Biography of Tracie Pennypacker
    
As a young child, Tracie would often play dress up with her older sister,  throwing together different elements from past generations.  This holds true to her style today which is both eclectic and hip, mixing 1960s through 1990s fashions together.  Her fashions always set her apart from her classmates, but that never interfered with her quirky personality.
    
     Tracie is an outgoing, yet shy individual, who lives her life as a free spirit.  She drifted to California, by herself, and loved the ability to start anew.  This girl loves changes, while maintaining a lot from her Ohio roots.  She often reminisces about jukeboxes playing Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker, dancing around bonfires, smelling like a bonfire, long country roads lined with cornfields, and lightning bugs on long summer nights.
    
     She dislikes greed in society, and wants to support smaller companies.  She embraces sustainable fashion and has always been addicted to recycled jewelry and vintage clothing.  Her passion is to support those designers that put their heart on the line, give back to the community, and create from the heart.
    
     You can often find her staring out the window, reading Marc Bekoff, signing petitions, and writing letters for causes dear to her.  She might be shy in person, but she hides a strong bite... and story... in her creations.

 

 

  
Biography of LoveIt

Tired of having to layer necklaces to create something that stood out, Tracie started making her own.  With a couple of vintage chains and a bag of beads, given by friends, her signature style was born.  She started designing under the name, Un-Conventional, in Fall 2007.  She has since outgrown the original concept, and has made a brand out of LoveIt.

Each design is completely unique, and is given a name that represents its' story.  Tracie loves telling stories of her life situations and nature's, by adding rare antiques, bright vintage lucite beads, and earth elements to her jewelry.  In her collections, she uses 96% vintage materials.  Not only is it better for our environment, but the quality and rarity make for some amazing jewelry designs.

 LoveIt is to love your uniqueness.  LoveIt is to love the environment.  LoveIt is to love giving back while looking great.
