A couple of weeks back, I packed up my bags and hit the road with the intent of traveling from my home in California to the Grand Tetons National Park in Wyoming. Along for the journey came my friend Vanessa Aristide and Wolven Threads’ new line of Modal clothing. With only a week of travel time, we were in for a whirlwind of an adventure. I started this trip with the natural elements behind each Wolven Threads design at the forefront of my mind as before leaving Santa Barbara, I spoke with Kiran about the intent behind each graphic and its link to either the Fire, Earth, Water or Wind element. As the days unfolded, and I thought about writing...

On July 27th, a revolutionary full moon blooms in Aquarius and with it comes a brooding lunar eclipse. Aquarius moons urge us to get in touch with our friend groups, our communities, and to pinpoint ourselves in the bigger picture of humanity. The full moon in Aquarius is not typically one of the more emotional full moons, as it’s being ruled by a detached and mentally stimulated air sign, but because this one comes hand in hand with a lunar eclipse, it’s much more likely to be emotionally potent. Where solar eclipses revolve more around action and fated events, lunar eclipses are more about pausing and reflecting on our emotional responses to the events as of late and the process of...
Is Your Sunscreen Doing More Damage Than Good? Our skin is our largest organ, and we all know the importance of protecting and nurturing it. We each have our unique skin care routines, which (should) include applying a hefty amount of sunscreen when we're heading down to the beach or just out enjoying the sunshine.
