It seems like holiday preparation starts earlier and earlier every year. It can be easy to get caught up in creating a picture-perfect holiday celebration and sometimes that can get a bit stressful. Thankfully, we have an expert on hand, ready to impart all of her knowledge about hosting, gifting, decorating, and everything in between. The one and only Lauren Conrad is our E!

She has an ever-growing brand at Kohl’s, LC Lauren Conrad, which has size-inclusive apparel for women, children’s clothes, jewelry, accessories, footwear, and bedding among its many products.

For over 25 years, Saje Natural Wellness has been creating 100% natural, plant-based, personal-care products for the mind, body and home. Today, the brand is thrilled to announce its collaboration with The Little Market – a non-profit fair-trade shop that features ethically sourced, artisan-made products, founded by Lauren Conrad and Hannah Skvarla.
The Little Market’s goal is to uphold the dignity of women artisans around the world, celebrating their cultural techniques and traditions, and bringing attention to social justice issues faced by their communities. It seeks to empower artisans around the world by extending their products’ distribution and supporting sustainable income opportunities. Saje is proud to support this mission of promoting economic independence and self-sufficiency of women artisans around the globe through the creation of a new limited-edition product, the Aroma Mosaic Diffuser.
This collaboration aims to elevate visibility to partnerships that are built on a greater purpose. The Little Market’s leadership in empowering women worldwide through dignified income opportunities aligns closely with Saje’s vision of physical, emotional and environmental wellness for all. “We’re excited to be partnering with The Little Market as we have a shared mission in contributing to the greater good. We concentrated our passion into this collaboration and believe it exemplifies our expertise in design, inspired by the women artisans within this community, and the unparalleled quality of our 100% natural products and essential oils,” says Kathy Chi Thurber, President of Saje Natural Wellness.
The limited-edition Aroma Mosaic diffuser features an intricate etched hexagon-dash pattern inspired by The Little Market artisan community. It can be used with any of Saje’s 100% natural essential oil diffuser blends to refresh, humidify, and infuse the air with the healing power of plants, and boasts over six hours of continuous cool mist, preserving the full integrity and properties of essential oil blends using a heat-free system.

“I am trying to look at this in a positive way,” Lauren Conrad tells PEOPLE of social distancing with her husband and two young sons.
When it comes to social distancing at home with her husband William Tell and their two sons Charlie Wolf, 7 months, and Liam James, 2½, Lauren Conrad admits, “We’re in survival mode.”
Continues the lifestyle maven in an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE, “Our kids need a lot of attention. We’re living in a world of LEGOs and train sets! It’s been a real balancing act.”
And the 34-year-old designer certainly has her plate full, with the launch of her new kids’ clothing line Little Co. by Lauren Conrad, available in sizes newborn through 5T exclusively at Kohl’s beginning Thursday.
“I look at kids’ clothes a lot differently now that I’ve shopped for them,” says Conrad, who also shot a video for the brand with some little fans, pre-COVID-19.
“I wanted [the line] to be really easy — mix-and-match pieces and complementary colors. And I’m a big fan of gender neutral colors,” she says, adding, “Kids grow out of their clothes so quickly!”
As far as personal time during the lockdown, Conrad says it’s been a bit elusive. “Any time throughout the day that I would have taken for myself has been replaced with cooking and cleaning,” says The Little Market co-founder.
“The only time I have to myself is when the kids go down to sleep,” she tells PEOPLE. “Every night, I’ve been taking a bath with Little Market bath salts and having a glass of wine. It’s my favorite thing! When you have young children, you don’t get a lot of alone time.”
But Conrad gives plenty of credit to husband of five years Tell, 40, whom she calls “a great partner.” Says The Hills alum, “He’s good at doing what he needs to do, and really helping me out.”
In the end, “I am really trying to look at [the current situation] in a positive way, and remember that my kids are only going to be this small for so long. And I’m getting a chance to enjoy them in a way I maybe wouldn’t have before.”

Lauren Conrad shared her family’s 2019 Christmas card on Monday and it’s sure to bring her fans a lot of joy.
The holiday greeting showed The Hills alumna cradling her baby boy, Charlie Wolf Tell, and snuggling alongside her husband, William Tell, and their firstborn Liam James Tell.
Still, the 33-year-old celebrity admitted organizing and sending out these cards can be anything but a picture-perfect moment.
“Happy Holidays!!” she captioned a photo of the card shared on Instagram. “Time to pin down your children to brush their hair and keep them clean in the outfits you spent hours shopping for, cleaning and laying so you can take 1000 photos all to get one usable option that says ‘We’ve got it together! We always wear this much white and no one in this photo has spit up in their hair.’ And then once the cards arrive you get up at 6 AM to stuff envelopes because you meant to send them out days ago only to realize that the special holiday stamps you ordered were accidentally thrown out…and at this point [you’re] just hoping they are delivered before the new year. Anyone who manages to get their pets into family photos deserves a [medal].”

She shared the first photo of her seven-week-old son, Charlie Wolf, on Thanksgiving Thursday.
And Lauren Conrad has now shared another tender family shot with her three boys.
The 33-year-old beauty took to her social media channel to post a photo of her brood all wearing matching pajamas as part of a 2019 holiday shot.
‘William felt bad that he forgot to wear his wedding ring in our family photos, but I assured him he’s never looked more committed,’ she hilariously captioned.
