Filis can custom make jewelry upon request.  Ranging from a variety of earing styles, including clip on earings, necklaces, bracelets, anklets, bookmarks; just a wide variety of one-of-a kind fashionable accessories. 

Each piece of jewelry includes a written description of the meaning of the stones.

Eliza B.

Eliza B. sandals are another fashionable shoe found at market.  Eliza B. shoes are custom made, which makes ordering and delivery about an 8 week process.  The wait is worth it!!  We currently only carry the Eliza B. shoes in a cork wedge and small variety between patent leather straps or designer cloth straps.  Because cork is a renewable resource, the cork wedges are eco-friendly.  They are naturally water resistant!

The creator of the Eliza B. shoes is none other than a young women named Eliza B.  Her facinating story of how she created her own shoe line is an inspiration to all.

Onesole

August 18th, 2009

                                                      

Featuring for the first time in Sun Wind and Rain…shoes!!  Filis discovered Onesole shoes at the Atlanta Market in January 2009 as she desperately needed a comfortable pair of shoes.  Between extensive walking, hilly terrain, and a broken toe, Filis was in need of a stylish, yet comfortable shoe.  Luckily for Filis and Sun Wind and Rain, she stumbled upon…”The Original Interchangeable Shoe” that is perfect for traveling and everyday use! 

Dominique McClain Barteet is the creator of Onesole Shoes.  She worked as a pharmacist standing 12 hours a day and needed a comfortable shoe that was fashionable.  She invented Onesoles with Soft-Step insoles and interchangeable tops, which also enables her luggage to be lighter through her extensive traveling.  She combined fashion, comfort, versatility, and convenience. 

Onesoles come in a variety of heel heights that will suit your style!  We also carry slap stoppers, which silent the shoe from the familiar “flip flop” sound sandals can make and insoles which add extra comfort and help keep your feet dry.  Come in and try on these unique shoes!

 

Visit the Onesole website for a look into all the varieties in their interchangeable tops and soles.
