The designer will debut her newest collection, "Summer Romance 2013," and offer 10 percent to 15 percent discounts on past collections at select retailers.
Chou is known for her sea-inspired jewelry and accessories, incorporating elements such as vintage Swarovski crystals, lemon chrysoprase and rose quartz gemstones. Her collection features earrings, bracelets and necklaces that range from $132 to $240.
Tiffany Chou jewelry collections have been featured in publications such as Lucky, Marie Claire, People and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, and have been worn by celebrities including Selena Gomez, Brooke Burke and Maria Sharapova.
