COS!!! Art!! A legendary skincare routine!! Jewels!! A spa of dreams!! It's a really good one!!
1.COS FINDS
Honestly, COS has amazinggggg basics. I would say Mango and COS are my top two in terms of finding classic/unique well fitting clothes/shoes (COS also has great bags). BUT, COS just dropped some new items and wowwwwwwww. COS also has high quality items which means buying less and building a collection of classic long lasting pieces.
Also, there was a time that I did email a very famous stylist and she did indeed respond with her favorite white shirt ever and it was a mens COS shirt (proof below!!!) Whenever I wear it I always get asked where it’s from. It is a perfect white tee. Some favorites from COS right now:
These jeans!!! The length??? The slouch?? I love these.
This is genuinely a perfect shirt. It’s a GREAT shirt. Green is my favorite color but this green is perfection also the fit and the qualityyyy. 100% cotton for your shirts alwayssssss.
The pink pants!! And they’re corduroy. I would buy these a few size up so they had a looser fit and hung lower on my waist. I would pair it with a red loose top like the below. Red + pink together forever.
Other pinkspo:
Here is the proof:
Unfortunately, they no longer sell this exact tee but they do have this one and it’s basically the same thing. I would size up to a medium/large for an oversized feel.
2.Farshad Farzankia.
A brilliant artist. His story is pretty incredible. How I would love to have his work hanging in my home. I love his use of colors. And his amazing Copenhagen studio.
“Born in Tehran in 1980, Farzankia came to Denmark as a refugee with his mother and brother in 1989. As a newcomer who felt and looked different in a small and relatively homogeneous Nordic country, Farzankia reflected frequently on his own identity and belief system. Seeking both explanation and comfort, he often referred back to his Persian roots, not least through the films of the Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami.”- as told by the New York Times

3.Lauren Alexander’s skincare routine! (!!!!)
I love to learn about other people’s skincare routines. I’ll stop someone on the street and ask them their SECRETS. I always learn something!! Let’s talk about Lauren Alexander, clothing designer of LNA. They have theeeeee best tanks. I have these and these in three colors.
I follow her on Instagram and she has amazinggggg skin. When she said she uses LED light daily, I was not surprised. If anything is worth your money for skincare, it is investing in some great LED therapy. I bought these LED lights a year ago and when I use it regularly the results are realllllll. Here is the scoop:
The ZIIP micro current or the nuFACE device have been on my wishlist for years but the holidays are comingggggggg so maybe 2022 is the year.
RICARI STUDIOS. We are talking about Ricari below because it needs its own post.
4. YUP RICARI STUDIOS.
My dream spa. Honestly if the above didn’t convince you, read about the services they offer and the cult following they have. The tank & legging compression set is on my wishlist. If you are in New York, London or LA it is your lucky day. The prices are $$$$$ but maybe for our birthdays?!
5. Lizzie Fortunato JEWELRY.
I’ve been really into big chunky jewelry pieces lately and have been loving Lizzie Fortunato’s vibe. I own one of her necklaces and it is a prize possession that has a very special place on my dresser. If you’re into that kind of thing take a loooook below.
And that is all friends. It has been really real. Thank you for reading, I put a lot of work into this and appreciate the support!
Next week, I will be featuring the beautiful and very cool Ravyanshi and some of her favorites! I stopped by her hotel room here in LA for a quick photo shoot while she was in town. Stay tuned!
