I find that the genesis of a new season ushers in a clean slate on multiple fronts – especially fall. Just as the leaves change color and split from the trees, we shed the parts of ourselves that have grown stagnant, relinquish the fears that once held us back, and part ways with relationships that […]
Falling for Fall
Hitting the Jackpot
One of the highlights of vintage shopping is going into it with little to no intent. Of course, it would make the hunt a lot simpler if you already have a specific piece in mind, but sometimes, it’s more fun to hit the jackpot when you least expect it. A few weeks ago, I went […]
The Roaring Twenties
The Roaring Twenties was a decade of economic prosperity, accompanied by decadence and a blatant disregard for the rules (hello, Prohibition). Even more than that, it was an era that ushered in a cultural renaissance of sorts. One of the greatest developments: women earning the right to vote, which paved the way for a new […]
Fluttering About
This shirt’s sleeves aren’t the only thing fluttering about these days. Recently, I have been jumping into a ball pit of stress. With looming uncertainties about my career, finances, and personal success consuming almost every thought, I find myself overthinking the small stuff as well. The thing is, with a series of lows, eventually, comes […]
Love the Skin You’re In
Once upon a time, I felt extremely insecure about my pale skin tone. Throughout my life, I’ve refrained from wearing anything in orange or yellow, for fear of the colors washing me out. I was envious of anyone who could sit in the sun and achieve the coveted golden glow without turning into a lobster. […]
Rad in Ruffles
You guys, I CANNOT believe we are halfway through the year already. Moreover, I can’t believe it’s almost July, and this is my first outfit post of 2018 where I’m breaking out the shorts. Happy freaking Summer, pals! I think this is one of my favorite outfits I’ve put together in awhile. For someone who […]
Orange Crush
Lately, it feels as though I’ve been placing the blog on multiple hiatuses. For those of you who follow along, my sincerest apologies. I can solely blame it on the good ‘ol writer’s block, AS USUAL, or I can partially chalk it up to a chronic case of laziness (step one is admitting you have […]
Turning Over a New Leaf
Like most, if not all New Yorkers, I have reached my peak of frustration with this “spring’s” weather. 40 degrees in mid-April? What gives, man?! I’m not here to bitch about Mother Nature’s wrath, though. Despite this unfortunate mood swing of hers, I am not going to let it bleed into my upcoming spring plans; […]
Spring Cleaning
One of my primary goals that I’ve kept up with for this year has been minimizing my closet. At least once a week, I look through my wardrobe, swipe left on my clothes with the speed of an avid Tinder user (I used to be one, no shame), and pull out the pieces that no […]
You vs. Time
Two hands, twelve numbers. Ticks and tocks, more commonly known as the haunting rhythmic reminder of the brevity of life. How can an inanimate object and an abstract concept dictate the way we go about our days? Why do we make ‘time’ the scapegoat for our unfulfilled dreams? We spend so much ‘time’ worrying about […]
