A gentle reminder that I myself have needed lately. I’m not always kind to myself, I don’t always look at myself with the same gentleness I save for my friends. But I’m learning. So just in case you needed to hear it to, a reminder to grant yourself that same kindness you so easily give to others. 🤍 Featuring beautiful music by @davidrosslawn, and filmed by @krystal_bick on a rainy morning in the West Village, at my favorite corner for catching the first blossoms of spring. . . . #cinematicmoments #movielike #romanticstyle #cinematic #nyc
“She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art wasn’t supposed to look nice; it was supposed to make you feel something.” Alone in a museum, and I find that I am never just searching for beauty – I am searching for something that lingers, that unsettles, that stays with me long after I’ve left. Because art, much like life, is not meant to be merely admired in passing for its beauty, but to be felt; to stir, to linger, to leave something behind. Musings from a morning at The Met, where I had the rare chance to wander (nearly) alone before opening. It was also a chance to view the Caspar David Friedrich exhibit, on display from now through May 11th. I didn’t want to spoil it by sharing too many images of the collection itself, but suffice it to say that it’s well worth going to see while you can. My favorite was ‘Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog’ which I could have stared at for ages. A big thank you to the @metmuseum for a morning I’ll never forget. . . . #romanticstyle #aloneinthemuseum #themetropolitanmuseumofart #classicstyle . . Featuring a quote by Rainbow Rowell
‘I am living permanently in my dream, from which I make brief forays into reality.’ And right now I’m dreaming of balmy days that turn the grass into a warm blanket underfoot, of being woken by birdsong carried through the windows on a breeze, of bees dancing and weaving between flowers, of long sunsets and late meals, and fireflies emerging at dusk to greet the moon. Forever a dreamer, briefly foraying into reality. What are you dreaming of right now? . . . From a moment created by @krystal_bick & @leanneansar that I helped photograph (and then jumped in at the end) last summer in Tuscany, and a moment I’ve dreamt of ever since. . . . #dreamyaesthetic #romanticstyle #tuscanylovers #vintagevibes

I’ve got my eye on you. 🗝️ Truth be told, I’m often nervous about having a camera so close to my face. I’ve learned oftentimes that when I create images created from a distance they tend to perform better. Images without my face in them. Maybe that’s because it allows the viewer to picture themself in the scenario instead. Maybe it’s because it feels less intimate. So consider this me learning how to be more brave and inviting you in just a little closer. Hello. Spent an afternoon playing around with makeup with no real plans for even leaving the house. Made a mess of the sink, dug through my makeup bag, and felt, just a bit, like a kid playing with art supplies. And so here is the final look, that I documented entirely with a few short video clips that I pulled these frames from. Makeup details will be included below (just as soon as I can get to my makeup bag to double check colors & shades!)♥️ . . . . #thepoetryofbeauty #romanticstyle #classicstyle #freckled #redhairdontcare #redhead

‘Ta voix, tes yeux, tes mains, tes lèvres.’ 🥀 I’ve been experimenting a bit with my work here, trying new things and new interpretations. I think most of you know, but I was an actor before I started sharing my life online. And I think a part of me will always try to bring some of those elements into my work. It’s not the same, of course, but cinema will always find a way back into how I create. Featuring a self-filmed makeup look (that I can share details on if you like) plus me pushing past my fear of showing myself ‘up close’. Inspired by an audio from @filmoment, featuring Anna Karina in Jean-Luc Goddard’s ‘Alphaville’. . . . #romanticstyle #cinematicmoments #movielike #academyawards2025 #oscars
“What are we wearing today?” // “I’m early – want me to grab you a coffee on the way?” // “Text me when you get home!” // “How’s your mom doing?” // “You’re NOT going to believe who I saw today!” // “Fries and Coke@Zero?” // “Honey, I’m so proud of you! You NAILED IT!” // “So flights to Santorini are pretty cheap right now, just sayingggg.” // “Can I borrow that one dress you wore last week to dinner on the UES? I’ll dry clean right afterward!” // “So you know that audio that goes…” // “Can I say something a little unhinged right now?” // “I got us reservations at Cafe Zaffri…yes, I’m a miracle worker, I know.” // “My ETA looks like 7:47 – I’ll wait for you in front.” // “How did the presentation go?” // Wait, I see you at the end of the platform. Are we both wearing polka dots today? LOL I love us.” Wearing head to toe @talbotsofficial in a very Parent Trap, matchy/matchy kind of way and you know what? We wouldn’t change a thing! . . . #cinematicmoments #friendshipgoals #movielike #classicstyle #mytalbots #modernclassicstyle #sposered
“Sometimes there is nothing less lonely than time spent alone.” @atticuspoetry | As an introvert to my vote, the film Amélie has always felt so comforting to me. I know I’m not alone in feeling this way, in how I see myself in the way she moves through the world – curious, observant, and most alive in the quiet moments. She finds magic in solitude, in the richness of her inner world, and so to do I. But even she must learn when to step beyond it, and when to reach for something more. And so, when I feel myself retreating inward, I remind myself: my inner world is just as full, just as vivid. Sometimes, I just need to lose myself in it – before I’m ready to step back out. . . . #cinematicmoments #movielike #amélie #lefabuleuxdestindameliepoulain #parisianbalcony
