As we step into 2026, I wanted to share a little piece of my heart with you all. This year, my word is "intentional." After a year of dipping our toes in and finding our rhythm, I feel like it’s the perfect time to really focus on what matters. And that’s exactly what inspired the Fresh Start Collection at Alice & Elizabeth.

This collection is about more than just clothes. It’s about a mindset shift—a chance to be intentional in how we live, dress, and move through our days. I want to share a bit about why these pieces mean so much to me and hopefully, to you too.

Why a Fresh Start?

Last year was all about getting our feet wet. This year, I wanted to be more intentional—mind, body, and soul. That’s why we’re bringing you pieces that help you start the year with purpose. It’s about celebrating our beautiful country’s 250th anniversary with a touch of red, white, and blue, but also about deepening our relationship with God and ourselves.

We’ve included a Fresh Start devotional to help us all pause, reflect, and begin each day grounded in faith. And yes, I’m even taking on Dry January to give my mind and body a little extra love this month!

Pieces with Purpose

Every item in this collection was chosen to help you feel confident, comfortable, and ready to tackle your day—whether you’re doing a quick Pilates stretch in a chic jumpsuit or running errands with a cute, roomy tote on your shoulder. I wanted these pieces to fit right into your life and make you feel like the best version of yourself.

So here’s to starting the year with intention, a little faith, and a closet full of timeless staples that make every day feel like a fresh start.

With love and intention,
Mia
