Before settling back into her native Los Angeles, designer Beatrice Valenzuela lived all over the world gathering endless inspiration for her eponymous line of handmade shoes and her jewelry lines Concha and Alcatraz. Her signature slides and sandals are heavily influenced by Mexican and Mediterranean styles that embrace the beauty and simplicity found anywhere nature and culture intertwine. The jewelry side takes influence from natural shapes and fibers. Now residing in a beautiful bungalow perched above Echo Park with her partner Ramsey Conder and their two children, she utilizes their home as both a dwelling and workspace, and a repository of inspiration for her shoes, jewelry and bag designs.
