The Accessory of Choice for a Voyage on the Water

A boat trip is often an all day affair, with fun, sun and a stop at the marina by the end of the day. Michelle Farmer’s Leather & Pearls collection is the perfect accessory choice for a voyage on the water. The Kathryn piece can be tied and looped around the neck in different variations to add glamour and style to a bathing suit and cover-up. The Kathryn features four pearls in a choice of white, peach, pink or chocolate brown on a leather strap available in rust, chocolate brown, natural and black. The pearls can be worn conveniently down the back during a high speed spurt on the water, and then tied to the front during sandbar relaxation. Many boaters like to dock at a marina or waterfront restaurant for cocktails at the end of a long day, and the Kathryn is enviable accessory. The Leather & Pearls collection is effortlessly chic, with understated seaside elegance and transitions effortlessly from a day on the water to late-night dinner and dancing.
