My Favorite Things

“All of my important travel documents (passport, vaccine cards, Visas) live in the yellow zipper compartment. Euros go in the blue, American dollars in the green, and receipts accumulate in the red.”

“I buy vintage kimono fabrics here and there to make patchwork throw pillows, but I recently decided that I wasn’t into the visual clutter of pillows and took them to my tailor to make placemats. The best use I’ve come across so far.”

“Salomons since 2014-ish and every day since… I wear the styles that have the toggle tie as opposed to laces.”

“I like the asymmetry and how it creates a bit of tension with space and gravity whilst also being somewhat quiet and organic. The only piece in our Rafael de Càrdenas for Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams collection that lightly rocks the boat.”

“Soft, cozy, and feels slightly smarter in a post-Covid world.”

“This serum slightly tingles upon application, which, in my mind, means it’s burning away dead skin cells and wrinkles. It’s part of my nighttime self-soothing ritual.”

“One of my absolute favorite design duos in the biz! An earlier Soft Baroque work and an instant classic. We are working with them on some new projects… Stay tuned!”

“This hoodie has become my ‘neighborhood’ garment, though the neighborhood has ever-expanding parameters. I prefer the separate pockets over the more casual kangaroo pocket typically on sweatshirts.”

“A frozen acid trip whilst watching The Wiz… but functional. It’s put to good use as a makeshift coffee table on my new velvet ottoman, which takes up the full space of where my coffee table used to be. ”

“I’d like this as a gift, please. I want to use it as a keychain so that I can play with the limb articulation in my pocket. I’d love to secretly have a spaceman in my pocket…”

“My favorite chocolate brand: small, responsible, and thoughtfully made. Plus, the leftover gorgeous packaging decorates my fridge door. I often give these as host and hostess gifts.”
