VENICE—The new moon is an opportunity to align ourselves with new beginnings. In ancient times women would gather in alignment with the moon phases. These circles of women would offer rituals and ceremonies to nurture, inspire, reflect and heal while acknowledging the wisdom of the feminine. Spend an evening reconnecting with nature and tapping into your feminine strength on Thursday from 8-10pm during a moon session with tickets available here for $25, led by master yoga teacher and doula Paula Mallis at 514 Victoria Avenue.

CENTURY CITY—Leather handbag favorite Kooba is hosting a trunk show for their spring and summer collections at the Bloomingdale's at Westfield Century City (10250 Santa Monica Boulevard) this Saturday from 12-6pm. You'll be able to shop and browse some of Kooba's classic silhouettes (gotta love the old-school Jonnie) along with their newest collection, available exclusively at Bloomingdale's. Light refreshments will be provided so you can snack while you shop.
