Happy first day of spring! Consider it your invitation to step into the sunshine, turn a fresh corner, and welcome what's beginning to bloom in your life.
"I've discovered spring to be a reminder of what is to come but also of what it costs to get there. So much happens in silence and secret during the winter months — seeds burrow beneath the soil, trees go dormant before their next bloom, a layer of ice conceals the water below. But there is a purpose in these passive acts."

🌎 In honor of Earth day our editors are hosting a mending circle! Grab those garments you've been meaning to repair — socks that need darning, pants that need to be patched — and join us as we tend to our belongings while we chat about sustainability. See you on April 7th at 5pm PT/ 8pm ET on Zoom!
From Courtney Jay Higgins, Contributing Editor
"Brilliant Earth is a brand dedicated to going beyond just the sparkle to create heirloom-quality fine jewelry with a thoughtful shopping experience that includes 40+ showrooms in the US and a digital platform, too. I love their lab-grown and ethically sourced stone selection, and their use of repurposed metals— all with competitive pricing since they sell direct to you. If you're shopping online, they have tools for virtual try-on and designing your own pieces. I had the chance to try a selection of their pieces IRL and came away genuinely impressed."

"My sweet little blue pup. She came into our home with my son, two male cats and me. I didn't know it at the time but I her needed feminine energy. She just turned five, her name is Spring." - MB
