As we welcome a new year, we can’t help but reflect on what an amazing year 2023 was at Smash + Tess. Not only did we bring new and exciting products to the #smashtessfam, and partner with epic collaborators, but, with your help, we also donated over 100 boxes to NICU mamas across Canada and in Los Angeles, donated \\$1070 to Wilson’s Landing, \\$1400 to Matriach Movement, and raised and donated over \\$12,500 at checkout for the Lemons Foundation, Friends of Ruby, and Water First Organization.\xa0

As we embark on 2024, we are focused on… drumroll… slowing down. That doesn’t mean that we won’t be bringing you new and exciting product offerings, but rather, we are hyper focused on being intentional in our designs, our product launch calendar, and our partnerships. What will this look like? Less product drops, new collabs (and fan-fave legacy collabs), tried and true styles and new community-led designs.\xa0
The Romper Revolution is a mindset. It’s about celebrating, uplifting, and connecting. We are a safe space and community, where individuality, equity, and playfulness are fostered and protected. And so for 2024, we carry forward this mindset, and commit to forging even deeper connections with our community through our online spaces and with clothing that invites you to come as you are. Let’s say “yes” to things that give us energy, and say “no” to the stuff that bogs us down. Because the New Year isn’t about resolutions, it’s not about giving things up (unless it’s the pressure to be something we aren’t.) For us, the new year is about intention. And we intend to go deeper, to slow down and take the time to celebrate our beautiful product and the community that we are lucky enough to be a part of.\xa0

So cheers to 2024 #smashtessfam. Thank you for this community, for this support, and for believing in us, as much as we believe in you. What a beautiful thing we’ve created.
