I woke up telling myself I’m gonna use my energy to do only what I love today and be fully present. Comfort and confidence getting me through these movements swiftly. What are you using your energy on today?
These are the jewelry pieces from the Monica Vinader x Doina collection I have been wearing just about everyday. This collection is made from 100% recycled silver and vermeil. How wonderful is that? These earrings are by Loveness Lee and they give me such an organic feeling energy every time I put them on. Not to mention, this leather corset by Nineh has been a longtime favorite of mine. It is made from vegetable tanned / chromium-free leather. These are the pieces I’ll be keeping in rotation for a lifetime. I’m all into supporting the brands who really focus on the craft of their art, and take sustainability into account with their work.
I started reading a lot in Brazil and finished The Vegetarian by Han Kang and now I’m going to start Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay by Elena Ferrante, the third in a series. I feel like I gained back focus with this last read that left me questioning so much about mental health and the cultural differences in approaching it specifically amongst women. This was a focus that was lost to too much screen time. Getting back to my old reading rituals is one part of my wellness goal for the days to come. Every time I take something a away from a book I’m reading, I find somehow to learn something more about myself and my own view on the world. That’s my favorite thing about getting lost in a story. It’s seeing bits of myself reflected in it. It’s like taking little steps towards being more and more up close and personal with myself.
Rearranging furniture, as per usual, because it gives me a sense of calm. Rearranging, making shapes, paying attention to how the light hits differently when the angle changes. I love putting effort and thought into these little shifts.
