Oh, I just had to stop procrastinating and get this together. For some reason, I convinced myself that I couldn't make anything. This is a lie. I mean, of course, I don't do it often, because I've always delegated such tasks. Packing is just reading the instructions and following them, right? I think it's time to just do it. They drove. Okay, I can do that. quite a meditative process. I like it. Tell me why every time I collect something I feel like Kim in this photo. Not so bad. Now I feel incredibly satisfied with what I have achieved. Wow, I can't believe I put this all together myself. A desk was absolutely necessary now that he's going to kindergarten. Yes, I feel great. This month is very busy with mommy
responsibilities, because school is in full swing. We have school evenings, parent-teacher conferences, meetings, drop-offs, introductions, in short, everything. So to prepare for all of this, I want to feel good and look good. So I'm going to put together some images with you. I also want to sincerely thank Quince for sponsoring this video. I love Quince because they focus on sophisticated and timeless essentials, and here are some of my favorite items. I've always loved the funnel neck because it's a cross between a boat neck and a turtleneck, so you don't feel too constricted. And this material is so soft. Oh, if you could feel it.
Moving on, we have their ribbed cotton- cashmere cardigan. I like the way he sits. I like that it is more fitted. I feel like an updated version of myself in this. And finally, we have a cotton- cashmere crewneck cardigan, and I'm afraid I need it in every color. These things inspire me so much for fall, and like all Quince basic models, they cost 50-80% less than their counterparts because the company works directly with the best manufacturers, bypassing intermediaries. So, you are paying for craftsmanship and quality, not just a brand markup. Beyond clothing, Quince takes the same thoughtful approach to everything on its site: from bedding and kitchenware to towels and furniture. They have over 3,000 five-star reviews on Trustpilot, because the quality is always
top-notch. Quince bestsellers are selling out fast, so if you're thinking about updating your wardrobe or refreshing your home or kitchen, now's the time to do it.

And when Quince asks where you heard about them, tell him it was from my channel. This is the best way to support. Oh. My God. What kind of fool? O. Date night. Good night, guys. Good morning, everyone. Today is family day. We're going to the George Lucas Museum, and I'm excited. Have
I watched any of Star Wars? No. Do I respect this saga? Certainly. I love fantasy and science fiction, but yeah, I've never sat down and watched it. Is n't this madness? I thought I'd show you my look today. I chose cool shades. I picked out clothes to go with my cardigan from Quince. My top is the exact same color as the cardigan, so I like that it looks like a set. Added denim shorts and Onitsuka Tiger sneakers. Well, friends, let's go to the museum. Lennon and I are going to his friend's birthday party tomorrow, so we took this. I also took one for Lennon, and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of experimentation and detail. It's actually quite fun. For example, we made this glowing LED
lightbox. We created artificial snow. There are over 50 experiments, and they are very easy to do. I also went to Milk Teeth and bought a small set of pajamas. This one is blue. It's made of organic cotton, so you can sleep in it and sweat. Let's wrap this box first. My God. Good morning, everyone. Today is an extremely cloudy Saturday morning in San Francisco. I'm here for my fifth Portola Festival. I'm still really excited, of course, but this is the first year I haven't felt like going to the pre-party. For example, there was a Despacio birthday party that was supposed to be grand. I saw a few stories on Instagram last night, and guess what? That looked cool. I won't lie, but was I afraid of missing something? No. I was more than happy
to stay right here in my bed. Let's see what's on the breakfast menu. Oh, they have matcha? No. Oh, of course. I would like a pot of English breakfast tea, and an egg white omelette. Oh, that sounds great. I'll just have sourdough toast. Perfectly. Thank you very much. I have a deadline on Monday, I need to get everything done. Today is Saturday, so will the installation be completed soon? No. No, if you watch it every day, everything will be fine. It's already on its way. I think this is probably my most energetic state all weekend, so I might as well get My breakfast was brought. Wow, that looks incredible.
I always order something I can't usually make at home, and I never make protein at home. And I love mixing hot sauce with ketchup. Oh. So delicious. Wow, that looks fantastic. Okay, this is the perfect omelet. Here are mushrooms and spinach. The only thing missing is feta cheese. That would take it to a new level. Oh my god, and red onion. Mhm. I booked this hotel with my Amex points. Benefits include early check-in if available, room upgrade if available, and daily breakfast for two. I have up to $60 in room credit for ordering food in my room or at the restaurant. And I also get a late check-out at 4:00 PM. And another $100 credit for hotel services during your stay.
Steeply. So when I'm at Portola, I try to use my credit card points to pay for my stay. Mhm. Wow, the pressure in my soul was crazy. I think my skin is still pink. It's almost noon now, so I guess I should start getting ready for the festival. I realized that I don't like to rush, period. So to avoid that unnecessary adrenaline rush when I'm late, I just start early. That's all. This is a very simple solution. If you don't like the panic of rushing, then just get ready earlier. That's all. I apply my La Mer as a serum. I want my skin to glow. Besides, it's very windy here. So, my face will fade if I don't provide proper hydration. And then I'll apply SPF from Beauty of Joseon. For festivals, I like to use only proven products. This is
not the time for experiments. Do you understand what I mean? My face will be wonderfully moisturized. So, it looks like the girls will arrive around two o'clock, so this is my last hour alone with you. I've noticed that I mostly vlog when I'm completely alone. Partly because sometimes I feel awkward filming a vlog in front of some people. The skin looks good. The sun decided to please us just as I was about to get ready. I just finished doing my hair. As you can see, I made something like I know it looks a bit Washingtonian right now, but it will definitely sink in. It's September 26th, we're nearing the end of the month, which is a bit sad because it's my favorite month for many reasons.
Mainly because it's my birth month. I don't think I've ever had birthday anxiety, you know, like, "Oh no, I'm getting old." Wow, look at this coverage. This is incredible. I was just about to get sentimental, but look at this cover. It looks crazy. This is Yepoda's Dewy Day foundation. It really does instantly cover up any redness. Turning 35 has become perhaps my favorite year. I wouldn't say it was an easy year, that's for sure, but it's probably the year I feel most comfortable with myself. It seems like such a cliché, right? To say that the older you get, the more comfortable you feel. Because I remember when I
was 20 or something, I looked up to a woman who was much older than me, and she was so confident. When she entered the room, she attracted attention, but not in an obtrusive way. She was just absolutely magnetic. And I remember in my early 20s thinking, "Wow, what's it like to be like that?" And I really feel like I'm embodying that right now. Who knows if the people around me see it that way, but the most important thing is that I feel that way. When I walk into a room, I feel like I belong, and I think it's because I have a lot more confidence and trust in myself. Because I've always been a pretty friendly person.
Such a statement. But I feel like a lot of it came from a deep insecurity: "I just want you to love me. I want you to love me so badly." And I think that's a good feeling. I think it's a genuine feeling, but why are you trying to win the approval of people you just [__] met? What about those whose trust you have already earned and who already love you? Being less concerned about being liked by everyone has helped my self- confidence a lot. And it's also much less exhausting. That's right. I feel like a lot of mental resources are no longer being spent on this, and that's nice. This applies to my relationship with, uh, YouTube as well. I know that the people who truly support me and are "in tune" with me - I don't need to convince you to
love me. You, you already support me. That's why you watch this channel, right? Yes, I'm just really, really grateful to the people who decided to stay with me for whatever reason. Really grateful. And this year I really wanted to celebrate it in a big and meaningful way. Planning a party, I have to say, is not exactly a full-time job, but it is work. But luckily, I had so much help from those around me, and I did n't even ask them to help. They just volunteered. And that's why we were able to throw such an incredible party. We had to do it on a Tuesday, right on my birthday, because everyone was busy on the weekend, and I had Portola, so it made sense to do it on my birthday,
and it was extra special. The thing is, I love quiet birthdays where you can just have dinner with friends and family, it's really nice. But after 3 years of this format, I decided: it's time to change something. It's celebrate, because this is a reason to celebrate-living so many years, right? I'm currently in the process of making a video about the lessons I learned at 35. I wanted to release it for my birthday, but I just didn't have time this year. So I'm working on it now because I want the video to be of high quality, and it also makes me think. I powder everything. Well, it looks cool, I don't mind that outcome. Okay, I want to do something dark and passionate. So I'll take the shade Cinnamon by Bobbi Brown. It's almost like the color of burnt
sienna. I think a trip to Portola is one of my favorite annual rituals. This has been going on for the last 5 years. And I like coming to San Francisco, because even though the city hasn't changed, I feel like I've changed, but in some ways I've stayed the same. For some reason, the city seems much less romantic to me this year. Maybe because there's so much crap around, and there's almost a premonition of some kind of trouble. I definitely romanticized San Francisco because I spent many of my formative years there, and for me it was always a symbol of escape. It's like a break from my routine. It takes me back to that twenty-year-old version of myself, when I really felt so free because I didn't have as many responsibilities as I do
now. And so every time I was here, it seemed to activate that younger version of me. So I was very, very happy. But this year I look at everything through the prism of greater realism. I look at the city, it's still beautiful, but I don't want to run away here anymore. The boundaries seem a little sharper, and I actually long for home. As much as I'm excited about this weekend, I also really want to go home. And I think it's because maybe I just like my life more. I'm definitely doing some introspection right now. I really enjoy using this pencil from Etude House. It's actually a pencil for drawing freckles, but now I use it for eyeliner. And I think it creates a much more refined arrow. See? A cast anime character. I use these eyelashes
that I purchased from YesStyle. They're definitely sharper and more expressive, but that's the vibe right now. That's the vibe. Okay, I'll add a little more blush from Etude House. This is a very fresh peach- apricot shade. That's it. For my lips, I will use M Cosmetics Intuition. No shine at the festival, that's for sure. And the final touch is to highlight my little moles on my face. I use a light brown pencil for freckles. I'll just highlight my moles. Yes, that's all. I think it makes the image a little more natural. Well, friends. This is the final image. I like it. I just finished shooting an Instagram reel about my
bow, but I couldn't forget about you, YouTube. No, no, no. Here is my image. I am currently as incognito as possible. I'm wearing this incredible Napster t-shirt from Jerks. And since it's so simple, I decided to pair it with gray pants. I have a spectacular zebra cap. And finally, a leather jacket to protect against the wind. I hope I'll be warm. This is my outfit, friends. I want to collect my thoughts and hold on. Move your hands in time. But you can never be too careful. So keep it simple, or they'll end it all. He just has to fall face down into the asphalt. This life is just a rental. I tried to love and learn. I tried to stay ahead, but I had doubts. Let
the waves cover me. There's almost nothing left. Until you came along and acted like you Now I am breathing. I want to collect my thoughts and hold on. Move your hands in time. This life is just a rental. But you can never be too careful.
