Participating in:
Designer: Sara Bouvier
Girls Night Out Designer Since: 2006

 How did you become a designer?
When I was traveling abroad, my father encouraged me to purchase some beads at an open market and create some pieces for him to sell at his store in the Adirondacks. They sold out soon after, and this gave me the encouragement I needed to continue doing what I love.

 
What’s your inspiration?
My father is an antique dealer, so I often find inspiration in pieces I have collected from him over the years. I also find inspiration from my great grandmother. She always wore brightly colored costume jewelry, and my new line for fall is a tribute to her style.
 
What’s your hometown?
Saratoga, NY
 
If you had to pick a favorite design from your collection, what would it be?
My favorite design from my collections is the Gold Keishi Pearl and Coral Necklace. I love this piece because it was the first piece I designed. It’s unique, looks great with a crisp white blouse, and reminds me of summering on the Cape.
 
What are you wearing right now?
Frye Campus boots, brown tights, and a silk shift dress from Banana Republic—biker chic!
