ON HER MORNING ROUTINE
I wake up very early in the morning which doesn’t give me enough time to have a coffee or anything. I jump in the shower, pick out an outfit, spray and water all of my plants and head out the door. I take some vitamins too.
on her relationship with food
Food has always been something very natural to me, and I think it’s such a personal experience that often times we forget. It’s sustaining and connects pretty much everything surrounding and everyone together. I guess I like the process of creating something that is laborious and challenges all of the human senses on so many varying levels. It’s nice to create something and have someone else eat it and physically and emotionally experience it.
ON her makeup routine
My makeup routine is pretty low maintenance too, normally just Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer, Trish McEvoy Lash Curling Mascara, and Laura Mercier Second Skin Cheek Color. If I’m feeling fancy maybe a little bit of lipstick. Every once in a while I get a pedicure or splurge on a massage.
I also recommend Trish McEvoy Classic Eye Pencil, Laura Mercier Eye Basics, and Home Health Herbal Magic Roll.
on her haircare
I recommend Kiehl's Sun-Free Self-Tanning Formula, Home Health Almond Glow Skin Lotion Lavender, Pamela Love City Skin Potion Monk Oil, and Stargazer Lily by L'Aromatica.
on her favorite resource
I really like Diner Journal. It’s a community food zine that combines food and art culture. They do a good job at embracing local/sustainable food culture and they have a lot of great recipes and feature interesting and relevant content.
on her shopping and style
Maybe because it’s summer but I’m really into wide leg and high waisted, feeling very much into the 70’s cuts at the moment. Also, I'm really into jumpers and oversized clothing on days I’m feeling lazy.
I do a lot of consignment shopping, cheap chain store shopping but then mix it up with a few nicer quality items. I guess I like to mix cheap and expensive.
