Mused: Winter Whites (& Lights)
I love warm, creamy white tones, but I don't forego this color palette in the winter. I embrace it. Perhaps because I live in Los Angeles, and we don't get snow here. Whatever the reason, the items pictured above are soothing and cozy for the colder months. For those of you who are afraid to wear white, I added a few light neutrals into the mix. I am someone who spills and cannot keep things clean, but I always have Dr. Bronner's with me, and it works wonderfully for getting rid of stains.

Pansy is my favorite underwear brand. I don't wear underwire bras for health and comfort reasons, but I would live in Pansy regardless. Their pieces are soft (visually and to the touch) and beautiful. All of their products are made ethically of organic cotton. You can purchase this set or others here.
This rug from Faire Studio looks like the coziest place to meditate, practice breathwork on, or simply walk across. I love the texture and pattern, and if you're looking for something even simpler, they offer a pattern-free version. Their rugs and pillows are sustainably made with recycled materials - designed in Paris and woven in the Iberian mountains.
If I could only own one item of clothing, I would get rid of everything but my Kamm Pants (I realize I'd then be topless, so I'd have to keep a Pansy bra as well). Kamm pants are my absolute favorite staple in my wardrobe. Yes, they are an investment, but they will last, and you will wear them multiple times per week (I live in mine). They are classic and chic, and you can wear them casually with sneakers or dress them up with heels (also to mention, they're incredibly comfortable and durable). I am loving this style (the Ranger) for the colder months, when I want my legs to be protected. If you're apprehensive to wear a true white but want the same look, here they are in natural. Jesse Kamm designs her collections here in Los Angeles, where the clothing is also produced.
Lite + Cycle is a beautiful company that creates fragrances for the home and body made of therapeutic-grade essential oils. They also donate a portion of every sale to charities that help bring solar-power light to communities around the world in need of electricity. Their candles are designed with so much attention to detail - purchase here.
I love small bags that feel like second skin. Especially this one, because it ties around the waist - it will stay with you. Are Studio bags are designed and hand-made in Los Angeles. Here is the Disc photographed by Alexis Nelly.
Leaves and Flowers creates handcrafted herbal infusions and premium small batch teas. I've been drinking their sleep tea all winter. I steep it with my tea infuser before bed every evening. Not only is it potent, but it's also beautiful and fragrant - it's smooth, warming, and minty. You can purchase it here.
You may already have picked up that I love ceramics. Anything with an earthy texture will get me. The Terra Surface mount from Cedar and Moss is no exception. It lived in the kitchen of my last home, and I miss it dearly. It comes in many colors, but my main crush is for the "bone" finish.
