January. The days are short, the skies are gray. The joy and excitement that once filled the air comes to a lull, quietly escaping alongside the holiday season. Wanderlust hits. We want to get out. Away, away, to somewhere warm. We dream of a place with sun-filled days and jacket-less nights. Read More

Sneak Peek: January 2014 With Sasha Pivovarova
In my 4 years at Free People I’ve seen some pretty amazing catalogs… but to this day one of my all time favorites is still our April 2011 book featuring Sasha Pivovarova.

What’s even cooler about this book is that it was shot at Sasha’s beautiful home, by her husband Igor Vishnyakov, giving us an intimate glimpse into her home life and fascinating artwork (the illustrations in the catalog were done by Sasha herself!).
