"Our collaboration with NYC Stylist, Dy'amond Breedlove has been such an exciting experience. From the design and creation process to our weekend shoot in Central Park, it's been incredible to work with such a fashion trendsetter. Dy'amond's avant-garde style and willingness to take chances really lent a fresh aesthetic to this collection and I'm thrilled to share it with you." - Holly Daniels Christensen

The one and only Experiential Jewelry company famous for incorporating sand and earth elements from thousands of memorable and iconic locations around the world, Dune Jewelry, launched two new collections. The company specializes in creating tangible and eternal reminders of life's most precious moments.

Working with well-known New York fashion stylist and image creator, Dy'amond Breedlove, Dune launched the LOVE22 and BREEDLOVE collections. This bold departure from their quintessential beachy aesthetic is a "concrete direction" for the brand, says Founder & CEO of Dune, Holly Daniels Christensen. "Dy'amond has worked with fashion brands Salvatore Ferragamo and Akris as well as luxury retailer Moda Operandi, and celebrity costume designer Shiona Turini. This is the fresh vibe I've been looking for."  Not only is Christensen excited to work with Dy'amond who she considers a friend, but she's also proud to showcase the simple power of women working together. "Diversity and a unique understanding of fashion and sentiment is key for Dune Jewelry," says Christensen.

Both LOVE22 and the BREEDLOVE collection include rings, earrings, necklaces and most importantly they have added a piece that functions two ways – the BREEDLOVE Brooch is perfection when worn on a blazer, hat or the back pocket of a favorite pair of jeans, then it also doubles as a statement-making necklace filled with memories from any of life's adventures. Pieces are fashioned in 14K gold vermeil and sterling silver.

Influences for LOVE 22:
"This collection reflects who I am and what inspires me the most. It is influenced by music and fashion but was thoughtfully created to reflect the classic stylings of Paris, France, all of which have a piece of my heart," says Breedlove. Customers can make LOVE22 their own by personalizing it with sand or an earth element that inspires their creative spirit. 

Influences for BREEDLOVE:
"Both name and designs are uniquely crafted which is an accurate depiction of my lifestyle and business. I allow myself to be creative and free, which helps me in numerous ways and provides an outlet for serenity and divine happiness," says Breedlove. Customers can make BREEDLOVE their own by personalizing it with sand or an earth element that inspires serenity and happiness.
