By: Gabriela Yareliz Us 90s girls— we all wanted to be a rom-com journalist when we were kids. I would be lying if I said otherwise. We lived in the golden era of magazines. Magazines shaped me deeply. I spent hours, HOURS, cutting collages and making wall posters and binder covers. I just thought weContinue reading “None of the Magazines I Loved Still Exist”

Dare You To Move
By: Gabriela Yareliz They say you can tell a lot about a person based on the music they like. Here is a nugget about me— I loved Switchfoot after they were heavily featured in A Walk To Remember, so it has been about 23 years of loving their music. No song of theirs hits asContinue reading “Dare You To Move”
Some Chandler Nostalgia
Rest in peace, Matthew Perry. Friends was a big part of my childhood (and I think any 90s kid’s memories). Yesterday’s news made us all feel a pang in the chest and knot in our throat. It feels too soon. Thank you, Matthew, for all the laughs. Chandler and Monica were my favorite couple. IContinue reading “Some Chandler Nostalgia”
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”
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: Gwen Stefani
Icono Gwen Stefani is eclectic and queen of originality. Much of her style has stayed the same, and now, it feels nostalgic. Gwen’s signature is the red lips… …some fishnets under some ripped jeans… Vans to pave the way… …A studded belt… A sparkly top… …And some flannel as homage to Gwen in her BlakeContinue reading “Icono Series: Gwen Stefani”
An Old Friend
By: Gabriela Yareliz HELLO I have been itching to get back here. My little fingers, burning to hit those keys in nonwork related matters. Typically, I am furiously plucking at my keyboard editing a motion while having a work Zoom meeting on in the background. I am also skilled at balancing my iPad on myContinue reading “An Old Friend”
persi in mare
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, the bright lights confuse us. We stare at them, hypnotized. They leave us disoriented. I understand the way an animal feels when it is caught in oncoming traffic. I think we spend half of our days like that. The better light is the one that glows. We feel it deeply. WeContinue reading “persi in mare”
American Wealth: Summers
By: Gabriela Yareliz As I write this, I am laughing because my air conditioner is failing. (Great timing, AC, great timing). Just as I was going to speak about the aspects of what makes an American summer. Here are some things I have learned from other people and life experience– one is that there areContinue reading “American Wealth: Summers”
Hello, 25
By: Gabriela Yareliz Adele was absent for a good while between 21 and 25, and she was busy. In mid-2011, (right around 21‘s success and release) Adele started dating Simon Konecki (who works in charity and water). They had a son in 2012 and got married in 2016 (in some places it says 2018), regardlessContinue reading “Hello, 25”
