Edas Makes Strides With Accessories
“We strive to make women feel beautiful, one accessory at a time,” says Edas designer Sade Mims. ”Each piece is made to be worn alone or paired, giving you a sense of customization and contrast.”
The sustainable accessories brand is known for designing feminine accessories just right for every eclectic woman. After launching her brand in 2013 starting with jewelry made by hand, she began creating her Yshaia, Maria handbags two years later. Mims has a strong interest in designing, creative directing, event planning and writing and has employed all of these skills when producing her own designs, artwork, and home accents.
