We launched our Wrel Winter Collection this week! ~ a gifting edit of California made special one-of-a-kind pieces designed and curated by myself and my girlfriend, Sam. This capsule is a mix of home items, some ceramics and textiles like we did over the summer, but we also included jewelry, a custom olive oil blend that we made with PRMRY, jewelry, custom Xmas cards set and more. We have a second gifting collection coming later in the month and I’m especially excited about the knitwear that we designed with Covet By Kate! It’s all been SUCH a fun labor of love.

I’ve been back on a Second Life podcast kick after my girlfriend reminded me about how great it is, especially for people in the industry / anyone on their second career / entrepreneurial. I have been skipping around listening to the ones I’ve missed and playing a bit of catch-up but last week I listened to the interview with clothing designer Nili Lotan and it’s so worth a listen! Loved her take on personal style, that personal style isn’t about name brands… but how you pair things together. That quality matters over quantity, you really only need a few great pieces as the foundations of your closet and each season / year you add to that wardrobe. Edit edit edit.

Another great one I recently listened to: Amy Smilovic from Tibi.

You know my love for Loria Stern’s floral pressed cookies––well, how sweet are these for Thanksgiving? Maybe you could try making them?!

So I tried these faux leather pants and let me tell you they’re butter. I mean, beyond buttery soft! I’m still in awe. I have to get these hemmed but they’re so dreamy!

I’m such a fan of Kjaer Weis and I mentioned my love for their mascara on instagram but thought I’d share it here in case you missed! Such a good one. I’m also a fan of their eye balm and brow tint so this is a nice trio to get. And you can use code: ALICIA20 for 20% off Kjaer Weis.

This is a gorgeous cashmere sweater!!! It’s beyond soft––it was a gift from Vince and I don’t want to take it off. Dare I say it’s dreamier than my Khaite v-neck that I splurged on this season? Eek. I don’t know, it’s a toss-up… and more dreamy sweater love from Shaina Mote in this post from yesterday!
