La Dolce Vita: literally translated as the sweet life. We have named our collection for encapsulating the pursuit of leisure, and celebrating the nostalgia in holidaymakers of a bygone era.

When brainstorming the vision for new designs, a discussion on Slim Aarons photography began and never stopped. What began as chatter of fantasy and folly transformed into the spark that ignited La Dolce Vita.

From there, the collection took on a life of its own, with standout pieces that felt easy to wear and stayed true to the classic Susan Shaw look. Over the next six months, we worked to design and produce pieces that could have been easily worn while casually lounging in a Palm Springs poolside film roll.




The collection draws inspiration from three distinct decades, and features pieces that we envision being worn on faraway beaches, at dazzling rendezvous, and during the holiday of our dreams. The collection’s styling nods to nostalgic elements and the marriage of new + old. This story aligns with our own, a proven legacy that withstands the test of time.
Since 1979, we have produced jewelry that keeps up with the trends but remains classic enough to wear for years on end. Like Slim Aarons’s photography, Susan Shaw jewelry continues to get even better with age.
