A little bit of everything & in no particular order!
Buffalo Horn Hair Combs
And they come in all shapes and sizes. The ones on the left are under $30 and make the perfect gift. If you know your friend's zodiac or spirit animal, that would make it even better!!
Chickpea Blondies
I followed this recipe and it turned out so delicious. I followed the recipe but didn't add any coconut sugar, used the HU dark chocolate chips, and topped it off with flakey sea salt. Shared it with my friends during movie night and it was well-received!
Splits 59 leggings
My day-to-day is on the busier side, whether it's going to pilates or running errands between my classes. These Splits 59 leggings have been my go-to since my sophomore year of high school and are still my favorite leggings to this day. I have tried many fun workout leggings but nothing beats a classic black yoga pant. For reference, I get the High Waisted Raquel Airweight Flares in the 30" length. I'm not the tallest so the length option saves me a trip to the tailor and makes my life much easier.
Westman Atelier
I dedicate most of my time to getting ready for skincare and giving myself a blowout so I prefer keeping my makeup quite minimal and quick. Recently, I have been loving Westman Atelier, especially their highlighter in the shade Nectar. I have kindly forced all my friends to try it out and it's safe to say that we now all have one unified step in our makeup routines. I also love their brand ethos and love that I can feel its essence in their products which is something really rare these days.

ft me & my friends' reflections
Paul Signac's Setting Sun
This one was new on view and the colors felt so magical
The Frisée salad at cafe cluny
Cafe Cluny is one of my go-to spots in the West Village. If you are in New York, you should go. It's the coziest little corner and never disappoints. I got my frisée with chicken paillard and just look at this egg...
Andine Pajama Set
Who doesn't want to wake up feeling like a princess? Andine is a new brand I recently discovered and this set is so chic and adorable.
A flattering silhouette
A backless turtleneck top by Lisa Yang, just the right balance between showing skin and staying warm. It's 100% brushed cashmere and 40% off!
The Falls
I discovered The Falls at @Normal.Nyc's market this past weekend. They have embellished everything from furniture to clothing to bags, each decorated with studs, sequins, and the most gorgeous beadwork. The bag on the left was a vintage military laundry bag that was repurposed and embellished with "sometimes I open my mouth and my mother comes out." I thought that it was just such a special piece and hilarious at the same time, I regret not taking it home with me but I hope that someone else did. The Falls is on the vendor's list for Manhattan Vintage this October so if you are planning to go, keep an eye out for their special pieces!
LUNA LUNA!!
Even though I said that it was in no particular order, I saved the best for last...Luna Luna is coming to New York on September 20th and it's what I'm most excited to share! If you haven't heard of Luna Luna before, it is an art amusement park created by André Heller that was started in Hamburg back in the 1980s. André Heller invited over thirty artists including Dalí and Basquiat to design rides and attractions, creating a"forgotten fantasy." The tickets go live to the general public on the 19th!
That's all for now!
