Our latest lookbook, “The Road Less Traveled,” is one of my favorites to date. There’s so much to take in from each image that I find myself looking at them again and again, letting my eyes travel from the clothes and jewelry to the hair and makeup, and the beautifully printed backdrops, taking my time to soak it all in. The girl in this lookbook is a bohemian wanderer, with stories as rich and as textured as the images themselves. Read More

It’s so easy this time of year to get caught up in thinking about what you want… it’s the season of gift giving and we’re surrounded by treasures and temptations. Read More
Nothing makes me happy quite like giving a gift. It lights me up to see someone react to a gift I’ve given them, and to see them realize that I put thought and care into selecting it. I like sharing a little joy this way. Read More
When you give a girl lingerie as a gift her face lights up, it’s because it is so pretty and delicate. Right now I’m in love with our Single Hipster Gift Package.

His controversial work consists of collages of paintings and illustrations, his style is hugely influenced by the employment he had at a tattoo parlor after high school, which is evident in every single piece of his work.

With all the hustle surrounding the holiday season, sometimes I completely forget how important it is to take time out to clear my head, relax, and unwind. When I don’t do this, I feel stressed, anxious, and overwhelmed.

As winter sinks in, I normally long for a vacation somewhere warm and tropical…but this year, I’ve got cabins on my mind. Cozy winter cabins that can only be reached by dirt roads, with no electricity and a fireplace to keep me warm. Frosty windowpanes that look out into trees as far as the eye can see, rustic decor, and lots of blankets to wrap myself in…snuggling up with the one I love and a cup of hot chocolate, just enjoying the peace and quiet and beauty of nature.

UPDATE: This post previously ran on October the 16th, but as we are continually in its cycle, we thought we would bring it back.
Whenever I feel a little unbalanced I usually blame it on the full moon, because I always find around this time I get emotional, touchy, and aggravated. Many people tell me it’s just a myth, but I’m pretty convinced that the moon’s pull has an impact on my body. Read More
