Woman Owned Business That You Need To Know: Akola
Happy Monday my love and Happy International Women's Day, I hope that you are doing well and celebrate the women that are in your life.
I love a great piece of jewelry, I feel that a great piece of jewelry can really add something to your outfit. I could remember growing up my mother would always tell me that you're never really fully dressed until you have perfume on and a great piece of jewelry, and my goodness she was right. I was on the internet one day and I saw a really pretty bracelet from a brand that I never heard of before so I wanted to see more about this bracelet that I have fallen in love with and when I tell you guys that I fell more in love with the story of how the brand came about, I wouldn't be lying to you.

Akola is a globally-inspired jewelry brand, creating beautiful designs to lift up and champion women around the world. Our name means “she works” in a local Ugandan dialect. They provide life-changing job opportunities through vertically-integrated manufacturing, employing women in Uganda to make each Akola piece. We are here because of these women. We believe in them, and the power of all who live in the margins.
The Jasmine Hord Heart Charm Bracelet is stunning, I love all of the neutral colors with the bits of gold. This bracelet features a hand-carved, heart-shaped horn charm with a delicate crystal accent, it has recycled glass beads from Ghana, and Horn beads carved by hand in their Ugandan horn studio. This bracelet retails for $98.00.
