FIVE MINUTES WITH .... Genevieve Jones
Kate Moss loves her fringe bags(which are aptly named the 'Kate fringe' bag),
her jewellery is worn by Rihanna, Agyness Deyn, Rachel Zoe, Marc Jacobs and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld to name a few.
Her inspiration for her accessory line is drawn from life, nature and her travels around the world. Her handmade pieces crafted in Thailand are both personable and timeless.
Genevieve's style & aura is a source of inspiration to many,a true style icon and she is muse to some well known designers. Thus the launch of her own label was no surprise. Each piece is a clear extension of her yummy personality.
I am in lust with her fabulous ‘Tree Bucket’ (a divine studded bucket shaped handbag), ‘Vertebrae’ cuffs, Monte Cristo ring and ‘Bird bracelet’.
I tracked down the busy style maven and accessory designer for a five minute convo’.
