Hi, I'm Yael - pronounced Yah-Elle! Born in Brazil, live in North London, but my heart belongs anywhere tropical! I own a tiny stationery company called Little Goat Supplies, and I spend all my spare time dreaming of prints and colours! My other loves include eating good steaks, tasting rum cocktails and finding good skincare products!
Okay, real talk. Some people are out here dealing with COVID-19 by building cool shit to make everybody’s lives better. Others are spending the time homeschooling their children and spending quality family time together. Others still are out here with extra time to finally start the side hustle they always wanted.
Celebrating my birthday in a global pandemic, being locked down inside my house, was not the way I imagined it. Pre COVID-19, I had 5 different birthday celebrations planned – from lunch with my family, and date night at Chiltern Firehouse, to a night out with my friends. Post COVID-19, as the situation escalated and […]
👀 See January’s Birch Box, February’s Birch Box Did you know March is my favourite month! Why? It’s my birthday month baby! 💕 Unfortunately, Birchbox didn’t quite get this memo, and has decided to dedicate this month’s box to the equally important International Women’s Day.
We had a restaurant reservation for quite a while to go to the acclaimed Hide Above restaurant by Ollie Dabbous, in Green Park. With everything going on with COVID, we really weren’t sure if we should still go, but we decided to go via taxi to minimise interactions and to hope that the restaurant would […]
This year, to celebrate Mum’s birthday, I wanted to host an intimate afternoon tea at home for our immediate family. It had to be intimate because our flat is pretty small and we simply just don’t have the space to host more than 6 people comfortably 😫 The space constraint means that I don’t host […]
Every few weeks, me and a couple of my close girlfriends from work go out somewhere in London to gossip, vent and laugh as much as possible 🤗. It’s an event that we plan in advance, and we try to hit up someplace different every time.
👀 See January’s Birch Box contents here Ah February, the month of love and romance! Happy Valentine’s Day! 💕 Birchbox has also caught the love bug, by offering an entirely pink-inspired box this month! Each product had a pink / red vibe, and the actual box itself was an homage to the heart and to […]
I really like Seven Dials Market, and not just cos its a stone’s throw away from my work. It’s actually an ex-banana warehouse, but instead of this just being a footnote in history, the market actually celebrates these beginnings by plastering a banana motif over just about everything. I love it 🍌🍌🍌🍌
You might have guessed I love a film. And whilst I love watching the Oscars to see who is deemed to the be the best in the industry, I also really love the Oscars for the looks!
Last night, I went to Ikoyi, a West-African inspired fine dining restaurant based near Piccadilly in London, for a mammoth 10-course blind tasting menu.
