Throwback to this 2019 article about Kaleidos in written by

My vision for Kaleidos has always been a concept that extends beyond retail. My hope is for it to be felt and experienced rather than transactional. Kaleidos is a space of discovery, community, and inspiration. A space where you’re surrounded by beauty, good energy, and leave feeling more connected and empowered than when you walked in.

3 years ago I had the opportunity to open a brick-and mortar store. I was excited to see my vision grow and expand in that space, but in March 2020 the world shut down. And in April 2020 I gave birth to my daughter. For 3 years, I have put my business on the back burner while I focused on being a new mom during a very isolating time.

I’ve been slowly re-emerging Kaleidos and I have SO many ideas! Your support helps me bring these ideas to life. So THANK YOU for your follows, shares, purchases, and overall enthusiasm for Kaleidos!

My vision remains the same, but a few things have evolved.

1) I have a fresh new visual brand that embodies Kaleidos in a way that feels more fun and allows for it to evolve and be more expressive as it grows. A special thanks to .studio.studio for helping me with the rebrand.

2) My retail offering is now focused on curated vintage clothing. My hope is to eventually reintroduce new goods again - products like accessories, jewelry, lifestyle pieces that compliment my vintage selections. But for now, it’s vintage.

3) While I no longer have a brick-and-mortar store, I do still have my hidden gem of a studio space in Falls Church, VA where I plan on activating curated events and gatherings.

If you’ve been around since I first launched Kaleidos in 2015, wow! And thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you’re new here, welcome! I hope you stick around for the evolution and all the good things ahead. 💫

Hi friends! I’m super excited to host my very first vintage mini market at the studio on 8/21 with some wonderful friends . There will be vintage home goods, clothing & cold brew served by ! And of course, I’ll be there with a small selection of Kaleidos Vintage too. ☺️

I’ve always envisioned the studio to be a vessel for creativity and a space where I can evolve as I go/grow. At the heart, that is what Kaleidos has always been about — evolving and allowing the light to shine on all the facets of who I am. ✨Life looks different now for me, and while I haven’t been able to produce much with , I love the idea of being able to open up my studio space for others to create their beauty. So if you’re interested in following along as I evolve and make new use of my studio space, please give me a follow over at .co 🤍

Thank you for being here and for continuing to follow as I pivot, change, learn, and try new things!

With a heart full of gratitude,
Amanda
