Sylca Designs now at SZ Gallery - [Moment of Inspiration]

May 1, 2018

This month's Moment of Inspiration is Sylca Designs, a mother-daughter duo who created a jewelry line that we will be featuring at SZ Gallery starting in June! Their bold and modern designs are eco-friendly and lightweight, plus they donate a portion of their sales to a non-profit. We love how their passion for making beautiful jewelry and products makes such a positive difference in the world.

Sylca Designs is owned by Sylvia and Camila (mother and daughter, respectively); the business's name is a portmanteau of their first names. On their website, they share that they started their business "with one vision: to empower women to feel fashionable, beautiful, and, most importantly, confident." And we think their lovely jewelry definitely lives up to their mission!

Moment of Inspiration - [Restorative Retreat in Sayulita, Mexico]

January 15, 2018

This month's Moment of Inspiration comes from a personal experience of mine. In early January, I attended the Haramara Retreat in Sayulita, Mexico with Pilates instructor Tonya Lenheim. I spent a week in nature without technology, in awe of how the world can be when we pause and disconnect. This pause provided me with time to reflect, allowing for a "reboot" of the senses and a return to the basics. Now, I feel that I've returned with a feeling of centeredness.
