♡ Hi Loves! I’m thrilled to finally release the preview of this next Embellished Denim Collection! It took a lot of work to create, photograph and curate this many jackets for the web and amidst all of the Halloween orders I feel like I’ve been hibernating in the office (in the best way possible).
I’ve said this before, but I can’t stress enough how important it is to log on right as the jackets release if there’s one below you’ve fallen in love with. These are all one of a kind and they sell quickly, so best to make moves as soon as possible if you love any one particular style. In case you need a reminder, the collection hits the Wild & Free Jewelry website on Sunday, October 15th @ 5pm, California Pacific Time.
This time around I’ve also included some important notes on sizing, shipping and material sourcing at the bottom of this blog post. If you’re new to discovering the work I do for Wild & Free Jewelry be sure to take a peek at this information as it may include answers to some of your questions.
& now, for the moment many of you have been waiting for…
GIVEAWAY UPDATE!
This giveaway has resulted in one of my favorites so far as having the entrees accessible via my blog made it way easier to read and keep organized. There’s many of you that I want to write back to because what you wrote really resonated with me, but it’s looking like I’ll have to find the time after the Halloween rush. I sincerely appreciate the thoughtfulness everyone put into their entrees and thank you for creating a lovely spiral of positivity within my Wild & Free virtual world.
Out of the 288 entrees, I used a random number generator to select a winner, and the result is a participant named Jaclyn!
Congratulations Jaclyn! She’s been notified & e-mailed her embellished denim store credit. ♡
That’s it for news in embellished denim land. Scroll on to preview the twenty styles that will be hitting the website on Sunday! As always, if you have any questions feel free to reach out via e-mail or in the comment section at the very bottom of this post. xx

Wild & Free Signature Lace Embellished Elephant
For the October collection I decided to bring back the original way I used to sew the Embellished Elephant Jackets, with a lace overlay along the back panel. These creations are extra special and sparkling. Each style includes a subtle floral pearl detail along the front shoulder seam.

Beaded Afghan & Indian Sari
Whenever I look at photos like this I’m reminded of when I first started to make embellished denim nearly two years ago. At the time, all of the styles I designed looked this way. Since then, I’ve made a few adjustments and now work with salvaged Indian Sari fabric for the back panel, making the jackets a bit lighter than their past designs. The intricacy of these is hard to capture on camera and should you fall in love and secure one of the above two, you’ll be even more amazed when you see the jacket in person.
Both Styles – Size Small
Thai Floral
If you follow this blog closely, you know I’ve had my sights set on creating more of these as soon as I started dreaming up the October collection. There’s one photo from the first time I shot the Thai Floral Jackets that’s been reposted more times than I can count on Instagram and I receive rushes of e-mails and DMs about where to purchase the jacket that sold over a year ago. Finally, I have more jackets similar to that majestic photo! These are my absolute favorite and I hope you love them too!
