For those who don’t know, Lunar New Year is an annual tradition
celebrated around the world, celebrating the celestial journey of the sun and
the moon toward another year. Each year is represented by a different animal
that repeats every 12 years!
This year is the Year of the Ox and we are celebrating with a look
at how you can join in on the festivities and enhance your Lunar New Year look
with new products around the world:
No Lunar New Year would be complete without some festive outfits and accessories featuring favorite characters!
