Known for their travel-inspired accessories, twin sisters Elizabeth and Kathryn Fortunato have quickly become the favorite go-to designers in Austin. Their spring collection was inspired by Mexican artist Frida Kahlo and by La Casa Azul, the home Kahlo shared with painter Diego Rivera. The collection incorporates Mexican-inspired craftwork and artisanal details in the form of small leather goods like zip pouches and sunglass cases. Emblazoned with motifs like palms, pyramids, geometric stones, Aztec-inspired ribbons, and cacti, both the leather goods and the signature jewelry are perfect for a south-of-the-border or South Lamar jaunt.
