I always feel a certain kind of way seeing ancestral magic displayed in museums … but my trip to the @metmuseum today was inspiring to say the least. I come from a people that pay tribute to and honor the dead and it enriches our lives in the now by doing so, connecting us to eons of generations who walked this earth before. They were beautifully gilded in precious metals and stones walking into the afterlife… alchemists in this life and the beyond…. Being both Black and Mexican, as an Afro-Latina I walk with this in my heart daily to remind myself of who’s granddaughter I am and where I come from… in order to inform where I am going and what destiny has yet to unfold for me.

Spending quality time with my spirit animals @myshortstorylong and @mylongstoryshort rejuvenating my spirit with love all around me
This! Thank you @voguishgrace for this… the longer I’m alive the more I realize how many hearts I’ve truly touched by showing up …. I’m so proud of all your success! I remember meeting you one day at the start of your modeling career at a casting, next thing I knew I was seeing your face all over NYC! Thank you for the flowers! Your work is valued and seen and celebrated!
Stopped by @thevelvettower pop up for some downtown fashion … make sure to visit the shop at 33 Seaport Hotel this weekend for some stunning vintage pieces while they’re in NYC!
