015: #VCapproved

Hey VAULT, it's VC!

Here we have the first ever #VCapproved list of 70 things I have studied, loved, practiced, and obsessed over since the beginning of the year 2024. Some of these are old obsessions of mine that I've never let go. Some are new and interesting discoveries to me. I am excited to share with you all a list of things to look into if you ever need a pick-me-up or a huge dose of inspiration. I'd like to consider myself a coolness connosouir and everything on the list timeless in a way that no matter when you come across this list, everything on it will still be cool and researchable. The VC Approved list consists of moments in fashion culture, music, films, and much more. Here you have it... feel free to get lost here.

xoxo, VC <3
