LUNA LUNA Homebase: Agoura Hills, CA The pastel tones deepened with a jolt of teal, the judicious use of metallic, and lovely specialty tulles and embroidery give Heidi Maria Schwarck's spring line the shimmering quality of beach glass.

The simplicity of the top contrasts nicely with the dress's richly embroidered lace overlay. (Fits 3 months to 12 years; collection $15-$65) Tel: 818 865-2002 E-mail: Contact@lunalunacopenhagen.com
