Wear the Brand
By Krista Lucas Wynn
Barrel racing and fashion seem to go hand in hand. The western industry is quickly becoming a go-to for trend setting clothing, jewelry and accessories. A relatively new brand called The Bijoux Fab, created by Pascale Sylvain, has caught the eye of cowgirls, equestrians and business women alike.
Sylvain began making handmade, genuine jewelry in 2011, but she never expected it to become a full-time endeavor. Though she has always had a creative mind, she did not necessarily start out in the world of fashion.
“I grew up in Canada, in a little town called Taschereau, which is a very isolated area of Quebec,” Sylvain said. “My dad taught me to ride horses, and we would normally ride May to September because more than likely after that we got snow. After I was done with my bachelor’s degree, I started buying cheap western jewelry on Ebay because we did not have any and eventually decided to do my own.”
