"Sisterhood is many things. It's a warm smile on a cold and rainy day, a friendly hug, a cheerful hello. It's all that a good and lasting friendship is, only better. It's treasured. It's sacred. It's knowing that there will always be someone there for you. It's dreams shared, and goals achieved. It's counting on others and being counted on. It is real." -Anonymous

About Manic Trout Manic Trout pieces have appeared in over 50 magazines, including Redbook, Seventeen, Audrey, Your Prom, CosmoGirl and Life & Style. Their designs have also made it to the small screen on Gossip Girl. Locally and hand made: Manic Trout creates looks that are colorful and unique! Founder, jeweler, designer and independent artist behind all of Manic Trout’s handmade pieces is Sierra Bailey. Her slogan: “Jewelry for Life’s Manic Moments” truly describes the way her jewelry can make any outfit perfectly polished for an “on-the-go” girl.
About Sierra Sierra became inspired to form Manic Trout after years of collecting fragments and baubles from flea markets and antique shops. All those bits and pieces she had been gathering became the catalyst for a new line of jewelry that combines vintage and modern elements in exciting new ways. Manic Trout is the culmination of combining the old and the new, the sought after and the collected elements she discovered and amassed over the years during her travels. Mixing the romantic flair of vintage with colorful whimsy is her signature. For lovers of unique, handmade jewelry, Sierra makes sure that everything old is indeed new again. Having received her BFA from Syracuse University in computer graphics, her creative platform morphed into jewelry in 2003 and she began her Manic Trout online store in 2006. Her blog, Her Daily Muse describes her design inspirations and life in Austin, Texas. !
