When it comes to the blog, I am excited for new brand partnerships coming to you all very soon that compliment who I am and what I love.

My Lunar New Year Must Have Items – 恭喜发财

I remember the first time I heard a friend wish me 恭喜发财 (gōng xǐ fā cái) – and I came to learn about the lunar new year, I fell in love with the traditions. A rough translation meaning “Wishing you wealth and prosperity” (both of wish I could use more of in 2020) I thought that to celebrate I would share some beautiful lunar new year items that I am hoping to add to my life this year from brands Julio & I love.
