For you
What will you do for you today? Like you, the real you. Not for other people’s gaze, not for the you that you “should” be, not for your parents. What are you doing for you?

If everyone else did it
There’s that old saying that parents use to dissuade their children from following the crowd. “If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you do that, too?” The boldest say yes, but the sentiment remains the same.

More on Youber, from Uber
I finally looked at my Uber summary. I finally opened up my Uber year end summary, their Youber. I was right. This was not the “wrapped” that I wanted. Instead of being excited to share, I was left questioning my life choices and UberEats deliveries. It seems I’m not the only who feels this way.…

I just tried two more Miu Miu fragrances. Here’s what I thought.
A few weeks ago, I told you my thoughts on Miutine by Miu Miu. I wasn’t a big fan of it. I couldn’t really detect the notes on my skin. It could have been the fragrance; it could have also been by nasal congestion. I wasn’t sure. You might think I’m coming to you now…

Training wheels
I thought it’d be temporary. I thought that the need to write everything down, keep a tight schedule, and organize everything was a phase, just a moment in my life to get me through school. I thought that as a serious adult working a real job that i was done with that. So I let…

Sydney Sweeney has changed her mind
After now months of silence, Sydney Sweeney has finally come out to say she is against hate. If you remember, her American Eagle ads faced backlash. The tagline, “Sydney Sweeney has great genes,” was considered by many to be too close to eugenicist propaganda. The juxtaposition of her blonde hair and blue eyes was too…

Anok Yai, finally
A woman so beautiful she was scouted, from a single photograph. A woman who has already created such memorable runway moments. A woman who is beloved by the fashion obsessed. That woman, Anok Yai, has finally been awarded the honor of Model of the Year. There are spaces that will probably go into the discourse…
