A gentle reminder to “vote with your wallet” and support your local small business!
Small and micro businesses are the backbone of our communities, cities, neighborhoods and country, and we need your support more than ever to survive. We’d love to encourage you to #ShopSmall this week and consider stopping by your neighborhood store to do your Black Friday and holiday shopping instead of just clicking to Am*zon. Not that you would!!! 😱😎
Check out some of your local friendly small businesses on the next slide and please shop small! (at Venice California 90291)

Friends, like everyone else, we’re playing it day by day, and right now for the safety and heath of our employees and clients we’ve decided to temporarily close our brick and mortar stores. In an effort to keep the lights on and my team employed we will be doing store visits by appointment only. Please know that my team is coming to work only if they want to (please do not be judgmental, not everyone has the privilege of going without pay). I have assured them that they won’t be penalized for staying home, and we will be practicing social distancing by limiting the number of folks in the store at a time.
You can still visit us online 24 hours a day at www.shoplcd.co and we are working on a special promotion to help raise money for folks who are chronically ill and unable to acquire their necessities during this time of need.
To schedule an appointment please email us at info@shoplcd.co or email your favorite staff member. Thank you so much for your continued support of our small business. Stay healthy, stay calm, stay safe! ❤️ (at LCD)

Introducing: Studio Visits – a new editorial series where we explore the creative process by connecting with artists of all types. Since its founding, LCD’s intention has been to support and nurture contemporary arts and independent creators with unique points of view. To kick off our series, we caught up with jewelry designer Faris Du Graf, of her eponymous line Faris Jewelry, at her home in Seattle. 👉🏽 (at Seattle, Washington)

Grateful to all of our friends and family and amazing amazing clients who have helped us survive in this incredibly tough retail landscape. It’s always been a labor of love, and I hope that everyone who shops with LCD feels that love and kindness, from our handwritten thank you notes, to in-store interactions. I’m so thankful to have the best team of hardworking, considerate, good-intentioned people. Thank you, thank you!! My heart is full. My belly? SOON COME. 😂🥰❤️

I started collaborating with Sandy on an exclusive fleece early this past summer, when Izzy had already been diagnosed with her second cancer, a malignant nasal sarcoma (her first was a spindle cell tumor in her leg). I wanted to name our fleece after her because she brings such happiness to everyone who visits our shops, with her puppy-like energy and full body tail wags — not to mention her propensity to knock every thing down in her eagerness to say hello. Izzy had been doing very well post-radiation, with a CT scan in July showing some shrinkage in her tumor.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unfortunately last week, right after the launch of her namesake fleece, I found out Izzy’s cancer has progressed. She’s currently undergoing a second round of more intensive radiation treatment at the amazing @vetcancergroup which will conclude today.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tomorrow, we invite you and your furry baby to come by LCD @ROWDTLA between 2-5pm to give Izzy some belly rubs, enjoy micheladas and bites by @zehrahmed and get your dog (or cat!)’s aura photographed by @thekindaura.

Ps shoutout to baby-faced me and Izzy at the Grand Canyon! 😂🥰🐶 (at Veterinary Cancer Group of Los Angeles)
