Digitally Recreating My Back to School Outfits From Each Year of High School

I don't remember a single thing I learned in algebra, but I remember what I was wearing.

My Dream Watch: Jeremy Scott x Swatch

Is it a bit silly that this was my dream watch instead of something by Cartier or Rolex? I've never been super into watches anyway, and let's be real, I will never have something so expensive (although it would be very nice). The watch I wanted was much more accessible to me, I just had to find it secondhand.

Pretty Girls Make Graves

Los Angeles Apparel Swimsuits That Make Me Wish I Had Access to a Pool

Or maybe just having a floor to pose for flash photos on is a good enough excuse to buy one.

Sky Ferreira by Morgan Maher

A whole blog post needed to be dedicated to these photos.

What I Wore and What I Did In Philly Last Weekend

I thought I'd take this opportunity when it was less than 90F (barely, though) to put on a cute dress and have a day out in Philadelphia. Plus, I had heard that there was going to be an ice cream festival at Reading Terminal Market, so I wanted to check it out!

Augtober - Vintage Old Navy Halloween Tees to Get Ready For Spooky Season

As I always say, August is just pre-pre-October.

I'm At The Mall and the Song Is Bumpin'

Another opportunity to quote "Going Shopping" by The Strokes in a post about me going shopping. Their new album just dropped last week, so I thought the timing was pretty good.

Jack White Live in Brooklyn, July 11, 2026

Last Saturday, I got to see one of my favorite artists live for the sixth time: Jack White. It was amazing as always! My first time seeing Jack live was in 2019 when I was very lucky to get early entry and a spot at the barricade at a Raconteurs show, and since then I have seen him solo five times now.

Moments From 2016

I only recently learned how to search Gmail by date range, meaning that I was able to find emails from 10+ years ago. Among a sea of Forever 21 sales, FAFSA reminders that I ignored because I ended up not going to college, and Bernie Sanders campaign mail, I uncovered several emails I had sent to myself. What was in these emails? A bunch of old photos of 17 year old me that I had not seen in years. They were all from 2016, most of them from my final days as a high school senior, and a few of them from the summer right after graduating.

Beware: photos of myself pre-bangs and nose piercing ahead.

THE Kate Moss X Topshop Dress

7 Years With My Cats

Today, June 24th, 2026, marks seven years since I first met Mimi and Otis.

My NYLON Magazine Collection

One of my favorite things to collect? 10-20 year old copies of Nylon magazine.

Buying a 2010s Fashion Blogger's Old Clothes

I recently purchased some very cool pieces from a 2010s fashion blogger who I follow on Instagram, @treasurextrove, so I wanted to style an outfit including 2 of the things I got from her!

The Art of the Photo Booth Selfie

The charming Photo Booth selfie. Beginning with some pics I took on my high school photography class iMac in 2016, and then the pics I still have saved on my MacBook from 2022-present day, here is a collection of my Photo Booth selfies over the years. One selfie per selfie session.

Getting One of My Dream Bags: a Mulberry Alexa!

To anyone who has ever spoken to me, seen the way I dress, or seen any of my fashion content online, it would come as no surprise that one of my biggest fashion inspirations is Alexa Chung. So obviously, I needed to have the bag that was inspired by her!
