humor.  The stuff they make ranges from gag to great, but we like it all.  They’ve been around since 1980, making new classics (“squirrel underpants,” anyone?) and updating old ones (like this deliciously retro, Western-themed mini bowling bag ). Though there’s obviously some overlap, you could do worse than divide their offerings down a seriously cool/seriously hilarious line.  Here’s a few links so you can see the oddball zaniness that characterizes Accoutrements

Our taste in cowboy boots runs pretty broad, as far as those things are concerned.  There’s a simple reason for that: different boots for different occasions!  Heck, two of the last three posts on this very blog focused on rugged, workmanlike Resistol boots and the haute couture stylings of the Diva by Lucchese line.  Though you might feel more comfortable wearing the subdued Resistols day-to-day, sometimes you just want to cut loose and wear something a little more flashy (never mind that Resistols are for men and the Diva by Lucchese line for women…you get the point).  Old Gringo boots , on the classic-classy spectrum, lie on the more fancy side of things.  These are dancing boots if we’ve ever seen them.  (Being from Austin, I can tell you we have.) Old Gringo Men’s Boots Old Gringo men’s boots are colorful, highly stylized and well-finished affairs, clearly designed to be eye-catching.  But their excellence doesn’t just run skin-deep.  Founded in 2000, Old Gringo has managed to marry a contemporary fashion sense to the time-honored tradition of boot-making.  In a way, this commitment to quality design is similar to some of the more elaborate Luccheses, but in this case, the boots are a little more up-to-date, a little more eye-catching.  They manage to do this without being unnecessarily loud.  Old Gringos are nothing  if not classy boots.

Here in Austin, it sure has been hot! We can’t tell you how useful cowboy hats have been in shielding our eyes from the sun on these scorching summer days. So we all know how handy cowboy hats can be when it comes to protecting yourself from the weather, but what about other summer western wear ? The great thing about western wear like blue jeans and hats is that it’s perfect all year long and is incredibly durable and useful whether you’re working on the ranch or out on the town

Good Monday Morning to Everyone! I trust and hope that everyone had a great weekend! My weekend was packed with a Intergalactic Bead Show on Saturday and Sunday was filled with the actual jewelry making from some of the great goodies that I found at the Bead Show! One design that turned out much better than I originally had expected was the Midnight Mist Earrings. Using links of sterling silver chain to create a ” tassel ” effect make a new, fun, as well as elegant addition to any one’s wardrobe! I will definitely be creating more designs very similar to this. Keep a look out for a matching necklace which is sure to be another wonderful addition to the fashion accessory wardrobe! Enjoy!
