The women who wear Adea are a diverse and exciting bunch of ladies and we are always curious to learn more about each of them. Once a month we highlight an Adea customer and share their personal story and style sense with you. We hope you enjoy reading about them as much as we do.
This month we interviewed Christine Tieri, mother, wife, and owner of smith&jones, an idea agency. Read the full interview here:
I am a 40-something wife, mother, volunteer, mentor, business owner and certified brand strategist…I think that about sums it up! As the owner of an idea agency, it is important for me to be comfortable and stylish to reflect my creativity while at the same time being buttoned up and professional to convey my business side. Living in the Northeast means dressing for all kinds of weather, I love my Adea pieces because they are versatile no matter the season…and no matter the occasion!
My personal style is….I never think I have a particular style, but whenever I shop with friends they say, "this is so you!"
My personal styling trick is … a little swipe of bronzer right underneath the collarbone
I’d be lost without….gel polish, the regular stuff chips in a day
The best place I’ve ever traveled to is…Cape Split, Nova Scotia - breathtaking
My favorite Adea piece is…my black scoop-neck, 3/4 sleeve bodysuit. I haven't worn a body suit since Jr High, but I love it, b/c it's like a second skin (and stays tucked in!)
Flash round:
Morning person or night owl? morning
Coffee or tea? coffee
Cats or dogs? big cats, small dogs
Beach or mountains? beach!!

I just read an article that sounded – to me at least – like “a canary in a coal mine” or an early warning of danger. This piece, written by Joe Pompeo, appeared in the May 2020 issue of Vanity Fair magazine with the title “The British Tabloid Invasion” and a subtitle that read, “How the Daily Mail is conquering American gossip.”

Apparently the good old U.S. is a nation of “not great” sleepers. Really? And I thought I was the only one! According to a recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention it was revealed that one out of three Americans are chronically sleep-deprived. Yikes!
I think we’re all taken by the incredible mystique of the famous French fashion house, Hermès that has been with us for two centuries and is still owned and operated by the same family. From its beginnings in fine equestrian leather goods, they are – in the tumultuous year 2020 – best known for their handbags and many other items.
My image of Hermès has always been rarified products at equally rarified prices so imagine my surprise when I recently received a very stylish publication of theirs in the mail.
