Rituals that recharge the soul. A round table in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the aroma of fresh espresso, and the warmth of good company on an autumn afternoon. ☕✨ The Aurelius Vance event has allowed me to meet wonderful people. 📍 Café de Flore, Paris #ZinniaIowa #PFW #SaintGermain #ParisianVibes

After an intense and busy week, this is the refuge I needed. Finally, time to reconnect with Émile Zola and make my way through the pages of *The Ladies' Paradise*, accompanying Denise Baudu on her fascinating arrival in Paris. #ZinniaIowa #EmileZola #Paris #Literature #Bookstagram

Autumn in Paris is best experienced at a leisurely pace. Amidst wool coats, neutral tones, and shared laughter before the whirlwind of the coming week with Aurelius Vance. Connecting with the city’s pulse is always comforting. 🤎 📍 Paris #ZinniaIowa #PFW #QuietLuxury #ParisianStyle

I spoke to my father on the phone last night. It had been a long time since I heard such pure excitement in his voice when talking about the Vikings. A wonderful challenge awaits against the Saints—one this team must embrace with pride. 💜 #Skol #Vikings #MinnesotaVikings #SkolVikings #SkolNation

Packing the essentials for Paris. As I order my outfit and the Aurelius Vance invitation ready, I’ve chosen my travel read: "The Ladies' Paradise" by Émile Zola. Rediscovering the birth of Parisian luxury before the show. 🕊️📖 #ZinniaIowa #AureliusVance #SS27 #ParisStorytelling

A Saturday to pamper myself before setting off for Paris. In the morning, self-care; this afternoon, an activity I’m passionate about: drawing. 🍂✏️ Nurturing the physical self and stimulating the artistic side is a journey inward. #ZinniaIowa #NYC #PencilSketch #ArtHistory

My Manhattan self-care ritual is essential for arriving in Paris at my absolute best. Aurelius Vance’s haute couture deserves the best version of me, and that starts with rest and skin hydration.

Some goodbyes last a couple of weeks, but love never goes away. Milo is already settled into his pet-friendly hotel while I pack my bags for Paris and Aurelius Vance. Leaving him is always hard, but he’ll be well looked after. See you when I get back, little guy. 🐶🤍 #ZinniaIowa #Milo #Love #SS27

A scene of suspended intimacy: the young woman, absorbed and oblivious to the viewer, focuses her gaze on a space beyond the frame that sets the narrative in motion. The painting transforms the everyday into contemplation. #ArtHistory #Painting #Art #FigurativePainting #20thCenturyArt

The drape of that chiffon is visual poetry, but what truly anchors the look is her command of the walk. Kendall proves that high fashion isn't just worn—it is mastered. Courtesy of #VogueFrance #KendallJenner #HighFashion #RunwayAnalysis #FashionStyle

Midnight velvet meets liquid silver. 🖤✨ The beauty is in the contrast: sharp lines, deliberate details, light exactly where it belongs. True glamour doesn’t need excess. Sometimes, the shadow says everything. #VMAs #TaylorSwift

There are books that are uncomfortable but necessary. As I reread James Baldwin's "Giovanni's Room2, I realize that the fear of self-acceptance ultimately destroys us. Life is not about meeting others' expectations, but about prioritizing our own. #ZinniaIowa #JamesBaldwin #GiovannisRoom

Zinnia Iowa @zinniaiowa.bsky.social · 24/09/2026
James Baldwin sums up the human dilemma in a single sentence. Life becomes exhausting when we try to bargain with what is essential: nothing matters more than love. Postponing it will always be an irreversible loss. #ZinniaIowa #JamesBaldwin #GiovannisRoom #LiteraryQuotes #Reflection

In "Flower Vendor" (1942), Diego Rivera captures the beauty rooted in the everyday life of a woman from his people. His masterful brushstrokes convey a profound respect for cultural identity. #DiegoRivera #FlowerVendor #MexicanArt

A serene space for reading is essential. This afternoon, I’m returning to James Baldwin with "Giovanni’s Room"—a work that was controversial in its time. It raises an inevitable question: how much has American society really changed? #ZinniaIowa #JamesBaldwin #GiovannisRoom #LiteraryQuotes

Zinnia Iowa @zinniaiowa.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
Far from being merely superfluous, fashion shares with art the urgency of confession. Baldwin captures this lucidly: the creative act demands telling the whole story. With every silhouette and texture we choose, we reveal a fragment of who we are. #LiteraryQuotes #ZinniaIowa #FashionAsArt

Zinnia Iowa @zinniaiowa.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
Arrival is not speed; it’s a matter of presence. Amidst the city’s geometry and the soft touch of silk, style becomes personal architecture. Moving forward without fanfare, just the certainty of firm steps on the right stage. 🖤 #ZinniaIowa #TheRow #StyleArchitecture #Manhattan

NY is a dream, but the start of NFL season always brings back memories of Sundays in Iowa with my dad. My version of "home" in Manhattan is this vintage Fran Tarkenton jersey. The things we carry with us... Good luck to my @vikings.bsky.social! 🏈🌾🗽
