Little Love Socks
SPECIAL OFFER: Now through February 14th take 20% off the Little Love Socks with code littlelove
The little love socks are inspired by small acts of love; a little thing that make our hearts smile.
When you think of love, especially in February, I encourage you to consider self-love. Self-love is a practice, not some idealistic destination. Each day we have opportunities to practice self-love. These self-love acts can range from taking a day off, to mindfully sipping coffee, or even casting on that sweater you’ve always dreamed of.
