Friends, thank you so much! 💙💔 Yesterday, Noonday launched a “To Texas, With Love Necklace” that gives 100% back to families who’ve been devastated in the Texas Hill Country floods in July 4th and we sold all 200 in 2 hours! Together, we have $10,000 that is being donated! Thank you all so much!

We’re now taking pre-orders for anyone else who would like to add to this Impact! Come find them here and help us as we meet families for engraving with love and support.

As a Texas-founded brand, the devastating floods hit literally in our backyard. We had family and frinds at Camp Mystic some who ar safe, but so many in our community are walking through unimaginable loss right now.

This July marks 15 years since Texas women launched Noonday Collection by showing up for our founder when she needed it most. Now, many of those same communities that gave Noonday life are the ones grieving today.

So we’re doing something close to our hearts. Meet our “TO TEXAS, WITH LOVE” necklace - 100% of proceeds go directly to Hill Country flood relief through Kerr County Flood Relief Fund.

These are handmade by women in East Asia who are themselves survivors of immense trauma. There’s something deeply meaningful about women who have walked through darkness creating something beautiful to help others.

Sometimes when everything feels uncertain, love is what carries us through.

Every purchase is a tangible way to wrap your arms around families who are grieving and rebuilding.

Thanks for showing up for Noonday 15 years and for showing up for our home and community today.

Did you miss the Macaw Crossbody the 1st time?! Noonday made a vintage drop today but there are less than 10 left! Don’t miss it this time. It’s going to be gone forever! ❤️🥺🏃‍♀️

This is how we roll in at midnight! I’m back in the US and I’m in that weird time warp space when your mind can’t remember the travel time due to timezones but your body defiantly felt the travel toll.

My first Thailand flight left 11pm CT time on Thursday and my layover started in SFO Saturday morning 12:20 ET. I’m so thankful to have a hotel for a few hours! That was the best advice ever!!

Next up, my morning wishlist include: yoga and coffee and I’ll be ready for hugs and tacos when I get home, followed by some tennis! I’m not meant for so much sitting

Thailand is a total vibe and it it was an arm party, it would win! Chaing Mai is absolutely in my Top 5 cities around the world!

If you’re going to NW Thailand, let me know! I have some recommendations you won’t want to miss!

Out exploring this morning!!! We’re going to see elephants! ❤️🐘

Earrings for the occasion? The Gold Rain!! Y’all meeting Gold Rain has been incredible! She has been such an amazing advocate for for our artisan partners and I can’t wait to share more!

Noonday is the only business partnership our artisan partners in Thailand have. With our partnership they have grown from 3 part-time artisans in 2018 to 11 full-time artisans, 15 Saturday apprentices who are 15-16, and 2 full-time supervisors and Gold Rain is the studio manager. Your purchases with our partners mean so much and have done so much good to grow this social enterprise for this incredibly warm and tight knit group of artisans.

Please come join our Giveback for Thailand by shopping $100 this month and you’ll also get Free Shipping! 

Also, if you add a piece from Thailand this week, I’ll pick up a gift for you while I’m at the markets in Thailand! ❤️🇹🇭 https://noondaycollection.com/alisonmeans-alisonsvipsmimpact

Fresh hair and T-3 days to Thailand! 🙌❤️🇹🇭 I’d love for you to join me to create more work for our artisan partners in Thailand as I’m getting ready to meet so many of our artisan partners for the first time! It’s such an honor to gather with them in their new workshop that Noonday’s partnership helped build as we embark on our 1st artisan trip to Thailand! I’ve added some of my favorite pieces from these artisan partners. Come find them all in the link in my bio and make sure to add my name “AlisonMeans” to the discount code on the payment screen so I can be sure to see your order!

Every piece of Thailand purchased with me will enter you to win one of my market finds, which could be a cute little bag like this one I’m wearing. I purchased this one on my trip to Guatemala 2 years ago! I absolutely love finding cool gifts to share my gratitude!

See several things you like? Add $100 to our impact and you will get immediate free shipping from Noonday plus $5 will be donated back to our Thailand giveback for our partners in Thailand for skills training!

PS, two of the friends helping me show off these earrings will be with me in Thailand! Follow along with our trip here and follow the hashtag to learn more!

It’s the first day of summer! 🙌 9:15sm and we have power and this beautiful boy of mine has already been outside wrapping up and experiment, he’s asked me to set our plants for him to dig holes for, and when I got home from taking little sis to summer dance intensive, I found him at the piano! This feels like success! Here’s to summer, regrouping, and growing!
