“If perfection does not exist, design it” -Diana Keinejad
Keinejad is a premium denim label designed and created locally in downtown Los Angeles by Norwegian-American designer Diana Keinejad. Keinejad merges European culture with edgy L.A. style. The brand speaks to fashion-forward millennials with modern denim fits without compromising on comfort. High-quality fabrics are sourced from around the world but cut and manufactured in the heart of the City of Angels.
Growing up in Norway, designer Diana Keinejad discovered her calling early in life, as her talents were first recognized by the prestigious Hempel Awards in China in 2003, when she was still a teenager. Her passion for perfection brought her international acclaim from the Saga Fur Awards in Denmark to the most sought after circles of Los Angeles.
Keinejad’s combination of European elegance and Los Angeles edginess have already created a cult-like following among tastemakers and the jetset. Without sacrificing her passion for luxury, each piece is handcrafted with the finest quality Japanese, Italian, and domestic materials found across the globe. Keinejad’s denim line is made in Los Angeles and sold exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue.

Wanderlust: it’s a magical, dreamlike feeling that tempts individuals to travel to new destinations. It’s also the theme centered around Liv Ballard’s jewelry collection, where globes and maps are amongst the designs for each unique piece.
Liv Ballard’s theme of wanderlust resembles the freedom of travel and promises collections “that satisfy both intellectually and aesthetically.” Each piece is a “statement of confidence” that embodies “sensual, sculptural and playful” characteristics.
Handcrafted in Rome, each globe pendant, which is part of Ballard’s permanent collection, consists of 18-karat gold. They’re decorated with precious jewels such as diamonds, emeralds or sapphires. The globes even spin on their axis, a feature unique to Liv Ballard that adds to the sculptural and playful look Ballard wants to achieve.
Aside from the aesthetic of Liv Ballard’s jewelry, each individual piece tells a story. Whether it is historical or mythological, Ballard’s jewelry provides meaning; and more than that, they’re a part of something bigger than itself rather than a simple accessory to a trendy look.
If you are lucky enough to find yourself at the upcoming Golden Globe Awards in January, going clad in one of Liv Ballard’s globe pendants would be a perfect touch.
You can purchase Liv Ballard’s collections at Saks Fifth Ave or on her website: www.livballard.com.
Dressing for the Fourth of July is an art form that requires a sense of style, subtly, and most importantly patriotism. Downtown is here to help you prepare for this Independence Day by keeping it classy and avoiding the tacky.
Saks Fifth Avenue has announced its move to Lower Manhattan and it seems that Nordstrom will be following suit and joining them in the heart of New York City: Downtown.
Real estate sources say they have been looking in Lower Manhattan, but have not been able to find the amount of square footage needed for the luxury retail store.
With Brookfield already 95% full and the Westfield World Trade Center with limited remaining space, sources are unsure where they will be located.
Some possible locations that have been listed for the store are the former American Stock Exchange Site on Trinity Place, the space across from the New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street and the Waterside Mall.
Wherever it ends up, we still have a while to wait. The first ever Nordstrom, announced this summer, will be opening in 2018 on West 57th Street, and sources believe the Downtown version will not be complete until after.
With the future move of these two huge businesses, it has become clear that Downtown will be the new mecca for luxury shopping.
