The Snobettes  have a wide appreciation for style  that is of course not limited by gender. Hence our appreciation for menswear. While at Project in New York  we stole some pieces from the men’s brands and  had some of the cool women working at the show  rock some looks. Enjoy a look at  Hana from Nutty Rice. On the next page get a closer look and details shot by the fantastic  on-site team of  Sandbox Studio  and styled by Highnobette  .

Pura Vida, “Pure Life,” inspired by the beauty and simplicity of life is a line of friendship bracelets handmade by artisans in Costa Rica, in a unique combination of colors. While we love a good friendship bracelet, what we love even more is the fact that the line serves as a vehicle for  local artisans to make a living out of  their craft. Take a look at the vast assortment of covetable bracelets here. Of course we advocate for piling on as many as you, can and rock what is being called  “arm party”!
