I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN DRAWN TO MIXING
DIFFERENT DESIGN MEDIUMS WHETHER ITS
ARCHITECTURE, FASHION, OR JEWELRY. BYBOE
IS ABOUT THE PURE, NATURAL ELEGANCE
THAT COMES FROM THAT MELDING. IT’S ALSO
ABOUT INSTINCT-FROM THE WAY IT IS
DESIGNED TO THE WAY THAT IT’S WORN
Founded in 2000, by boe began as an intimate retail shop (originally named Annika Inez) on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, which also served as Annika’s workshop. The designer’s Scandinavian roots and diverse creative experiences-including interior design studies at Parsons and an apprenticeship with a couture dressmaker in Dubai-immediately yielded something altogether provocative and new in the contemporary jewelry market. Along with Annika’s uncommon take on architectural and nature-inspired pendants, cuffs, and earrings, Philippe’s mutually complementary professional experiences-including marketing studies at New York University and extensive production work and jewelry-making abroad-helped quickly grow the brand: Soon after opening their boutique, the Salames began expanding by boe with a larger retail outpost in SoHo and the establishment of a new wholesale jewelry business.
You love the colors of summer. Blues, greens and pinks that are light and airy- you know the drill. Fittingly one of the newest summer dresses at Sweet Samba’s boutique is a watery blue, and not to mention, super cute. With an empire waist and ruching throughout the skirt, this little number will not only show off your bronzed shoulders, but a hint of decolletage. And when the breeze blows later in the night, wrap a colorful pashmina around your shoulders to combat your chill or loop a summer scarf ’round your neck. But whatever way you choose to rock it, we’re sure you’ll look hot. And that goes without saying.
Normally the summertime is meant to show off those toned legs and arms in something short. Well why not leave a little to the imagination by not giving it all away too fast. Remember what mom said when you were in high school. Well the same applies now-leave a little something to the imagination. Follow in the footsteps of celebs like Paris Hilton, Anne Hathaway and Jessica Simpson who love long dresses, and don this fabulous long purple cotton dress. So you can now say you actually did something that mom told you to do. Well kind of. You didn’t hire that personal trainer at L.A. Fitness for flabby arms did you? Show them off.
Into the Wild
Want to look like you zipped to an exotic place for a weekend jaunt and picked up some clothes in a land glamorous and far away? Or just look like Lauren Conrad from The Hills? Well stop by Sweet Samba’s boutique and pick up this blue, black, brown, yellow and red Ikat top and pair it with some cute little black shorts or some skinny leg colored jeans. Perhaps even try it out over another Ikat print dress to, you know, spice it up a little. In case you haven’t already.
Hey baby
Nobody puts baby in the corner, according to Johnny in Dirty Dancing. Well no one puts you in the corner either. Especially in that fantastic embroidered top, we just got in at Sweet Samba’s boutique. Embroidery is huge this summer and has been all over the runways of Bryant Park (New York Fashion Week). So even though we know you’re not a slave to trends, you like to be in the know. So scoop up on of these tops and everyone will be asking, where in the world did she get that?
Living it up once in a while like a celeb is fine, but dressing like one all the time. Ahem we can’t afford that. But lately the one shoulder dress has often been seen on many celebs. And obviously it is flattering on most body types because we have seen it on everyone from the star of Twilight, Kristen Stewart to Miley Cyrus to Kim and Khole Kardashian. And obviously the beautiful First Lady Michelle Obama kicked off this trend as she wore the up and coming designer Jason Wu’s white one shoulder dress to the inauguration ball this year. As a matter of fact, Wu will be the honoree at Fashion Cares here in Atlanta this August. But back to the point, one shoulder dresses are hot right now.
Michelle Obama jump started the trend of One Shonder Dress this year and the rest is History.
So hot, in fact we have the black one shoulder dress in our boutique similar to the Kardashian girls’ dresses. We are betting they paid a pretty penny for their frocks but ours’ are only $60. So you know you read U.S. Weekly and follow what everyone wears, so why not swing by and pick up some essentials at our boutique. It’s not like you constantly have to worry that the paparazzi is following you.

Sweet Samba will be offering organic facials from Eminence Organics. For half a century, Eminence has been refining and improving the formulas for their spa products, using nature’s own ingredients to enhance and assist in the body’s own rejuvenating and healing functions.
Originally, the herbs, fruits and vegetables used to develop the Eminence product line were brought from small Hungarian villages, or hand picked and processed from our own gardens. Today these natural ingredients continue to be grown in organic conditions in Hungary in our exclusive farms. Natural ingredients from the earth and seas, such as: linden and calendula plants, jasmine and rose petals, rosehip, yarrow, green foods, nettles, paprika, natural thermal mineral spring waters, plus a variety of botanical extracts give rise to a beautiful, clear, balanced, revitalized, and naturally glowing complexion, visible results that only nature can produce.
Eminence ingredients are free of parabens and other harsh chemicals and are guaranteed to be 100% natural to ensure that Sweet Samba’s clients see and feel the dramatic results associated with the Eminence line. Eminence products have never been tested on animals, and our packaging is 100% recyclable.
Our skin acts as a barrier between us and the outside world, but sometimes being a barrier is a dirty job. Dirt, smoke, pollution and the sun can wreak havoc on our complexion, leaving it looking dull, aged and sallow. Facials help to rejuvenate the skin by rehydrating, exfoliating, and deep cleansing your hard working skin. Our licensed estheticians work with you to identify your skin’s needs and properly care for them with organic products that help your face defy time.
Not only do facials cleanse and restore natural moisture, they also act as a preventative measure to premature aging by minimizing blemishes, dry skin, wrinkles and acne. Facials also increase circulation and improve stress levels, helping our skin’s true beauty shine, even through all of the stuff we put it through. To fully reap the anti-aging benefits of facials, it is advisable to begin receiving them every other month.
Organic skin care is natural beauty you can see and feel…
The Eminence Organic Skin Care line offers a truly exquisite experience with products that are so natural that you can see the fresh fruit pulps, seeds, and smell the real herbs. The philosophy is simple and natural, and it fits with the modern need of finding a natural skin care solution.
