Forcing the Season

By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s fall. I’ve always been that person who forces fall (and spring, to be fair). I remember wearing my corduroy pants once school started. I distinctly remember melting at a UF bus stop in the hot August sun with a shoulder bag that is probably part of the reason why my shouldersContinue reading “Forcing the Season”

August 2023 Favorites

By: Gabriela Yareliz I am pretty sure someone got shot at the train station. They had it blocked off with caution tape, Citizen App is being cagey and there were bottles and bottles of purple cleaner and strawberry deodorizer. I have never been in a train or at a train station for that matter thatContinue reading “August 2023 Favorites”

A Havisham Summer

By: Gabriela Yareliz I’ll start with this– I’ve missed writing. And I don’t mean my month recaps– though those are fun too (and one is coming). I mean I miss my brain dumps where I bare my heart and wax poetic. Reading Garance Dore archives reminded me of what it felt like to write journal-typeContinue reading “A Havisham Summer”

Where We Set Our Feet

“Anywhere God walks is not beneath us.” Stand Against the Wind, Erwin R. McManus I read this quote this morning, and it shook me. This will mean different things to different people, but it was such a reminder of the humility of Jesus, and not only in His earthly ministry, but the fact that, today,Continue reading “Where We Set Our Feet”

July 2023 Favorites

This July was a busy one, but the summer is flying by. I explored country stores, ate peaches and met a Teddy Roosevelt impersonator. I drank a peach apple slushie that was to die for. I explored a new city park, and then, a neat city pier. I walked through the Greenwich Village, which isContinue reading “July 2023 Favorites”

Icono Series: Frasier Crane (Frasier)

Frasier Crane is wild. He is demanding, excelling and sometimes annoying, but the man has taste and class. When Daphne was getting married, he called his taste and contribution, “the gift of Frasier.” He has an incredible vocabulary, voice and mind. Frasier is the epitome of a power intellect and a lover of beauty. HereContinue reading “Icono Series: Frasier Crane (Frasier)”

Icono Series: Nina Van Horn (Just Shoot Me)

Van Horn (portrayed by Wendie Malick) has incredible style. There are barely any photos or pieces on her fashion because she was a fixture on a 90s television show, Just Shoot Me. I did find one (some of our images are from this article and IMDb). Nina is a former (and legendary) supermodel turned editorContinue reading “Icono Series: Nina Van Horn (Just Shoot Me)”

Icono Series: Barbie

I haven’t seen the new movie, but Barbie was truly a childhood icono. There is a reason why more adults are flocking to see this movie… we are the ones who grew up with her and created a million stories with her. This mood board is all about pink. First, Barbie always inspired femininity… …Continue reading “Icono Series: Barbie”

Icono Series: Lydia Millen

Lydia inspires femininity, cozy home vibes and England countryside. I am continually inspired by her. Here are the picks inspired by this icono.

Icono Series: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen

It’s the Olsen twins. Need I say more? And specifically, I loved them in their So Little Time phase. It was the early 2000s and their style was very Malibu. I was always in love with the long dusters in the opening credits… …some bohemian vibes… The halter top was essential (I always wanted oneContinue reading “Icono Series: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen”
