We look forward to this season all year. The sweaters are here. Each piece is made with so much care in Nepal—from where the raw materials are sourced to how every knit carries the name and photo of the artists who created it.
♥️
These pieces are made in small batches so we recommend ordering the ones you love soon. Available online and in our shop @ember.maine.

Fall weather is here in Maine, and we’re not mad about it! It’s latte and sweater season and we’ve just restocked everyone’s favorite latte cups and saucers online!
Scooped them up while you can.

little bitta this and that with a jump scare mem of how far I have come in a couple years at the end

✅ dream job secured
✅ broke the cycle of allowing abuse
✅ living happily alcohol free

Life today looks a lot different than how I treated it a couple years ago and for that I am so grateful and committed to living this way instead

Here’s to many more blessings and the most kind kind of love 💖

Our last mini drop for the summer is here! We’re bidding Summer Farewell with some beautiful new cocktail picks, wine stoppers, and pretty new glassware!
…
A quick note from the studio...
We’re putting the final touches on our S26 Collection schedule, which means the pre-order window for these seasonal designs is officially coming to an end. Be sure to place your pre-order for citrus reamers, watercolor palettes with brush cups, and cocktail picks before production wraps (9/6). While you’re browsing, don’t miss out on our few remaining one-of-a-kind vases—they are fully crafted and ready to ship out immediately to their new homes!

@heymrssolomon popped into my life sometime in 2006 when we were both scrappy creatives working for a fashion start-up. I can’t unsee Rachel popping over our shared wall with Baked Lays and a Diet Coke, gleefully chirping, “Was there ever a better snack? Want to go to lunch?” I eagerly said YES. Years later, I’m still saying YES to Rachel (but we have better snacks now).

You can’t ignore Rachel. You don’t want to. Even if I didn’t know her on a personal level, I’d pay attention to her. Back then, Rachel was a lawyer-turned-writer. Knowing that law would not feed her passions, she turned to writing and mixed it with a knack for fashion which led her to @ruelala (see above Baked Lays incident). Since then, her journey is one of continued passion and hard-freaking-work, writing for brands, then casting the tone/vision for companies as a creative strategist until she co-founded her own agency, while also growing her own successful Substack/dare we say “Influencer” with a knack for hilarious, no-BS honesty and a bold, smart style that cares for and connects women in the over-50 sector.

I’m a late adaptor. I don’t Tweet, TikTok, and am rarely in reels. I like slow photos and handmade words. I prefer a paper book to a podcast, and I’m still getting the hang of Substack. But @heymrssolomon turns up in my inbox and I read to the end — sometimes for the fashion, but mostly for the real-life, honesty stuff. At this point in life, I can’t waste time keeping up with trends that are supposed to make me feel relevant. You pick what feeds you, and you don’t feel bad about it. Rachel calls it “lofted settledness”.

Rachel now lives in Miami, but visits Maine every summer. Her annual jaunt yields a visit that I marinate in the minutes I have with her often coinciding with a visit to our shop @ember.maine where she stealthy films herself trying things on, curating a haul to take with her. It will always be a giant compliment that Rachel not only likes Mulxiply, but cares about what’s behind it.

@heymrssolomon has so much to say: a style tip, mid-life-wisdom, or a hard laugh. Subscribe I say!

See below for what Rachel wore or tap photos

Back-in-Stock: The Crown Collection
👑
These pieces sell out every time we restock them. The Crown Bangle is a stunner on its own, in multiples, or blended with other bangles. The Crown Hoop is our every-day go-to that has a tiny bit of edge to it. Available in Brass, Oxidized Brass and Sterling Silver online and in-store @ember.maine
