I used to think that leading a completely sustainable lifestyle was idealistic and impossible. Consuming single use plastic is so heavily engrained in modern Western living that I thought, beyond purchasing re-suable water bottles, not much else could be done to stop it. Since starting a writing internship this summer, however, I’ve been exposed to […]
I was nervous heading to Mexico City at the beginning of May. I wasn’t afraid for my safety; Mexico City demands one be a well-informed, conscious traveler just like any other place. I wasn’t anxious I’d be lonely, either. In fact, I was looking forward to some solitary time on a new adventure. I was […]
I know how its sounds. Asking you to follow the ways of a man who lived 500 years ago in our modern era of social media and personal branding seems primitive and foolish. How can a mere 15 paintings attributed to Leonardo da Vinci circa 1500- something compare to the 5,838 posts of Kylie Jenner […]
I’m not really a fan of Andy Warhol’s art. I don’t say this because I’m an art snob (knowing so little about art absolves me of that luxury) but because it’s too everywhere to feel precious.

Have you had your chlorella tablets today? Ali Tate Cutler undoubtedly has, my first model citizen of 2019, though her dose was probably in the powder form that I saw her toting in her book bag when I first met her last week. We were both booked on a bridal job and I was instantly struck by […]
“Would you want to come on an all-included weekend to Bermuda with me?” That’s the question my friend Jasmine texted me last Friday. Sound like a dream come true? For many mega-influencers an offer like this is just like any other day but I never thought it would be a reality for me! I may […]
I may be prone to baby face, but nothing seems to protect me against near-tragedy underneath my eyes. I often wake up puffy, even after a good night’s sleep and no alcohol. Lately, as some sort of icing on the cake, I’ve noticed the skin under my eyes is appearing darker than usual. So I’ve […]
I don’t find it a coincidence that the day after I decided to embark on a 30 day meditation challenge, my best girlfriends were encouraging me to attend a ‘unique yoga experience’. I had already given my morning meditation a try (it’s hard) but was more than open to giving it another go, especially as it […]
