Embrace Life's Luxuries
Luxury is more than a state of mind—it’s about choosing pieces and rituals that elevate the everyday. Sometimes that means investing in designs made to endure, like a bed built for restorative sleep or luggage that travels beautifully for decades. Other times, it’s about smaller indulgences that spark joy in the moment, like a celebrity-favorite face mask. This week, we’re spotlighting stories that capture indulgence in all its forms.
