Don't Throw
Your Siblings Under
The Bus

Sisters is a brand based in Istanbul and founded this 2016. Free Spirit is the first thing that comes to mind when you look at their site; evoked by the style of their photography and catch phrase "Don't Throw Your Siblings Under The Bus" - Sisters' mission is to put a light on positive women relationships and empower them through fashion. The genius behind the visuals is Designer Ozan Akkoyun who focused on the sartorial intersection between the unfussy L.A. style and casual French elegance.

Glossier

If you have been living in this planet, then you must already know about the genius that is Glossier. Glossier started back in 2010 with the blog intothegloss.com - Founded by beauty Editors who were not afraid of trying close to anything to make the best reviews and now the best products. I find Glossier to be game-changing. It's real brand for real girls, easy to wear, 3 steps and focused on making us the priority and not the product itself. That's what caught my eye about their choice of packaging and their stunning website. It is fun, it is fresh and most importantly it's relatable.

Bing Bang Jewelry

Bing and Bang - like most four letter words - are far bigger than the sum of their parts. The design of the eponymous line of jewelry follows the tradition of its founder, Anna Sheffield. Her background in the blacksmith's shop still holds true today, with use of hammer and anvil in the making of BB products, most of which are made in a NYC studio.
