One of the best things about being an influencer/blogger is finding new companies creating products that I love and that inspire me! One of those companies is French Kande!

I first discovered French Kande a couple of years ago and was captivated by the combination of materials such as pearls, medallions and crystals. I always love supporting women owned companies!

My description of French Kande would be boho chic…and the more you layer the gorgeous pieces the more interesting your look becomes!

I don’t know about you, but I have different moods on different days and how I’m feeling determines how I dress. I have several “styles” that I would call my “go to” styles and a more boho aesthetic is one of them. Lately, I’ve also been feeling the Palm Royale vibes (if you haven’t watched this series…you must) and I also have a somewhat classic style that I go back to.

Denim is an almost daily staple in my wardrobe and I mix up tops and styles of jeans according to my mood (my current favorite jeans are here). For example, I may wear a crew neck tee with a short gold chain, straight leg jeans and gold sandals when I’m wanting a classic, more minimal look. When I’m feeling a little more sassy, I’ll wear distressed jeans with a more flowy top and a higher heel. It all depends on my mood, and honestly, the amount of time I have to think about my outfit!

French Kande jewelry easily changes any outfit from plain to WOW and it’s so easy to layer using different length necklaces. The bracelets also mix easily with other ones that I wear everyday.

French Kande is an iconic vintage inspired jewelry line created by Los Angeles-based designer Kande Hall. Her collections feature vintage French medallions from the 1960’s discovered during her travels throughout France.

Each piece offers its own unique history and brilliantly captures the style and attitude of the French culture. Designed and manufactured entirely in her hometown of Los Angeles, every casting is designed by Kande and branded exclusively for French Kande’s use.

Kande designs exclusively with natural, high-quality materials. Every strand of pearls and semi-precious stones, as well as every length of chain and Austrian crystal is personally curated to insure her distinctive “Throw On and Go” aesthetic.

The necklaces and bracelet I’m wearing in the picture above are from the Os Blanc Deux collection. The detail is exquisite and it’s perfect for summer!

You may remember the picture above from a recent post. I’m wearing the same French Kande jewelry with a totally different look.

Be sure to visit the French Kande website to see more of this fabulous jewelry!

About the cheese board…

I had very little choice of cheeses the day I made this board but it was actually very delicious! The dates and parmesan were a great flavor combination and the citrus marmalade added a little tartness. Sometimes, you just have to go with what’s in the refrigerator!

The actual board was a birthday gift from a friend and I love how it’s slightly elevated! This board is perfect for a “board for two” but it’s also great as part of a bigger charcuterie display. Having a collection of different shapes and styles of boards and platters makes entertaining so much easier!

Life Lately…

I’m still in Columbia visiting my daughter and leaving this afternoon! It’s been so much fun to spend time with Sarah and Bristol. We’ve had some great dinners…one at Di Vino Rosso and the other at Il Giorgione. Both are Italian but very different and I highly recommend either! Il Giorgione is a little more casual with lots of outdoor seating…they serve delicious pasta dishes, pizza and great salads. Di Vino Rosso is more of a fine dining experience with a great wine list, homemade pasta and great fish entrees!

Sarah and I did a little shopping yesterday at Anthropologie and Loft and also at the cutest little children’s shop called Duck Duck Goose. We always have to get the babies a few surprises!

I can’t wait to photograph the pieces I purchased for myself and do a blog post! Evidently chocolate brown is very of the moment and I got the cutest chocolate brown summer suit (blazer and skort) at Loft and a great pair of linen pants at Anthropologie!

Even though I had the best time here in Columbia and in California (post coming soon), I’m so ready to be home for a little while! I haven’t even had the chance to put ferns out on my front porch and it’s almost the middle of June! I don’t remember traveling this much in my whole life and it’s fun, but this homebody is ready to putter around the house for a week or so and catch up on laundry…

Tomorrow, I’m back in the kitchen filming a few cooking videos for summer and I’ll be sharing all the recipes here on Crazy Blonde Life!

I hope you enjoyed today’s post and thank you so much for reading!

I’m including a boutique below so you can easily shop everything in the post! Unfortunately, I can’t link the pieces from French Kande directly, but just click where I’ve highlighted the words and you be taken to the website!
