Still thinking about this year’s Matcha and Manifest event 🍵✨

Usually I like to create my vision boards at home, with a playlist playing in the background and a candle or two. But doing it within the historic walls of made the whole experience feel elevated and intentional in a way I didn’t expect. There’s something inspiring about being surrounded by creative energy, stunning San Diego architecture, and meeting women who are just as driven.

A huge thank you to .brwn, , and .co for hosting such a meaningful and energizing event. I left feeling inspired, grounded, and more excited than ever to bring my visions to life in 2026 ✨

Here’s to more moments like this.

7 days, 7 classic fall trends I always find myself coming back to 🤎

As a practicing minimalist and a person who loves efficiency, these trends - from accessories to fall color combinations - have been my saving grace during this busy time of the year.

Do you have any favorite trends?

A throwback memory to one of my favorite San Diego hotels 🥂

The last time I stepped into was before the stunning renovations by CH Projects and Post Company a few years ago. Although the changes are drastic, I’m personally a fan of the eccentric look the Lafayette has currently.

A combination of Victorian, Tudor, and Gothic maximalist details - from the lobby to the pool - there’s still a beautiful connection that ties it all together. Even the contrasting prints and textures felt natural together 🤎

For dinner, my friend and I went to Quixote, a Mexican restaurant that’s located right inside the hotel. We ordered several dishes, like the Pulpo and the Bay Scallop Black cocktail, but our favorite was the Crab Corn Doughnut! It’s the restaurant’s signature dish and I still can’t stop thinking about it to this day 🤤

Also time to time the Lafayette turns into a jazz club at night. There’s also other bars and a diner as other options that I haven’t explored just yet, but maybe that just means that I need to go back again soon. 😌

Is this a hotel you’d go to?

Just a foggy summer at Morro Bay ☁️

Still can’t believe I was able to witness one of Mother Nature’s beautiful creations this year. Sure this maxi dress is everything but to be present in this view was something else 🖤

(But if you do want the link to this dress + alternatives under $100, just comment SHOP and I’ll send it to you!)

Did you go anywhere this summer? ☀️

When your intrusive thoughts get the best of you (and I just rewatched Twilight lol 🤭)

But really though, I can’t get enough of this black maxi dress from Meshki! It’s perfect for summer but it has the potential to be a great transitional fall outfit too 🖤

I linked it below + other alternatives I thought were pretty cute that are under $100: https://liketk.it/5mOVa

Come with me to the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego

I went with a friend a little while ago and it felt great to finally check this place off my San Diego bucketlist!

The museum has three floors of art - from paintings, photographs, and occasional sculpture - as well as a cute restaurant next door, called The Kitchen, that has delicious bites and refreshing drinks 🥂

What’s even better is that the museum currently offers extended hours every Thursday - Sunday, making it the only San Diego museum to offer regular evening hours.

Is this a museum you’d visit?

Forever a girl who loves a well-fitted, ethereal maxi dress 💚🧚‍♂️

I originally got this Meshki dress for a friend’s birthday celebration but it’s too good to put away for the rest of the year - from weddings to dinner dates✨

It fits perfectly in all the right places but this one does just the trick - the fabric is super comfortable + stretchy.

(And did I mention the sleeves and the off-the-shoulder becauseeeeee 😍)

It does run a bit long so I recommend wearing heels with this maxi dress.

I’ve linked the original dress here but also linked some similar summer maxi dresses that make great alternatives: https://liketk.it/5i8nk

For reference, I’m 166.37 cm/5’5.5” ft & 105 lbs.This dress is a size xxs in the color Basil

Hi - it’s been a while.

This took me a little while to sort through but these are some of my favorite highlights from 2024 🎀

I’m not sure about you but last year was diabolically beautiful with its ups, downs and everything in between. It was a year of learning to be more present while growing in other ways I hadn’t expected at the same time. Despite the challenges, I’m thankful for it all and the good memories that come with it too 🤍

How was your 2024?
