Artist spotlight
When you're in Chicago, travel like a woman reborn and bring home something that tells a story. A piece of Chicago's creative spirit, like the Bruce earrings from Beaded Seed by Ronea.
Chicago's Creative: Ronea
There's a woman behind this black-owned travel-friendly handmade jewelry. I want you to meet Ronea and her boutique is Beaded Seed. I believe in supporting black jewelers worldwide, especially those creating pieces as deliberate as the journey we take. Her earrings are light weight, designed for everyday wear, and deliver just the right pop to elevate your travel outfits.
If you're looking for black women jewelry makers to follow, start with Ronea. Her pieces carry beauty, story, soul. Everything we believe travel should hold too.
Those earrings are called Tart. Her best-seller.
Influencer Spotlight
Sue
To know Sue is to witness travel as ritual. Intentional. Observant. Deeply felt. A Caribbean-born creative force and my dearest friend, Sue is quietly redefining what it means to move through the world with both style and purpose.
As a photographer, she captures not just landscapes but raw and real travel moments. The kind you can feel in your chest. Whether it's perfect symmetry in a temple arch or the fleeting stillness before a market wakes, Sue sees what most of us miss. I've watched her, most times with saintly patience, wait for the chaos to clear, the crowd to shift, the light to fall just right. Then, like a well-timed whisper, she takes the shot.
Traveling with her has taught me more about composition and light than any course ever could. If you're new to photography or simply craving more meaning in the way you document your journey, her work will move you.
Feminine energy travel inspiration is Sue. Follow her on IG, @sue_b_honey05.
