Things I love
When I arrange my Google Drive Documents - habit, interface, IT WORKS (have some complaints to Google over recent updates though)
Farfetch - good quality clothes, trusted selection, FIDELITY SECTION
Justine Lévy - saved me through two breakups, met her, RIEN DE GRAVE (life motto)
Tracey Emin - I know Everyone She Ever Slept With, raw, fuck it energy, INSPIRED PALOMITA
Labyrinths and the concept of labyrinths - HARRY POTTER those who know know
The concept of spirals - the messy ones NOT bernouilli perfect spiral
Black nail polish on short nails, feet and hands - NOT chipped, rigorously manicured (sorry old school rockers)
The song Striptease by FKA Twigs - musical production, lyrics, RAW
Places where my phone does not work - Phone is work, phone is connection, phone does not work in massage parlour AMAZING
Recieving Palomita Office emails - DUH, people enjoy my project and SEND ME EMAILS
The Notes App omfg - messy, unclassified, everyone needs to just WRITE IT DOWN sometimes
Quirky tattoos! Silly tattoos! This man I adore has a coffee cup tattooed, one of my best friends has like “lobby boy lover boy”, I also love finger tattoos, I think of Camille Rowe’s Bowie in space and I love it so much. A friend has a tattoo about her boyfriend being a rockstar or something like that, another guy I find super cool has a tattoo of a song! - MOM I HAVE A TATTOO! Sorry. I’ll never tell yu where it is.
Lace and silk together - Sexy, feminine, LET’S BE SEXY AND FEMININE (more? sometimes?)
The concept of vintage archival pieces - clothes you like, they mean something, SINGULAR and unique
Olivetti shop in Venice (and Carlo Scarpa) - memories of a guy I loved, the architect is actually good (hey!), MY DESKTOP BACKGROUND
Fantasia (A) and Sleeping Beauty (B) - released on MY BIRTHDAY (A), connected with classical music (A), would LOVE to live in that world (B), they don’t make animation movies like they used to
Jewellery that is timeless - BUT NOT PEARLS, I mean the rings that I have had on for 15 years
The perfumes that I love! There are plenty but I love Sunny Side Up by Juliette Has a Gun, Super Cedar by Byredo, and the timeless Casmir by Chopard - I like when people can’t see me but can SMELL ME, also never leave the house without perfumes, I have got a long list of likes
I love very sad music, like this song by Daughter that wrecks me, it’s called Landfill. The lyrics break my heart and heal it at the same time. Counterproductive for most, WORKS FOR ME! It grounds me what can I say
Urbanism and urban planning - Shoutout to you, you know who you are! Faked it at first then it became a love of mine. LOOK IT UP, SOME CITIES SUCK! (Give a listen to Città podcast from Will Media, if you got time)
Hunters! I love them so much, not the most comfy shoes but I want some glossy ones. PALOMA ATE MINE! Bon appetit I guess, next time they’ll have glitter
Names ending in -el / -elle. Gabriel, Raphaël, Joelle, Yaël. J’aime trop and I don’t really know why - JUST YES! Reminds me of my favourite word: miel, just sweet
Biking through Paris at night - FREEEEEEEEEDOOOOM, especially great on my (ex) road bike and when you are going somewhere (or to someone) special
Thailand so much! Such a special place for me. My parents have a great life and lovely friends (happy rents happy life), I WOULD move to Bangkok, for the people for everything!
Design, and especially chairs and beds - Expos, fancy furniture, QUIRKY BEDS
Vernissages - free drinks (!!!!!!), new people, TALKS AND CONNECTIONS
The Louvre. Period. And also the song called The Louvre by Lorde! - MY sad walk spot, and my writing one
I love gems and minerals and amethyst and all the things - NOT a crystal girl, I wear them, also they’re STONES
For good measure, THINGS YAS HATES, also in no particular order but with VERY SPECIFIC reason
Apple stores - Ugh design all white and stressing, MY F BROKEN PHONE, cost of repairs (hello?????????)
Comparison and the weird desires it creates - especially towards ex-boyfriends’ exes. I hate IT hate IT. So stupid.
People who talk behind my back!! Do NOT ghost me (especially in a professional setting) and YES you can be blacklisted :-)
Technology that works against you! WORK YOU DAMN EXPENSIVE PHONE
Narcissists…….I hate to love them - to be clear I CAN spot them, still…
The concept of calorie counting and how much it can get into my brain - I do that. DO NOT DO THAT NOT INSPO
Uniqlo…. I’m sorry - unsexy, too basic. Only one person I know can rock Uniqlo pants ;)
People who either walk too close to me behind or in front of me when it’s too crowded and non li puoi superare - Obvious, hate you, just pass me
Plans that disappear - Just rude, I have to get organised, I HAVE STUFF TO DOOOOO. Also the excuses that come with it just ew,
When I’m badly dressed for the weather and I knew I was going to be badly dressed for the weather - Why did I ignore my instinct, WHY!!!!
Assholes and spiritually chopped people and unfortunately there are so many - Please FEEL things and be curious.
Any Ed Sheeran song – Perfect...... just no.
Having dry feet and cracked feet and going too long without a pedicure – not an obsession that originates from my subconscious, now is in my subconscious :|
When people take forever to answer me, whether it’s a situationship or a friend – WHO ARE YOU THE POPE? Also save me the useless late replies, I do not care now were you where two days ago.
People who call me too much. Please, it stresses me out. - TXT, or come over (unless you are half a world away).
A very heavy bag - I just think I need stuff. I do not. Repeat I DO NOT.
When I’m going somewhere and I think I know where I’m going but turns out I’ve been walking in the wrong direction, so I blame myself because I think I’m too smart to like outsmart Google Maps - Especially when I am with someone, the awkward U turn!
When ppl get too close to my dog or try to touch her in the street without asking and I think she hates that too. - Do not touch Paloma, she has a concept of personal space and she WILL bite you (she is a hunting dog DUH)
When I have so many ideas and my brain feels like it’s going to explode but I also love it, it’s part of what makes me me! – LOVE IT buttt, do not?
I hate having a splinter in my foot! I have one now and now it’s just there - Update: the splinter is now an integral part of my foot.
I hate Le Carrousel du Louvre, and maybe also Châtelet - Why do they exist, horrible, also why does Amazon deliver there ????,
Boys who are only interested in me for sex. I hate them. I have a brain u know? - Has happened a lot since going blonde (blondes do not NECESSARILY want to have more fun). Also, do NOT DM me for sex, ever (maybe).
Fashion Week FOMO - I am in Fashion and I do not keep up with all the shows, sorry, too many
Food courts, they give me a lot of stress... - leftover childhood trauma from Abu Dhabi
When I have to leave for work... the look in Paloma’s eyes – I WILL BE BACK
When someone I am in love with ghosts me!!! - Ghosting someone who you know has feelings for you is CRUEL, pick any other option please and thanks.
HATE being dressed wrong for the weather. HATE.
