Introducing: GILI Charm Collection

Feminine, fun, and delicate silhouettes make up this charming new classic collection!  These easy to wear pieces are perfect for layering with your personal Anna Beck favorites.

I fell in love with the idea of adding new life to vintage silhouettes from the Anna Beck archives.

The GILI Charm Collection can be used to dress up a casual look for daytime, or provide an extra touch of style, when layered, for a more dramatic look!

GILI CHARM COLLECTION AVAILABLE MAY 17th!

MEET THE ANNA BECK TEAM:
LARA RAMOS

As a member of the Anna Beck Sales Team, Lara has the exciting and rewarding job of traveling throughout the Mid-Atlantic region showing the latest Anna Beck collections and supporting our retailers in the area. She is passionate & enthusiastic about the brand and everything she does, which is immediately apparent when you first meet her! Lara is also a beloved expert when it comes to beauty must-haves, thanks to her popular blog, The Glossarie. There you’ll find her candid thoughts and honest reviews on all the latest tips and products worth checking out!

Fav AB pieces:
I fall in love with the Gili Long Drop Stone Earrings every season (currently available in Turquoise). I get so many compliments on them. I wear the Lapis Rectangle Ring all the time because it's such a stunner—every time it catches my eye I think that it looks like a treasure found at an estate sale. My favorite everyday piece is the Large Elephant Pendant from the Bali collection. It's such an outfit maker when I need that finishing touch, plus an elephant with the trunk up means good luck - and who can argue with that?

What inspires you?
Women who are comfortable in their own skin. I can't take my eyes off of girls who are bright and happy, with their own unique sense of style. I envy it!

Favorite place to travel:
My husband is from Portugal and visiting the village where his family's from is one of my favorite places that I've ever been.

Words to live by:
“Be pretty if you can, be witty if you must, but be gracious if it kills you.” - Elsie de Wolfe

What can you NOT live without?
The correct answer here would be my husband, right? So yes, definitely him. But truth be told, I am a major beauty addict. I always joke that I would grab my makeup bag first in a fire. (Ok, maybe my makeup bag and my wedding photos...)

Secret skill or hobby/past-time:
My beauty blog, The Glossarie, is my little passion project. Testing and reviewing beauty products could be a full-time job! I'm so grateful for all of the joy and opportunity it has brought me over the last four years.

Why I love Anna Beck: 
It's absolutely timeless and I love that every piece is unique because it's handmade. I'm always proud to wear it - and it makes me feel like a million bucks!

Pair turquoise pieces from the latest GILI collection by Anna Beck. You can update your own closet to welcome in this vibrant tone & warm, sunny weather!

This collection was inspired by my love of turquoise and the tranquility of the majestic Bali oceans & beaches. The calming, uplifting color is believed to promote peace and healthy energy.

Meet the Anna Beck Team:
Eileen Seissen

Eileen is the friendly and fun customer service representative. She is the type of employee every company desires to have on the team; she always has a smile on her face, is hard working and has a great sense of humor. Everyone in the office absolutely loves working with her!

WHO IS Eileen?
“I was a swimmer from the age of 4 to 22. I decided to hang up my cap and goggles after finishing my college career at UCLA with Personal Bests in all of my events. I now practice Capoeira, a Brazilian Martial art that has it all: music, culture, dance, martial art, family.  Capoeira has become a huge part of my life for the past 4 years. It’s given me a family here in LA and took me to Brazil and back! I enjoy throwing myself head first into cultures to learn as much as possible about different people & places! My biggest adventure to date was an 11-month volunteer trip to Brazil.  I arrived speaking only a handful of words, but left talking like a “Carioca,” a native from Rio De Janiero.”

Why Anna Beck?
“The people here are amazing, and being able to watch everything unfold is so much fun. We all have different personalities and have different passions, and we are able to express these through the variety of Anna Beck pieces that Becky has designed.” 

Favorite place to travel?  Hope to travel to?
“My favorite place I’ve been to was Brazil.  I hope to travel to Costa Rica, South Africa, India…really anywhere and everywhere!”
