The Grand Canyon

Quite an impressive hole in the ground to say the least. "Majestic, Mesmerizing, Vast and Simply Beautiful" These are words that I overhead a group of elementary kids saying when asked to describe The Grand Canyon while looking over the South Rim, on what was an obvious school field trip. Wow, we never got to do something like THAT when I was in school. 









Inspired  by the canyon colors is the Spicy Senorita Dress at $69.00 you can't beat it. 

Inspired by the Native Indians of the Canyon. This Tribal Pattern Sweater is great to add to a dress and boots like above. But, equally eye-pleasing over leggings and a T. Not to mention comfy comfy.


Sometimes the Canyon has a thin layer of smoke and mist at sunset, from the campers and the controlled burns. It looks hazy and mystical and still very beautiful.  Above is an equally beautiful shirt dress in smoke grey, inspired by the look of the Canyon. This dress can be glammed up or casual, whatever you feel like. The material has a sheen which makes your skin glow.



Oh and these shoes. How mod and in-style. These color-blocked shoes  are inspired by the many Ravens that fly high above and through-out the canyon. Slick Black Ravens that have shades of grey and pewter. Native to the Canyon, these birds are also beautiful in their own way.


This beautiful and highly intrique piece is inspired by the beautiful hand-made Indian jewelry--also taking the colors of the canyon in to account. Check out this Sierra necklace and other items at http://www.simplyhomeltd.com/.




Amazing that the Colorado River did this, more than 3800 million years worth of work. 






The Canyon can be mysterious and sultry also.  Seeing the shadows and the ravens against the color of the Canyon is quite breathtaking.  Contrasts of slience with hushes of beauty--this can inspire those days when you feel like keeping everything to yourself.  However, the Grand Canyon is so surreal and unbelieveable, I had to share it with you.
