ABOUT TARINA Tarina began her fashion career as a Model living in Europe for several years while studying fashion history and jewelry design in her free time. While in Paris she started making jewelry on the side and soon stylists were borrowing her beaded necklaces and sculpted rings to use on shoots. Upon returning to Los Angeles she continued making jewelry while pursuing her second passion and career as a makeup artist. At this time she met her future husband and business partner Alfonso Campos and together they founded the TARINA TARANTINO brand out of their tiny apartment in West Hollywood. Soon her collections were being carried in the best boutiques and department stores around the globe and featured in countless magazines, T.V Shows, Red Carpet and films. Tarina’s imaginative and playful spirit combined with her love of fashion, music, art and Los Angeles has inspired every piece in her collections. She has collaborated with such iconic brands as Sephora, Hello Kitty, Barbie, Anna Sui, Betsey Johnson, Warner Bros., and KidRobot. Her pieces have been collected and worn by celebrities like Selena Gomez, Kelly Osbourne, Miley Cyrus, Paris Hilton, Cameron Diaz, Elle Fanning, and Mindy Kaling. Her first book, The Sparkle Factory, invites her readers into her colorful world where she shares her story and jewelry making style.
