Oftentimes, the piercing parties are booked by family friends of the Houston-reared sisters, who are both moms. With refreshments, a nurse on-site and the chance to select from 14-karat gold, diamond and fine jewelry in place of a mall kioskвЂ™s temporary studs, generations come together, a mother marking her daughterвЂ™s first piercing by getting a second or third hole. They also welcome shoppers from 6 months old to great-grandmothers for private piercing appointments. The showroom gives Roane the space to work intimately on one-off custom pieces, such as a pendant engraved with handwriting from a late grandmotherвЂ™s letter and other heirlooms - вЂњsomething thatвЂ™s always with them,вЂќ says Fitzpatrick. вЂњI think people are willing to invest in jewelry thatвЂ™s meaningful,вЂќ Roane says. Over the next decade, through seasonal markets and pop-ups and e-commerce charitable initiatives - Reese Witherspoon bought a necklace during a campaign that raised more than $30,000 for Hurricane Dorian relief for Bahamians recently LeMel donated proceeds to Uvalde - the founders say their audience matured into fine jewelry as they did. Shortly after, Roane started her own jewelry line - the siblings each honed their love of jewelry working at Charde boutique in high school and in college - before they merged the brands. вЂњI could be wearing 20 or I could be wearing two.вЂќДЇitzpatrick founded LeMel - a palindrome of her nickname - in 2010 after taking classes at Otis College of Art & Design in Los Angeles. When stacking modern-day tennis bracelets and birthstone rings or hoops in varying widths, climber studs and gemstone huggies that the pair wear from lobe to cartilage, вЂњthere are no rules,вЂќ Fitzpatrick says. вЂњJewelry, especially, is just easier to buy in person, itвЂ™s really nice to see how it sparkles and how it fits you вЂ¦ itвЂ™s been a game changer,вЂќ says Fitzpatrick. The IRL interaction helps the designers educate their customer on mixing feminine gold and gold-filled strands and chunky paperclip chains adorned with evil eyes or fine jewelry charms with curb and snake chains, all offered in varying lengths. Each LeMel piece is designed to never take off.
