    Diana Staats

    Hi welcome to RebelTide, where Diana creates her own handcrafted jewelry and collects vintage clothing. Diana, along with her dog and significant other, live in their van located in Venice Beach, California. Their van, a mobile haven offers them the freedom to travel extensively along the pacific coast to various beaches, surf spots and skate parks.

    Diana's jewelry collection includes striking statement necklaces, rings, earrings, bracelets, and pendants, all aimed at instilling confidence and empowerment. She believes in the transformative strength of self-expression, and each handcrafted piece is carefully created to help customers display their unique individuality.

    Diana's passion extends beyond jewelry to collecting vintage clothing, including denim pieces and T-shirts. Each item in her collection is sourced locally in the Los Angeles area or during her road trips around America. Diana has an eye for T-shirts that reflect her fascination with local culture, old cars, the open road, freedom and adventure, evoking the essence of retro Americana. The spirit of an American road trip is evident in most of her vintage finds.

    What sets Rebel Tide apart is not just Diana's dedication to craftsmanship, but also the unique story behind it. As a nomadic entrepreneur, she derives motivation from her journey, explorations, and the countless experiences and memories that she has made along the way. As Diana travels, she gathers materials, clothing and inspiration, infusing them into her distinct, handmade artwork while on the road.

    These moments serve as creative fuel for Diana, inspiring her to design accessories that capture the essence of her journeys. Each piece she makes reflects the feelings, stories, and adventures that have shaped her paths. However, these experiences aren't just hers; they extend to the items she carefully collects along the way. Every vintage find, every curated piece, echoes the spirit of exploration and discovery. Diana's creations don't just mirror her adventures; they're a constant nudge for individuals to live a life that's authentically theirs. Let these accessories always remind customers that their moments of inspiration, emotion, and adventure are ready to unfold, pushing them to follow a path that's true to their own unique story.

    Join Diana on this journey as she invites you to discover the power and authenticity of her handcrafted creations, inspired by different corners of the world. Embrace your individuality and adorn yourself with her crafted pieces that embody the spirit of wanderlust and the joy of discovery, alongside her curated collection of vintage clothing. Each piece, whether handmade or collected, reflects Diana's adventures and serves as a tangible connection to the places she's explored, urging you to embrace your own unique story.
