L'Intermission - The Jewel

You’re a Gem!

Through our publisher, marketing firm, and design studio, The Idea Boutique, VIE has held a longstanding friendship with Lisa Peters, the owner of fine jewelry retailers in Northwest Florida who most recently opened The Jewel, located in Grand Boulevard Town Center in Sandestin. It has been a joy watching her brand evolve.

The Jewel, much like VIE, celebrates life and aims to inspire its audience to be authentic and gracious in all things. In other words: Be Bold, Be Beautiful, and Be You!

As a #Throwback in this issue, we’re reminiscing over some of our favorite photo shoot moments working with incredible gems from Lisa Peters’s brands! We glittered our way through Ballynahinch Castle as we shot fashions by Christian Siriano in the west of Ireland (it was so sunny that day, the locals even asked if we had performed some sort of ritual sacrifice).

We’re still ogling over the impressive Mazza Company gemstones on cover girl Darby Kilpatrick in our farm-to-table shoot at Arnett’s Gulfside Farm and Stables. And let’s not forget how we channeled the glamour of the 1920s in our Great Gatsby–inspired shoot inside the inaugural VIE idea house in 2013. Now those sparkles truly were the bee’s knees!

Visit ShopTheJewel.com to see all the designers in their charming store, and don’t forget to stop by if you’re around Grand Boulevard!

Love, VIE xo
