The Proust Questionnaire, round 3. Coco & Lowe

As I watched the inauguration with you today I hop

As I watched the inauguration with you today I hope that it solidified what we’ve been telling you since you were smaller than you are in this picture: you, my girl, can be anything. This does not mean that it won’t come with pain, that it will be free from struggle, that it will be easy, but as @kamalaharris, the first Black and South Asian Vice President of America put it, I wish for you and for all little girls that you: “Dream with ambition, lead with conviction, and see yourself in a way that others might not see you, simply because they’ve never seen it before. And we will applaud you every step of the way.” The times where we weren’t allowed to dream of what could be because what could be had never been is beginning to be no more. To my fellow girls and women everywhere, you are enough, worthy and the change we absolutely need to see in the world. Keep shining. Keep believing. Keep being unapologetically you🖤 Congratulations @kamalaharris and @joebiden #representationmatters

Only if we’re brave enough. Thank you @amandascg

These are a few of my favourite things... I haven

These are a few of my favourite things... I haven’t been buying a lot of things for myself because of the obvious but when I do, I am actively trying to spend my coins with Black or biopic owned companies. This bag by @brandonblackwoodnyc is not only perfectly on trend, it has a message that we all need to be fighting for: End Systemic Racism! I first bought @officialbyredo Tulipmania on the strength of @chrissyteigen’s Instagram story where she said it was the best smelling thing ever. It was. I then went on to buying these scents because I became obsessed with not only the branding, packaging, how the founder was inspired by trips to India with his mother and how he leaned into the magic of slow growth, but how a simple action of spraying something beautiful on myself made me feel good. And right now there isn’t much more important than seeking out small things that simply make you feel good and human and like you again. Self care and self love can be hard these days. It doesn’t have to come from buying things, it can come from sneaking moments alone for yourself, taking a walk, indulging in something decadent, taking a bath or singing some cheesy music really, really loud. However you can, find a way to take care of you. You deserve it, even in the midst of all of the stress you forget you do 🖤

When you pretend you’re not notorious for losing

When you pretend you’re not notorious for losing chargers and he clocks you teifing his charger... 🥴 *wait, this isn’t a skipping rope?!?* Leave me man! I gotta go skip 🤣 Also, no, my sneakers are not grey, that’s dust. Those are my dusty ass sneakers bc I live in a construction zone. Good plan to renovate in a pandemic 😝 I’ve got all the great ideas, people.

Photo dump of happier days + Jimmy’s general mood in relation to my antics and all of female energy in our house🤣 I hope you’ve been able to scrape out some happiness and peace these days. Lockdown 1052 has been in effect for not even 24 hours and it’s already been REAL! Do you and take care of you, whatever way shape or form that is best for you! Sending love 💕 and snacks 🍫🍿🍐 and anything else you need to survive!

Harlowe and I condensed deodorant education into t

Harlowe and I condensed deodorant education into this quick lil video with @secretdeodorant. The more we spoke about the difference of ingredients in antiperspirant and Secret’s Aluminum Free Deodorant, the more questions H had about it. I’ve been doing my research these days in an effort to have an all-around healthier hygiene routine for her. And only recently, have I been prioritizing the ingredients in my hygiene routine. Because at the end of the day those products go straight onto your skin! Thanks to @secretdeodorant, I’m eliminating aluminum, dyes, parabens, glycol, baking soda, and talc from my deodorant while still smelling fresh with 48 hours of superior, sweat activated odour protection ✨ Today, I challenge you to give their Aluminum Free Deodorant a try! P.S. Coconut is still my favourite @secretdeodorant scent 🥥
