Youth, Autumn 1998, by Alexei Hay for Self Service Magazine

i love these rooms so much because you can totally see each girls' personalities and tastes coming through which is what i want to achieve with my room.

after reading i-D's i-Profile of Hannah Lambert (assistant to fashion critic Sarah Mower) i have fallen in love with her quirky style - involving Christopher Kane, Prada, and Meadham Kirchhoff in abundance.

before we bid adieu i just wanted to #signal boost this really pretty lip tar created by Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics to raise funds for Gender Affirming Surgeries of one of their transgender employees. so buy it or i'll cry (c'mon, it's only $25 including shipping!!!).

lessons from my mother

not my mother, of course! the mothers of the daughters of Transylvania, Romania whose wisdom (and in most cases myths) Andrea Dezsö has preserved through the art of embroidery.

(P.S.: sorry for not updating as regularly as i like to, this week has been hella hectic)

part boxcar, part fairyland

today's room belongs to one of my favourite musicians, thinkers, and artists: Patti Smith. “my room reflected the bright mess of my interior world; part boxcar, part fairyland," Smith states.
