A small, dainty creature in Downtown L.A.

Bubbles, flowers, polka dots and vintage fabrics are what inspire LA-based designer Yoko, who creates handmade fabric-based accessories for little ones exclusively for online children’s boutique, Minikin. Yoko makes each piece by hand and you can see her love of soft pastel tones and beads in the Fun Button Necklace (above, left). With an adjustable tie closure and silk ribbon, Yoko’s necklaces are designed for daughters and mums to share.

There’s so much to love about Homako’s pieces – feminine yet understated, impeccable attention to simple details, original, timeless – but what AAB loves most is their casual appeal as they look best worn with a basic dress or tee. Homako is available at Minikin and you can visit their store here.
