Shannon Davenport and Julia Wilson are West Coast girls at heart. The two met while attending UC San Diego and bonded over their shared interest in fashion and Southwestern art. Upon graduating, the girls moved to New York City where Davenport worked as an editor at a trend-forecasting firm and Wilson landed a role at revered accessories brand Loeffler Randall. While their budding careers took flight, they never lost sight of their goal to create jewelry inspired by their love for the West. Born out of their Brooklyn loft, Fortune Favors the Brave is their vision realized, and the industry loves what they're seeing. Melding classic Navajo motifs with Western wear, Davenport and Wilson's jewelry line includes silver and gold necklaces, bracelets, and rings with traditional touches like the bolo tie and arrow motif.

There’s a special kind of happiness reserved for wearing rain boots in bad weather. You’re finally allowed (and even encouraged) to step in puddles and your feet have no idea what kind of mucky water lies just outside their rubber-clad toes. Some of this season’s best rain boots are coming out of Loeffler Randall, and they’ve even given thought to the perfect sock pairing.

Loeffler Randall is embracing its inner child for resort season. An image of the footwear gems in question arrived in my inbox this morning (pictured here), of which designer Jessie Randall says, "these styles are all about transitioning you from cool weather (the Kay cross-zip bootie and the June lace-up bootie ) to warm weather (the Carlie strappy mignon sandal) to everything in between (the Keira snap platform worn over tights)." Apparently Randall found inspiration in none other than a picture book: "I began by looking at one of my most beloved children’s books called 'Little Blue and Little Yellow' by Leo Lionni.'"

Loeffler Randall, the brand that began creating covetable women's footwear and, more recently, equally drool-worthy clothes, has relaunched its website. The suped-up porthole now includes a significantly sleeker design as well as an online shop hawking a select grouping of Loeffler Randall's goods (which distinctly channel Chloe circa Phoebe Philo with regard to the latter's menswear-infused yet feminine, weightless, and infinitely wearable designs). Designer Jessie Randall hosted a breakfast at the Cooper Square Hotel yesterday morning in honor of the launch, herself sporting a roomy LR black romper and beige, suede studded booties from her recently completed SS10 collection for the event. Randall showed off her new e-commerce site as well as Loeffler Randall's new editorial features: namely a blog. And to make purchasing something even easier on your conscience, Loeffler Randall is donating a portion of its proceeds made between now and October 1 to the charity Living India.
