favorite small shops
during the challenges of covid, i gained a deep appreciation for the magic of small businesses—the passion, creativity, and thoughtful choices behind every product and service they offer. we’re living in a remarkable era of innovation, where people turn dreams into reality with heart and grit. supporting these businesses not only fuels their journey but also strengthens our communities.
recently, the devastating fires in LA have deepened my commitment to shop small and spread awareness about the incredible entrepreneurs pouring their love into their work. so, i’m excited to share some of my go-to favorites—businesses that inspire me and deserve to be celebrated.
stay tuned and get ready to support some of my most favorite small businesses !

from stunning jewelry and wellness essentials to stylish clothing and captivating furniture + art, these small businesses have something special for everyone.
