This Week’s Favorites 07.18.26
Hellloooo my summer chickadees, What a week it has been. Here in NYC, we endured the heat wave, legionnaires in the water supply (bless you, UES), The Odyssey premiere (bless you, traffic of the UWS), Canadian wildfire smoke (is the fire punishment for the Canadians killing all those Emus? Kidding— but also not), and lifeContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 07.18.26”
Parrots Everywhere
By: Gabriela Yareliz I know someone who has zero engagement with life. They just take what you say or information you drop and parrot it to the next person to appear competent.

Maxine’s ABCs
By: Gabriela Yareliz Have you been crafting, scheming and plotting, lately? (And while these words carry a negative connotation, I don’t mean them negatively or involving deceit. Just trying to imply a cleverness to trying to figure stuff out). Like being astute. I feel like I went to bed in a crafty little mind cloudContinue reading “Maxine’s ABCs”
Taxes, Timing and Other Details
“[N]othing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes” Benjamin Franklin, 1789 Letter By: Gabriela Yareliz Tax season is upon us. Why does it always feel like it just sneaks up on us? Seriously. ‘Tis the season to remember that the government takes more than half of what you earn. What’s new— other thanContinue reading “Taxes, Timing and Other Details”

Here is a review that recently caught my attention—Luna Bronze. Today’s review is about this self-tanning bronzer from Revolve. At first, I wasn’t sure if it was aContinue reading “The Goddess Review”
