A new year invites us inward and outward all at once — toward intention, beauty, and the rituals that sustain us. Here’s what we’re V~Into this January.

cook - good things can come in small packages. our new avocado oil minis set is perfect for the cook in your life or climate enthusiast looking to expand their horizons. the trifecta for all your kitchen needs.

hang - le boudoir in la is setting a new standard for the third place: a lingerie store meets community anchor. it's the living room where it happens in echo park and sure to be a new model for what it means to gather for our generation. talk about intimate.

play- i am currently playing with the dries van noten matte lipsticks with customizable cases, each an art piece unto itself. i love the botanical formulation with rosehip oil and mango butter for nourishment, and with punchy long-last hues and chic matte finish, they feel like collector's pieces that are almost too gorgeous to put inside of your bag. 

smell - there's just something about dedcool that lives rent free in my mind as they flip the fragrance industry and approach upside down. scent is personal and so should be personalized, and given the power of scent to transport absolutely should transcend every moment of your daily life. we're here for it and love dabbling across aromas. consider us entranced. 

visit- paris is always a good idea, and even better on a last minute adventure. here's my guide for the latest and greatest. le savoir-vivre.

read- firestorm by jacob soboroff is essential to reflect on and attempt to make sense of the los angeles fires, on the one year anniversary that changed my hometown forever.  

gloss - ceremonia pequi flyaway gelis about to change the games for anyone who's hard on their hair. as a professional chef, this is about to be my everyday addiction. bring the heat.

wear- christy dawn finally giving us what we want and need. intimates that heal the earth and are 100% pure regenerative cotton for your precious skin. not to mention a newly launched limited edition intimates gentle and botanical laundry wash with our dear ones at Koala Eco to go with it. match made in climate heaven, if you ask us.

impact - this month we honor martin luther king jr. as we do every january who remains a prolific teacher and beacon of home, today as ever. learn more about the king center and how you can get involved with their advocacy and education.
