Keira wears: Christine necklace by Fournier

Halter top made by me paired with Zara denim mini, Christine necklace by Fournier.

These beautiful necklaces are hand-made beauties from Fournier, the company Anabel Fournier founded. I'm already a big fan of her blog And So I Whisper but I'm also a big fan of her company's clothing and accessories, hand-made with a social conscious behind them. Remember the Tooth Fairy crochet plush she sent Keira (read that post here)? Well, Keira's about to lose about 3 or 4 teeth now and it's going to come in handy very soon!

I've been seeing Fournier products on Anabel's website and blog for a while now and as soon as I heard she had opened her own online shop, well, I headed there straight away and ordered these gorgeous necklaces! One is a double stranded beaded necklace, wrapped in an african wax print which I bought for Keira but have been wearing for myself ever since it arrived and the other is the fabulous and extremely soft & luxurious Christine necklace. I have to admit, it is extremely hard not to order more than 2 at a time! They are all so gorgeous.

Keira chose this necklace to wear to dinner with her tante Loulou & Grandmaman

Lovely detailing of Christine necklace...

As I've gotten older, I no longer buy things just to have them. I like to know the provenance behind the products and more importantly, the person or team behind it as well. I like to buy lasting pieces that will stand the test of time... and trends. What I love about Anabel's company is that each piece is hand-made by an artisan, living in Bolivia. Some of these women may live in poverty but they've been given a chance to make a living from their artwork and we are given a chance to fall in love with these heritage pieces. I know I will keep wearing my necklaces for years to come and hopefully take good care of them so Keira will enjoy wearing them now and later in life.

And if you think that taking style shots of Keira is easy peasy, check out a few of the out-takes below. Cuz that's usually what I get out of her about 90% of the time! haha.
