okadesigns.com has a new look

We teamed with shopify.com to create an online presence that cant be missed... and we LOVE it! When shopping for your favorite necklace(s) you can also choose which clasp you want to go with it (diamond studded or plain silver).

Our suggestion is that everyone start with 2 clasps because that is what you need to put 2 necklaces together. You also need 2 clasps to wear a centerpiece. As you buy more necklaces, you dont have to purchase more clasps, unless of course you want to connect 3 necklaces together to make a long style that can be draped around your neck.

Happy Shopping!

Fashion for football

One thing I've learned about the south is that college football is a lifestyle, and I happen to be in UGA (University of Georgia) territory. So on game days the girls get out their red and black and make way to the stadium to cheer on the Dawgs. Two of the prettiest UGA fans happen to also be huge Oka Designs fans:)

Why, Yes! We love couture

Atlanta's fashion scene is about to be taken by storm! Furniture designer, Mimi Tin has launched her couture fashion line with beautiful gowns and fresh new looks. The collection consists of ready-to-wear pieces sure to stun any runway! We think our necklaces make a great accessory for these high-end frocks, what do you think?

Be sure to check out both her furniture and fashion!

PEARLS for a fall wedding!

What a treat to style these BEAUTIFUL bridesmaids for the classy wedding of Chanel and Jan van Reenen. They had a September wedding with maids in long black gowns holding calla lilies. It was only appropriate to accessorize these ladies with stunning pearls in different varieties to enhance each ones individual style.

I dont know what could have been more timeless than that:)

Congratulations to Chanel and Jan!!!

Live Music and Jewelry Too!

Another hot day in Georgia. Yesterday we set-up a booth at the Wing and Rock festival in Woodstock, GA. You can see we made some changes to the decorations by adding some fresh cut flowers and a nice scented candle. I truly believe it's "the little things" that make all the difference!Even though it was extremely hot (about 95 degrees) everyone enjoyed the day and enjoyed shopping in the nice shaded tent. The little fan also helped by creating a bit of movement in the air... I conveniently stationed myself in front of it for most of the day:)
