Reloved
It has finally become clear to me that I don't have a skill issue when it comes to jewelry. I have a visibility issue. Vinted is really working against me. Some of my pieces sell in a minute. Others take

Who's Really Walking Whom?
I've been wondering whether I'm actually taking Mariano for walks, or if he's the one taking me for walks. At this point, our system is pretty simple: he decides where we go. Last night, I really didn't

The past couple of days have been an absolute goldmine of realizations. The first one is simple. My life is so much better now that Mariano lives with me full-time. He makes my life better in ways I didn't

The Poison Disguised as Food
Yesterday was Sunday, and I was feeling lazy. I simply didn't feel like cooking for myself. Instead, I found myself craving pizza. If you're on a gluten-free diet, you already know how difficult it is

From 2000s Clunky to Contemporary Chic
We’ve all been there: you have a piece of vintage jewelry that you want to love, but it just isn't working. For me, it was a very 2000s-style glass bead necklace hiding in the back of my "to be sold"
