Brand Spotlight: Lionette by Noa Sade
9:00 AMWhen two female friends came together to curate an accessory collection that captured the essence of a lioness, Lionette was founded. Noa Sade of Israel and China-born, NYC-raised Vanessa Lee founded Lionette in 2009, they wanted to design a jewelry line for that empowered woman who is passionate and fearless in her everyday life. From traveling around the world and being globally inspired, they use those experiences to gain of better understanding of their "lioness" customer. Along with those travels they cleverly name the pieces of jewelry after people they met and place they been. These two best friends and business partners continue to build their brand as they based in NYC and their jewelry are all handmade.
See their q&a below and see which mega popstar was recently wearing their ring to wrist bracelet...
