Brazilian Flair - Only a Click Away

Pretty Pink sells jewellery and handbags sourced directly from Brazil. Ilana Ewing started researching the idea and contacting Brazilian suppliers at the beginning of 2007 and since then haslaunched a fabulous website - http://www.prettypink.eu/.

The handbags are all sourced directly from Brazil and include: designer leather handbags by Marcello Marcellini in ostrich and alligator (such as this divine black clutch handbag) - and all registered by the Brazilian enviromental protection agency IBAMA; lovely eco-friendly recycled bags made by 1001 Retalhos from old lorry tarpaulins, and decorated in typical Brazilian patchwork designs - such as the Paraty Casinha.

Ratifhy's sumptious range of contemporary handbags such as Clean Cut Red, Bronze Meia Lua (only £39!), Porcelena and Robino Studs. And finally Alzira's - a small family run factory in the North-East of Brazil - which produces high quality handmade straw handbags, such as Brown Straw, which is a natural straw bag with brown leather features.

The majority of the jewellery and accessories on our site are handmade by Ilana Ewing, who uses a variety of natural Brazilian products in her work. Many of the beads are seeds, beans, reclaimed wood and coconut shell from the Amazon Rainforest, such as Coquinho - which combines coquinho seeds with glass beads.

The seeds used in Ilana's pieces are collected from The Amazon and The Pantanal and harvested in such a way that there is no danger or damage to the trees, plants or the environment, and are chosen so that the natural beauty of the wood and seeds shines through in every piece.

Some of the jewellery features semi-precious stones, again sourced naturally from Brazil, and works include: Chunky Onyx Necklace, Amethyst Dreamer and Turquoise and Murano Choker. We also have a wonderful selection of bracelets, chokers - such as the gorgeous Six-Strand Acai Choker at (£27) and earrings - such as the colourful Red Agate Earrings.

As well as all these beautiful handbags and accessories, our site also features our Handbag of the Month, information about Eco-Fashion, and discusses the Fashion Trends & Tips for Spring 2008 - which includes an analysis of the colours for 2008 in the Pantone Fashion Colour Report.

All of the items have been especially chosen to add a slice of South American flair to your wardrobe, and offer a fashionable, yet classical range, carefully chosen to suit the tastes of the modern woman. So give us a go – because Brazilian flair is only a click away.
