My sweetheart’s birthday was yesterday, so I brought donuts to his office, took him on a quick coffee date, & decorated the apartment to celebrate him 🥰 The main gift was a long weekend in Toronto, but something about showing someone their literal gifts with ✨drama✨ just does it for me 😮‍💨 He’s

Was hesitant about posting in July, but felt ready now! 🙂‍↕️ I fell in love with a little perfumery in the Gothic Quarter named Sillage Barcelona. It’s brand new and owned by an incredibly kind woman named Aida who helped me FINALLY find my signature scent! We walked past it on a walking tour &a

✨lmk if you want outfit details!✨

Ryan took me to ILF for the second year in a row & it was just as fun as the first time! We immediately went and got donuts & cider (top level fr fr) before Apple picking and spent an hour walking row by row and filling a half bag (the only size 🫠🙄). We had pizza for lunch at the restau

1. I went back to work today after being away in Jamaica with Ryan and saw that the facade commissions were installed!!! I totally spaced about that and the fact that there was an opening tonight 😭🫠🤦🏾‍♀️. 2. Even though I caught up with my work girlies & spoke on the phone with my Maya today

This week has been pretty chill, raf came to see me on Wednesday and we’re gonna try that more now bc #longdistancetings but I think it’s gonna be so lit. Finally got laundry, work is going pretty ok, and the long weekend is gonna be so well timed!!

A few things from my weekend IKEA trip for my apartment! This haul is less about aesthetics and really focused on items that made my home more functional or that met a need. Proud of myself from fighting the temptation of random purchases (a few did slip tho 😅🤣) and getting out of there relative

Happened to be driving to Connecticut for a graduation party & thought I might as well swing by IKEA! I haven’t been inside one of these in 3 years so it was an emotional reunion 😪😂 took my time going through all the show rooms & felt really inspired! I’m going to take things much slowe

🚨MAJOR UPDATE: the couch came! (& I kinda don’t like it) I did a lot of searching on FB marketplace for a modular sofa (ideally with storage) but kept coming up shot. Thennn I started looking online and couldn’t find anything under $1200 that really spoke to me. I finally found this one on Amaz

Girl math says window shopping is actually saving money 🤷🏾‍♀️ My bf is doing a no spend month on luxuries & inspired me to take a similar approach to extracurricular spending. I’m not drowning in cash, but I do have a well paying job that makes it possible for me to pay all my bills and hav

I’ve been (kinda sorta) in my new place for two weeks and am making good progress with decorating! I’m working zone by zone so that this process doesn’t get overwhelming & so that I can get a sense of what I really do or don’t need. This is my first studio apartment & I love it so much!! Ca

One of my favorite things about working in museums is that we’re always getting invited to things at other institutions! We had a lil department field trip to the Whitney Museum of American Art and got an amazing tour of the Whitney Biennial from one of its curators. Most of these slides are hi

Finally found the time to go get my hair properly cared for at a natural hair salon! Yesterday was my WFH day so it seemed only right to do some self work, no? 😅 I hadn’t gotten a trim since earlier this year and was in need of a great cleanse and moisturizing treatment. I got that and so much m

What. A. Dayyyyy!!!!! This Sunday was one of those perfect days. I ended up spending hours outside and in the world connecting with my loved ones and supporting strangers. When I was at home, I fed myself well and poured into thinking about the design for my apartment and had a breakthrough!

RAF and I were supposed to go Mexico, but Hurricane Beryl said ✨no✨ and cancelled our flight two days before we were meant to leave. The airline gave us a flight credit and 24 hours to figure out where we’d go instead and the hotel refunded us (truly a miracle 🥹). 2 hours of staring at the airl

i can’t believe i just learned about a platform that has all my favorite things 🥹😭 on top of all of the other things i’ve shared, i’m also a Pinterest veteran & lover of wordy Tik Tok slides so stoked to share more about my wellness journey, work as an art curator & how i’ll get my lil
