Someone’s gonna do it, it might as well be you.

Quannah Chasinghorse

Mum’s pieces that I can mix and match with my “modern” items. I share a closet with my mum, and I love her vintage items.

My grandmother when she was in her 20’s—granted every era had its problems, but to live out your youth in a time free of social media (and COVID) feels very enviable to me!

I would go back to the ‘90s to see how my parents fell in love.

Not to be let down by expectation.

Taras Romanov
What words do you live by?
Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water.

People who don’t envy.

Tavi Gevinson
