my everyday essentials: a soft girl’s guide to what I actually use.
If you’ve ever watched one of my vlogs and found yourself wondering, “What gloss is that?” or “Where’s that candle from?” — then this post is absolutely for you. I’ve thoughtfully put together a special little corner of the internet where you can easily find every single one of the things I genuinely use, wear, and consistently reach for on repeat in my daily life. It’s a curated space designed to share the essentials that truly inspire my style and routine.

living in New York City is a dream, but let’s be honest… it can also be a lot. small spaces, constant noise, always being on the go. over time, i’ve learned that the secret to actually enjoying this city isn’t doing more — it’s about choosing small, intentional luxuries that make everyday life feel softer, slower, and a little more you. a thoughtfully brewed morning coffee, a quiet corner in a nearby park, or a few minutes with a favorite playlist can transform the rush into something livable and lovely.
these aren’t big splurges. they’re the kind of little upgrades that turn your daily routine into something you actually look forward to.
