"When I started Clare V. in 2008, my blog was how I shared what it was like to be a young mom, living in L.A., married to a French man, spending time in France, while building a small handbag business. Now, 15 years later, I’m looking forward to sharing the same things but with a little more…savoir faire. Clare V., family, travel, fashion, & giving back, i.e., my real life. Imperfect, occasionally even messy, but still committed to the idea that getting dressed can be a creative act of self expression. Wednesdays, you will get a sneak peek into my life. I might tell stories related to work, style, travel, or the book I’m reading." Bienvenue à La Vie de Clare V.! Subscribe to the link below: https://lnkd.in/g2QDYijY

In January we celebrated the launch of Clare V. x MOTHER Denim. A collaboration that celebrates both brands’ shared love for our hometown of Los Angeles and a commitment to local craftsmanship. The capsule seamlessly weaves together the two brands unique personalities - MOTHER’s rebellious California spirit and Clare V.’s French leaning indie vibe. Through this collaboration, Clare V. and MOTHER will make a donation of $20,000 to the Downtown Women's Center to help end homelessness for women in greater Los Angeles.

Greetings from Paris... Where we shot our spring collection, inspired (as always) by Parisian polish and laid-back California style. We believe that getting dressed is a creative act of self expression and hope that our latest collection (beautiful bags, cute clothes and jewelry) make that possible!

Cult brand Clare V. emphasizes the power of brands to champion social justice. Growing up amidst activism, Vivier seamlessly integrated her principles into her products. Her advice to founders? Align with causes you’re passionate about. No brand is too small to make an impact. Whether it’s through partnerships like with Every Mother Counts or leveraging platforms like Instagram and TikTok to educate, every brand has the potential to create ripples of change. https://lnkd.in/eqsdm-Zm
