Listen, I’m over here working for all of you—even on vacation! Reposting this video, and I’m curious—can you spot the difference between this one and the original? I’m testing out the IG Edits app and didn’t realize I needed to change the resolution and frame rate. 🤦🏾‍♀️ My cameras are set perfectly, but who knew this could be a thing?

Let me know your thoughts—does it look better, worse, or the same? Your feedback means everything!

✨ It’s the little things that make a BIG diffe ✨ It’s the little things that make a BIG difference—especially when traveling. Meet my new Hermès jewelry pouch. It may be small, but it’s a total game changer for keeping my jewelry safe and chic. Fun fact: I used to have a secondhand one years ago, and I loved it until it fell apart. This is the perfect upgrade. Would you use a travel jewelry pouch? Watch full unboxing on my YouTube channel (link in bio).

One side is classic black and white, and the other is a rich, warm brown. I saw it online, but I had to hold off until I saw it in person. Was she worth the wait? Absolutely.

Sometimes, you walk in with a plan. Other times, you walk out with a few extra treasures. Hubbs saw them and was all in—so here we are! I didn’t expect to shop, but when something just works… you get it. Watch full unboxing on my YouTube channel (link in bio).

Today’s the day! I promised an unboxing, and it’s finally here—straight from my Hermès Special Order appointment. Let’s just say, I couldn’t leave with just one thing.

Stumbled upon these pics from the day I placed my Stumbled upon these pics from the day I placed my Hermès special order. Walked in serving sleek, tailored fabulousness… and left looking just a tad more chaotic. Every Hermès visit requires strategy, stamina, and just the right amount of surrender. I always put in the work—whether it’s saying “no” with conviction or designing a bag that feels like me.

Listen let me tell you something… When I got my Listen let me tell you something…
When I got my hair done for the Tiffany event, it was stunning—but I immediately missed my coils. So much so, that as we flew back home, I was already scheduling to get that extra hair removed. And yes, it happened the day before we flew to France.

Same with the makeup I wore that evening. It was a moment, but it’s not my every day. I’ve worked too hard—fought too long—to learn to love myself as I am, with all my beautiful flaws and messy bits.

This isn’t about judgment. It’s about truth. As Yvette Sojourner, I adore being a natural beauty. That’s where I feel most like me.

A slow morning, a strong espresso, and now we’re headed out to see what the local market has to offer. No rush, no list—just curiosity, charm, and a little countryside magic.

Let’s see what treasures we find.

First full day in the French countryside…
There’s something magical about slow mornings, crisp air, and being surrounded by green. Today was all about settling in—lounging around the yard, breathing it all in, and taking a long, scenic ride in Hubbs’ new Porsche Taycan.

No big plans. Just presence, peace, and letting the pace be gentle.

New York Arrival Vibes… Landed in NYC and start New York Arrival Vibes…

Landed in NYC and started the week in the best way—dinner at Atera was absolutely divine. Every detail, every dish… an experience. My Hermès Mini Kelly in Etoupe made a rare appearance, and she did not disappoint.

This was just the beginning—there’s so much more to share, but you’ll have to wait for it. Stay tuned… something unforgettable is on the way.

The infamous box. I had to ask.

Yes, everything’s digital now—swatches, renderings, mock-ups—all beautifully displayed on the iPad.
But I needed to see that box.
The one we all whisper about. The one that’s been part of the Hermès A La Carte experience for years.
And we did.
We pulled swatches, we paired, we dreamed.
I savored every single second.

We’ve officially landed! Bonjour from France, da We’ve officially landed!
Bonjour from France, darling. After a long travel day, we’ve touched down and settled in. Tired? A bit. Grateful? Deeply.

I’ll be easing into the rhythm here over the next few days—letting the jet lag fade while soaking in the stillness, beauty, and inspiration that always seems to find me in this part of the world.

And yes, Hubbs proudly opted to carry his Louis Vuitton duffle. A moment.

A new chapter begins. I can’t wait to bring you along.
