Welcome to February's edition of Monthly Miscellanea, a series highlighting the objects, people, places, and experiences that have prompted reflection and conversation of late.

01. AW24 Runway Show FavoritesWhile the shortest month of the year, February always seems to pass too quickly between events like Lunar New Year and the somewhat odd juxtaposition of Spring arrivals and Autumn/Winter shows and market for fashion. Of the runways collections thus far, a few of the softly saturated colors, power dressing, and looks in general that have caught our eyes and heart.
02. Radicchio Not Roses Campaign - Our love of radicchio, particularly the pink, is clearly evident (as seen in our recent jewelry launch). And we loved the Valentine's Day campaign from Natoora and florist Frida Kim. Radicchio not Roses gently urges people to reconsider using the beautiful chicory in place of florals. Not only is radicchio visually stunning, but it's much more sustainable and delicious. As an easy salad, the crisp, softly bitter flavor is the ideal companion for a simple vinaigrette and chunks of citrus and cheese.

 

 

 

03. For the Love of Books by Rare Books LA - We recently spent a day at Rare Books LA's “For the Love of Books,” which featured books, prints, maps, and ephemera from booksellers and bibliophiles from around the world. How beautiful is this heart shaped codex from the 15th century? A music manuscript, the Chansonnier de Jean de Montchenu is an exquisite compilation of songs and gilded illustrations.

04. Symbols of Love and Punch Jewelry - In line with adoration and affection…we're pleased to present a sweet capsule by Punch Jewelry and Oddities. Vancouver based Danielle Mawdsley has created a modern ode to symbols of romance in textural sterling silver.

 

 

05. LNY Market Recap - You may have seen on social media that we hosted a Lunar New Year market in our LA studio, but due to technical difficulties, we weren't able to send an email invite. So from us to you, please enjoy 15% off your purchase for the next 48 hours with code LNY24.
