I’m going to file this under “The things You find When You’re Cruising the neighborhood for plant Ideas.”
And because “makeup” is always processing somewhere in the background of my brain, I’m wondering how I’d incorporate bird of paradise colors into a makeup look…
Maybe a bright coral lip with colorful, crisp orange liner on the upper lash line? Ooh! — then I’d add a blue cat eye flick at the outer corner with the tiniest sliver of green along the outer edge. ?

QUESTO È INCREDIBILE! —–> Rebecca Sharrock has a rare condition that allows her to remember every moment of her life. Her first memory: “I remember being in a dark place, with a reddish light and I had my head between my legs, so I’m assuming that’s when I was in the womb but I didn’t know my age at the time. That’s the earliest I can go back, as my memories are always in chronological order.”

Favorite read of the week: Lyndsay Tucker, a Sephora charm specialist in the Bay Area, has Elon Musk’s old cell phone number, and she receives numerous calls and texts implied for him.

I’m a little obsessed with the product descriptions for the scents from Imaginary Authors, this small indie perfume line based in Oregon. My favorite is falling into the Sea:
“At the age of nineteen Nica Galas published her first book, the autobiographical tome falling into the Sea which chronicled her short and torrid love affair among the hot beaches and lemon trees in the Gulf of Naples. The breathtaking story opens with Nica and her girlfriends picking bunches of jasmine flower for young boys while they cliff-jumped into the sea. An innocent first kiss erupts into an ardent summer entanglement which is cut short one moonlit night when her lover leaps into the dark abyss never to surface, leaving Nica naked on the cliffs screaming his name. This scent is sunshine in a bottle. wear on cloudy days to invoke the ardor of summer.”
Belly chains? Dai un’occhiata. Low-rise jeans? Sì. Crocheted blankets as shirt? Yes, girl, that too. I’m horrified to report that I wore practically all much more than a few of these outdated fashion trends from back in the day.
