Summer Giving

                                                       
                      Finding the perfect gift is sometimes stressful but not at Vitae. Here are some easy steps you can follow to find that excellent gift. The first step is to give a heartwarming gift with a sentimental print from Esparto. The next step is to find the product, and you can always count on us for the perfect fit. Displayed in the photos are Decadence's leather cuffs, J. Lovan bow ties, Acanthus children wear, and Esparto's necklaces and prints. These are just some of the many gift ideas we have here at Vitae!

Bring Flowers to the Weekend BBQ!

These outfits are great for spending time outside enjoying the sun. The floral top is trending this Spring, along with the maxi skirt. We are not in the California sun, but we can pretend with this Cali/floral dress. Accessories is a must this season, both outfits are paired with necklaces to accent the colors in the floral prints. With these items at Vitae you can show up to events fashion forward this Spring!

Spoon Jewelry by Dank Artistry - Serving up Style

Spoon rings are a perennial favorite here at Vitae, and we are pleased to carry the work of Dan Kemp who hand makes the pieces individually right here in Iowa.  His line Dank Artistry is distinct in style and craftsmanship - there is an heirloom quality to his work .  They are beautiful and affordable.

Cover Story...An Apron With Options

Just in time for warm weather activities...we have a pretty wrap from Trouves Home that can take you from BBQ to the beach, the boulevard and beyond.  As the illustrated hangtag implies, there are many uses for this versatile garment - definitely worth packing for weekend getaways and a thoughtful gift for Mom's Day.
