To our community

As the earth awakens from its winter slumber, we’re thrilled to welcome you to our spring edition—a celebration of renewal, light, and the effortless elegance that this season inspires. Spring is more than just a change in the weather. It’s a mindset, a reminder to live fully, dress boldly, and surround ourselves with beauty inside and out.

When I envisioned this magazine, it was with the desire to capture not only the aesthetics of style but also the rhythm of life. This season invites us to step outside, breathe deeply, and reconnect—with nature, with creativity, and with our most authentic selves. From crisp linens and breezy silhouettes to vibrant garden parties and mindful rituals, spring is a canvas on which we can paint our personal stories of reinvention.

In these pages, you’ll find curated looks that blend timeless chic with fresh energy, interviews with creators who embody seasonal inspiration, and tips for elevating your everyday—from your wardrobe to your weekend escapes. Every photo, word, and detail is crafted with intention to celebrate the joy found in simplicity and the style that feels like second nature.

Thank you for being part of our growing community. We hope this issue sparks your imagination and encourages you to embrace the moment in all its bloom and brilliance.

Here’s to longer days, lighter layers, and the unmistakable feeling that something new is just beginning.

Warmly,
Will Walters, Founder
Sylvia Crawley, Co-founder

XAVIER DANIELS

BIO  

Paintings are influenced by his experiences with brotherhood at both Morehouse and as a firefighter. In creating his art, he is actively thinking about the perception of black men and attempting to be a catalyst for a different view on the black male experience. According to Daniels, the conversations happening in popular culture about black males leave them invisible in discussions about themselves. The portraits of black men Daniels creates are large in an effort to symbolically assert black male presence into those conversations. His work has been shown around the world through Almine Rech and Richard Beavers Gallery. Xavier lives and works in Atlanta, Georgia.

EDDIE FONTNO

BIO

A native of the Bronx, New York, is most inspired by the brilliance and uniqueness of excellence within the African American culture. The subjects of his work have all possessed a transformative greatness, which paved the way and changed the lives of many, providing a guiding light for the world around them. Fontno takes a subtle approach and focuses on that “light” to capture the detailed nuances through his usage of graphite and oil paint (black and white) that enhances the contrast between light and dark. Fontno’s never-ending quest to find truth and beauty in its most natural form is reflective in the choice of figures in his pieces; paying homage to those who have in some way shaped his view of the world and positively affected his evolution as an artist, father and man. Fontno attended the High School of Art & Design in New York, New York and Howard University in Washington, DC. His work has been displayed in the White House (Madam Vice President Kamala Harris’ private office) and the much-acclaimed October Gallery in Philadelphia, Pa.
