Tortoise

Tortoise Shell to Most, Refers to the Large Turtles - To a Design/Fashion Enthusiast We think of the Amber, Black & Brown Spotted Resin Inspired by the Uniquely Colored and Patterned Shell these Tortoise's have in Order to Blend and Protect Themselves.

In the Past the Actual Shells were Used for All Sorts of Things: Furniture, Dish-ware, Accessories etc...  Today we Replicate this Beautiful Pattern Found in Nature with a Plastic Resin Material.

My Love of Tortoise is in it's Blend of Neutrals (Black and Brown) but Even More so for the Rich Golden Amber Color.  Amber is a Mix of Gold and Orange; Combined with the Darker Neutrals makes for a Palette that Compliments Any Color Pairing.  The Pattern is Spotty but Abstract, with no Definite Lines or Distinctions. 

This Blouse is an Eye Catcher!  Rhinestone Beaded Detailing has been Present on Garments (Especially the Neckline) for the Past Couple of Years, but this Beading is Highly Distinct for it's Large Tortoise Flower Shaped Design.  It was a Must Have!

The Tortoise Beads have a Polished Luster that Contrasts Against the Super Sparkly Gems as Well as the Cream Canvas of the Blouse.  

The Neutral Colors of the Tortoise is Sure to Compliment All Skin & Hair Colors as Well as Any Color You Choose to Pair with this Blouse.  I Chose Emerald Green (For Red Head's it's Our Signature Color to Compliment our Ginger Locks!)  I Plan to also Pair with these Hues: Mustard, Blue, Gray, Black, Red, and Denim.    
For a Causal Look: Wear this Blouse Untucked with a Pair of Black Cigarette Pants and Heels/Booties = Super Chic!

Look for Tortoise in Your Sunglasses & Hair Clips - it's Softer than a Solid Brown or Black and Blends Nicely with All Hair Colors.
