there's a gorpy shop in Oakland called Understory that is cool for the stuff they carry, but I'm obsessed with their series of "Set and Setting" emails. They feature a beautiful scroll of vintage and modern photographs, often with an unsaid theme. They also come with a discount code if you're into doing some online shopping, but honestly I'm just here for the vibes. You can sign up at the link.

Why are their clothes lowkey awesome. I was looking for certain pieces around Christmastime and my google search led me to their site multiple times.. it’s not embarassing to me anymore. I say bite the bullet and scroll a little! You never know!

With no shadow of a doubt, my favorite place to shop for vintage online. Ian Reid is an excellent curator and ever since one of my best friends recommended Handbook to me a couple years ago, my closet is now home to a good amount of awesome vintage tees, button-ups, and knits. Still waiting on the right pairs of pants!
My only complaints are that pricing can be a little bit on the higher end for vintage depending on the item, but I wouldn't call it unreasonable. I could also just have brain worms from being into fashion.... Oh and Handbook does take a while to ship. Besides that, I'm always keeping an eye out for what they find!
Look out for new drops every Thursday 4PM PST. You can also follow their insta and check out previews for what will be available that week. If you see something really cool though, you'll have to act fast once the sale is live as it can be a mad dash for everyone looking to cop what they want

a study issued last month found that dancing is the most effective way of treating and mitigating depression. Walking, therapy, and yoga also outpaced SSRIs. and if you're saying 'oh this was probably funded by Big Dance', there's no evidence of that and if you're saying 'that's just what a Big Dance shill would say', well honey you're right
