Blue Bee's 10th Birthday Bash - Miracle Icons

Blue Bee is going to have their final birthday bash celebrating 10 years of bringing the most amazing fashions to the local Santa Barbarians on Saturday October 23, 2010. There will be some amazing designers celebrating with owners John, Marty and their loyal local customers that have supported them all these years.

For the next week I will be highlighting the designers, reps, gifts, giveaways and labels that will be there during Saturday's celebration. I am also going to introduce you to some of the loyal Blue Bee associates who's super rad fashion knowledge, passion, and hard work along side John and Marty have influenced and molded what you wear.

I begin with one of the most giving and humble Jewelry Designers, her work, and the Senior Bee out on the boutique floor who shares her humble vibe.

Miracle Icons was created from a gift of spirituality, support and love. New York Designer Mary Jo Payne will be holding a Trunk Show at Blue Bee Men on Saturday the 23. She will personally be there to talk about her awesome beaded bracelets and charmed necklaces.

When you buy a Miracle Icons necklace you will get a crazy GIFT that makes it lika BOGO!!! A free bracelet! Amazing. Did you know Mary Jo hand makes all of her jewelry....just her. Man, I can not wait to meet this amazing woman.

Speaking of... so who is the Senior Bee wearing those bracelets? Meet Eric, he is not only one of the most amazing denim experts at Blue Bee Men, he is a solid stylist, and super rad dude.... he is also our model for every product shot on the Blue Bee Men's website. Recognize him now? Thank you Eric .... everyone loves you ya know!

Miracle Icons - Something for the Soul

In the beginning stages 10 years ago, Miracle Icons Owner and self taught Jewelry Designer, Mary Jo Pane responded to the world around her by offering support and love through a gift .... charm of St. Anthony. Beginning Mary Jo's expression of her belief in miracles and spiritual strength.

. “I see a lot of commercial junk, and so it’s always refreshing to come across a vendor who really has thought carefully about their intent and design,” says W Accessories Market Editor Beitressa Mandelbaum, who first featured Miracle Icons in the magazine’s June 2009 issue. “I think there’s always a need in the market for a strong fashion accessory, but it’s great when you can mix that aesthetic with something subtle and personal.”

Miracle Icons is now Blue Bee's most sought after jewelry for Men both in our Santa Barbara Store as well as Online. ASKMEN.COM comments on Miracle Icons uniqueness and what it brings to men's fashion and jewelry

"The Evil Eye Bracelet is rooted in a centuries-old belief that the talisman can ward off stares of envy that bring bad luck. Combined with wooden Buddha beads, it’s like wearing a box of Lucky Charms on your wrist. Fortunately, this spiritual pairing actually looks good and you don’t have to dig through a bucket of trinkets at some flea market to get your hands on it. Like the one-of-a-kind find at a bazaar, creations from Miracle Icons aren’t mass produced."

It is nothing short of a miracle that this New York woman's need to help and support those around her has turned in to a Jewelry line with a cult following, changed lives, soothed souls and seen on the wrists of Hard working Joe's to Rock Stars on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine. Quoted from Miracle Icons website bio: “It’s for people who are looking for something to make them feel good, better, protected, in touch, whatever it may be.”

Mary Jo is truly one of the sweetest and supportive women I have come to know over the web through Blue Bee. I invite you to read her story on the Miracle Icons website and check out what Blue Bee has to offer for both Men and Women. Her Jewelry is definitely more than trendy adornment, it is truly an expression of belief in love.
