THE LIGHTNESS OF BEING

Drawn to the Light: The Moth’s Message
Symbols matter. And when I design a collection, it’s never just about making something beautiful. It’s an offering. A reminder. A spark.
carries a symbol that’s been quietly stalking my thoughts for a while: the moth.
Let’s be honest—she’s not your flashy butterfly. She doesn’t flutter around in broad daylight hoping to be admired. She’s subtler. Braver. Drawn to the light, no matter how uncertain the path. She doesn’t need a reason. She just goes.
Business Has Seasons. So Do We.
Virgins Saints & Angels has been through it. The highs? They’ve been high—global buzz, ride-or-die collectors, our pieces on red carpets and in sacred spaces. We’ve flown.
And yes, we’ve also stumbled. Hit pause. Rebuilt. Shrunk to stretch again.
It’s the same beat my life has danced to—solo motherhood, the wild ride of marriage, the fallout, and now the reimagining of what is next.
Turns out, the business and I—we’re made of the same stuff. Built for reinvention. And if the last few seasons taught me anything, it’s this: when it’s time, you feel it.
And it’s time!
The Lightness of Being Collection features three powerful elements—each purposely named to reflect a stage in the transformation we all walk through: the seeking, the surrender, and the becoming.
Enter the Light Seeker
This is not the season to dim down or play small. It’s the season to seek the light—with both hands and no apologies.
To want more. To stop questioning if you deserve the joy, the success, the next chapter. You do. I do. We do.
And if fear wants to pull up a chair? Let it. Just don’t hand it the microphone.
Wings of Faith, Not of Fragility
Let’s be clear: faith doesn’t mean floating around hoping for the best. Faith means walking through fire with your head high because somewhere deep down, you know the other side is worth it.
That’s how VSA is moving right now. Not cautiously. Not waiting for perfect timing. But with wings of faith—strong, deliberate, and ready to take up space again.
Every piece we create is laced with that energy. Not loud. Not showy. But grounded in truth. Transformation in progress.
The Eclipse Before the Rise
Growth doesn’t always announce itself with sunshine and clarity. Sometimes it’s murky. Quiet. A little uncomfortable.
That’s the eclipse moment—where one version of you fades and another begins to take shape. You can’t rush it. You can’t fake it. But you can honor it. And when you do, you come out the other side with a clearer voice, a deeper pulse, and confidence like no other.
That’s where we are. And honestly, it feels damn good.
So yes, this collection is personal. It’s spiritual. But it’s also a call-out. A wake-up. A nudge to stop standing on the edge of your next big thing.
Wear the pieces. Feel the shift. Let them remind you that transformation doesn’t ask for permission—and neither should you.
Keep seeking. Keep rising. The light is calling. And you’re ready.
