floating flowers


More previews from my new collection! I'm doing a new thing.
FLOATING FLOWER NECKLINE.
It's absolutely beautiful on everyone! Everyone loves strapless dresses, right? But does everyone love how it looks on them? I could go without the extra skin that folds over the dress at the armpit. That's why I've decided to add some applique details around that area. Instead of flowers and leaves beautifully dripping down the front of my Jewel Numkki dresses, they are floating upwards adding softness and elegance.

Here's a photoboothfun photo with my friend who doesn't have a problem with strapless dresses. I treated myself to the Teal Steal Dress!

In the works...
I love my teal pins.

go green


Here's a little teaser before the new Jewel Numkki Fall Collection is released!

The Go Green Dress is a one shoulder baby doll dress that's perfect for this warm California weather. I'm more of a cool autumn gal, but I'm really enjoying these sunny days. I'm also enjoying the cool breeze and the carefree feeling of driving with the window all the way down. My a/c is normally
always on, but the other day I decided to roll down the window to air out my car. It was smelling like charcoal and barbequed corn from my husband's birthday party. It's such a great feeling. It almost feels like I'm running. Without the running part. Fresh air, warmth of the sun hitting my arm(after I take off my Korean ahjuma sleeve) and the sound of other cars and people talking. It's so carefree! You should try it out. It's also environmentally friendly. Go green!

jewel numkki elephant dolls?


No, Jewel Numkki doesn't make elephant dolls. It was just an attempt at making something for a good friend's daughter's 1st birthday. This pink elephant made of felt was just too adorable not to blog about.
