My husband and I got engaged in late February 2020. If you can cast your mind back that far, the true comedy of timing will become clear. We spent our engagement weekend at Arlo NoMad, our favorite reasonably priced microhotel, went to the restaurant we had our first date at (Marta) and bought a MoMA membership that we never used again for obvious reasons. After touring the Judd exhibit we hit the MoMA store and I bought this espresso pot to commemorate the weekend (because a ring wasn’t enough.) Anyway, we got Zoom married on our couch and I use the espresso pot almost every day!

ok i have a lot of hot takes about how potters cop out of accountability to consumerism and ecological destruction by saying their shit is hand made— but i have always enjoyed owning very little of a thing and having beautiful things that LAST and i love forever. this mug by Mao Projects is a recent addition that I won at a silent auction and i’ve been drinking coffee every morning out of it. i love it so far :,)

I won the brown cow mug in a contest where you had to collect yogurt container lids. For that brief time, I was quite addicted to brown cow yogurt, but mostly just wanted this mug. Even though it's a little chipped now, I still love it for my java indulgences.
For non-Matcha teas, I often choose this mug I got from Minx Factory in Barcelona. I am a huge fan of theirs. I had a pastel mug previously but it broke when I moved back to Columbus from Chicago.

My favorite mug <3
I have used this mug every day for years! I first got the one on the right super on sale at renegade craft fair and became obsessed with it. Last year, I put some way too hot water in it and the porcelain cracked so it is no longer usable. :( I ordered a new one (and it is a bit bigger and thicker than my old one!) and I am now using the old one to hold all of my pens, etc. It is the perfect size and shape and has the perfect handle too.
Franca is a local Brooklyn-based ceramic studio. Some of their other designs are really cool, would rec checking them out! And I noticed they’re having 20% off right now for mother’s day🫢

Do you want to feel EXPENSIVE for FREE? I have discovered so many new favorite songs from listening to the monthly Spotify playlists put out by The Row. I am so attuned to their cadence that I even like to think that I can tell when the unseen curator is going through it. If you, like me, can’t afford anything from The Row just consider these playlists oatmeal cashmere for the ears.

These pants are my The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, by which I mean mysterious pants traveling from unknown origins to my body. I dug my first pair out of a bin at Dusty Rose Vintage, eyeballing the fit…which was perfect. For years, they held a place of prominence in my wardrobe as my singular pair of high-waisted jeans until one day I had the genius idea to google the brand and buy out every pair I could find on the internet. Now, I have five or six pairs of Stefano Worldwide Jeans in different variations sourced from eBay, Etsy and Poshmark and I still have no insight into the brand. My theory is that they might be the Italian equivalent of Lee jeans. (If they are even Italian!!!) Anyway, I refuse to gatekeep their magic. Thank you, “Stefano.”
