In the mood: Smoke & Violets
Our new SMOKE & VIOLETS Perfume was inspired by bad ballerinas, and wintry nights in New York City.

to my white, mysterious house,
both of us quiet now,
keeping silent as we walk."-Anna Akhmatova
LeighWelcome Back Beautiful
The Rose Reading Room in the New York Public Library on Fifth Avenue has finally reopened its huge ornate doors after being closed for restorations the past couple years. Though this room reminds me of an overly romanticizing new "New Yorker", fresh faced, wide eyed, and completely lonely version of myself a number of years ago, I'm certainly glad she is back in all of her grandeur. Welcome back, beautiful.xoxo, Rachelimages found from this articleFirst look: Rodin Luxury Lipstick
We love: glowing skin, piles of delicate jewelry, and the perfect lipstick. Linda Rodin, chicest queen of face oils, has launched her collection of lipsticks and they are just that: PERFECT. To achieve the creamy and softly matte texture, Linda infused the RODIN lipstick formula with Olio Lusso, the luxury oil blend at the heart of her cult favorite oils.
Welcome to Catbird (and the world!) Rodin Luxury Lipstick!
-LeighWhat We're Giving: Mother's Day for the Mom Who Loves Baths
It's been some years now since I've actually taken an honest to goodness soak in a bathtub, not for lack of suds or trying, but rather, lack of space. Living in a tiny New York apartment does have its drawbacks at times, little legroom in bathtubs being one of them, but I'd be lying if I said I hadn't given our bath products a test run in my doll-sized tub. So if your mother is of the soaking persuasion, look no further:Mullein & Sparrow for Catbird Bath Soak Imagine bathing in the most fragrant, floral tea with rose, lavender, hibiscus, and calendula.French Girl Sea Polish If, like me, your mom isn't the best at mornings, she'll love this scrub. It smells like peppermint, and it's an instant pick me up, especially for those early mornings, when all you feel like doing is lying in bed.Egyptian Magic Skin Cream I'll admit that I'm a bit set in my ways when it comes to trying new moisturizers (why mess with a good thing), but I'm so so so happy I stepped outside my comfort zone with this skin cream. It's replaced virtually every moisturizer I own.xo,AlexCatbird / Valentine 2016
You're Invited!
Weekend Plans with Ashkahn x Catbird

Could there be a more quintessential card for everyone you love? Silverlake based artist Ashkahn Shahparnia created this paper wonder just for us and we have plans to fill many with our words.xo,Sriya

CatbirdDid Someone Say Carrier Swan?
New York Kittens, this one's for you! We've partnered with our neighbor Parcel to bring a very last minute Valentine - planning ahead is so over - straight to you! Choose from three limited edition gifts and we'll do the rest. This means fancy wrapping and a Swan dispatched to your door on Thursday or Friday night - your choice. Okay, the Swan might actually be a Parcel driver, but beating Catbird's holiday crowd and free same-day delivery still sounds like a win/win.Â
And if you want to get creative and send this Valentine right to your love's door, we're in the business of surprises too.Âxo,Sriya
