Intro Post

◊ ♫ ◊— look what the cat dragged in! that’s NORA MEDINA and SHE/HER is an around 25-year-old REGULAR to the store, but they’ve been in the neighborhood for FOUR YEARS. I think they are a FOOD COLUMN WRITER and I overheard them listening to NOW I’M IN IT by HAIM and, I dunno man, it seemed pretty fitting. Like, call me shallow but I look at them and think of MONICA BARBARO and FLOUR DUSTED JEANS, CAN’T EAT WITHOUT TAKING A PICTURE FOR THE GRAM, MUSIC ALWAYS DRIFTING OUT FROM THE KITCHEN WINDOW. (ooc info: summer, she/her, est, 25)

Hi all! I’m Summer and this here is my babe Nora. I took a dash of Florence Pugh’s instagram cooking, a 10 season binge of Top Chef during quarantine and a sprinkle of the Bon Appetit test kitchen and made this hustler. 

~'Cause now I'm in it ~ But I've been trying to find my way back for a minute ~ And the rain keeps coming down along the ceiling ~ And I can hear it                                                                                                             But I can't feel it, oh ~

+ Driven, Hardworking, Creative, Considerate

- Sarcastic, Workaholic, Neurotic

Work:  Runs  @noraskitchen on instagram, recipe tester and writer for NY Time Out magazine

Tattoos: Inner Right Wrist [x] Inner Left Wrist [x]

Scars: Marks from  little nicks cover her hands from cooking, she has a small red scar from a  cookie tray burn on the inside of her left arm

Nora grew up in North Jersey and moved to NYC after her senior year of high school to study journalism at NYU

Sophomore year she realized her desired lifestyle far exceeded her meager savings account, so she took a job at a popular coffee shop among students to make some extra cash, showing up at 5 am each morning to assist the baker preparing the daily fresh breads, pastries and bagels. 

The job peaked her interest in food, and she began her food instagram her near the end of her sophomore year called @noraskitchen, where she made tasty one pan dinners on a hot plate in her dorm room.  Initially her only followers were her overly supportive friends, but by the end of her junior year, the blog videos actually gained some traction on campus, and she had a huge influx of followers from her fellow NYU students.

Senior year she gave up a lot of partying and fun nights with friends to work in a kitchen, picking up a job at a small but popular restaurant in Greenwich Village. The job really helped develop her basic skills and techniques,  which all came into play with insta videos.  She quote, unquote, went viral right before graduation, when a celebrity found her videos and put one of her videos on their story.  The popularity that followed was quite overwhelming.

In her videos she often appears slightly frazzled as she cracks self deprecating jokes   in peak millennial humor, always very  clearly having a great time with  herself while she created delicious and usually uncomplicated food. 

After graduation, she began  to work and train in the kitchen full time under the same talented chef while she half heartily hunted for a job in journalism. She began to consider doubling down in her insta career when she got a call from Time Out magazine  who had seen her instagram, offering her a bi monthly recipe column to follow their restaurant reviews, along with alternating postings in the food & drink section on their online presence. Without hesitating she took the job, leaving the kitchen that trained her to continue the brand of ‘Nora’s Kitchen’.

Now she balances writing for Time Out and putting out daily content on her instagram.  She rarely sleeps more than five hours, and is attempting to live that life of having your cake and eating it too.  She moved to Crown Heights shortly after quitting the kitchen. She is a hustler who is occasionally manic and often stressed, but she’s always doing her best.

She has an older brother who moved to New York City a few years before she made her own way there. They meet up once a month to take the train to Jersey together for a Sunday dinner at home, and usually end up grabbing lunch together once or twice between trips home. 

After sharing her apartment with a "lifestyle blogger” who she met through  a self-marketing class for a year,  Nora briefly considered leaving Crown Heights because she couldn’t take the gut wrenching guilt of telling the  girl should couldn’t bare to resign the lease with her.  However “destiny” (a direct quote from Veronica) intervened and her ex-roommate  decided to go backpacking and eat pray love her  way through Thailand from the gram. Nora dropped Veronica off at JFK with a grin before turning around to go pick up an old friend from college, Julius Rowe, who was going to move into her newly empty room  that same night. 

She also picks up extra work at the Bean Brew to make some extra cash, baking fresh muffins, scones, pastries and occasionally bagels twice a week.

SHIPPING INFO        /       answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog.   /            REPOST   don’t reblog.

WHAT’S YOUR OTP FOR YOUR MUSE ?  

jd/onica always will fuck me up. it’s such a good and complex dynamic and there are so many routes it could go that it’s hard not to ship them, like? great characters and i’m so #blest that amy’s characterization of jd flows so nicely with my veronica tbh.

WHAT ARE YOU WILLING TO RP WHEN IT COMES TO SHIPPING ?

i’m not big on hate ships or smut so those aren’t likely to pop up on my dash, particularly because veronica Is mainly underage so it’s not something i want to emphasize.  veronica is a very emotionally distant person so anything where they’re friends and she Slowly opens up or breaks down walls is always fun. i’m up for a ton of stuff shipping wise, but veronica has a pretty set type that makes it hard.

HOW LARGE DOES THE AGE GAP HAVE TO BE TO MAKE IT UNCOMFORTABLE ?

veronica kind of prefers slightly older men, but only 17+ veronica will date anyone over 18, and even then it can only be up to, say, 25 ish? Like the older guy has to be in college if she’s still in high school. but once veronica is in college and is of age, she’d potentially date someone ten years older, but i can’t really see it happening.

ARE YOU SELECTIVE WHEN SHIPPING ?  

kind of? there has to be a chemistry between veronica and the muse and me with the mun, but i have to say veronica is 800% pickier than i am when it comes to shipping.

HOW FAR DO STEAMY MOMENTS HAVE TO GO BEFORE THEY’RE CONSIDERED NSFW ?

once clothes come off or it goes south, i guess?

WHO ARE OTHER MUSES YOU SHIP YOUR MUSE WITH ?

nobody else in heath.ers. it’s completely ooc for veronica to go after anybody else in the film/musical, she really can’t stand most people in it. BUT! i do ship monica’s romeo with veronica to hell and back, they’re a Balanced Pair and i’d kill for them. also seriousdeviant’s billy loomis has veronica’s attention.

DOES ONE HAVE TO ASK TO SHIP WITH YOU ?

i mean? if the muses are just going that way, no. monica and i never discussed shipping prior, it just happened. however, if you’re interested in shipping, you can ask and we can definitely see if it goes anywhere.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU LIKE TO SHIP ?  

i’d ship more but veronica isn’t the most romantically inclined person and i prefer developing other kinds of relationships.

ARE YOU MULTISHIP ?  

yes’m

ARE YOU SHIP OBSESSED OR SHIP MORE-OR-LESS ?

ship more-or-less???

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SHIP IN YOUR CURRENT FANDOM ?  

j.donica is the only ship that remotely makes any sense for the characters, so.

FINALLY, HOW DOES ONE SHIP WITH YOU ?

if you write with me, talk with me ooc, come to me to plot, or we have chemistry, you’re pretty much set.

In 1995, a mid-market lingerie brand headquartered in Ohio decided to host a fashion show. Staged in New York’s plush Plaza Hotel, some of the biggest supermodels of the time—Stephanie Seymour, Veronica Webb and Beverly Peele—were recruited to walk.

Models wore modest bias-cut slips, cheongsams and bralettes on the runway, accessorised with cardigans, prim handbags and plaid dressing gowns—wearable, yes, but lacking a certain razzle-dazzle. There were no TV cameras, no music performances, and certainly no wings. Some model castings were done over the phone. A few hundred people saw it, and virtually none of the journalists in the room chose to cover it.

Fast-forward 22 years and the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show has changed almost beyond recognition. The TV broadcast is watched by a global audience of millions, accompanied by live performances from the world’s biggest pop stars—Taylor Swift and The Weeknd among them. Models undergo months of rigorous training, donning expensive, elaborately constructed outfits that can weigh upwards of 30 pounds.

But the first show, masterminded by Victoria’s Secret executives Ed Razek and Monica Mitro, gave a glimpse of what the modern fashion show was to become. Celebrities—including Donald Trump and Russell Simmons—dotted the front row at a time when the prime seats were reserved solely for editors and models dominated the covers of magazines. Victoria’s Secret understood the power of celebrity in fashion well before the fashion industry itself did.

Below, six attendees of the original Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show tell us what it was like.

Catherine McCord Then: Model Now: Chef and entrepreneur

“I remember the fittings, Ed [Razek] was there and so was Monica [Mitro]. I was totally nervous—oh my God! You forget that back then it was all about print, and the Victoria’s Secret catalogue was everything. Back then, you were either a runway and magazine model, or you were catalogue, but somehow Victoria’s Secret was able to break that boundary. I don’t think the show prep was intense in the way it is now, but I do remember doing lymphatic drainage, and having lots of leg massages. It’s comical when you look back at the photos—we were almost fully dressed. There were cardigans! Even so, I did feel scantily clad. I’d done shows in London, Milan and Paris, but I remember getting to the end of the runway and suddenly feeling self-conscious because the atmosphere was different. It was more a mix of normal people and journalists. I’m sure I remember seeing Donald Trump in the audience. Models didn’t have publicists, we were just throwing off our clothes, we were naked—I’m on the more conservative side, and I don’t think any of us thought twice about it.”

Ron Galella Then: Paparazzo Now: Retired

“I didn’t pay much attention to the audience—I couldn’t stop looking at the models. The models were the heroines. I know some of the models were nervous, but they never showed it, they were so graceful on the runway. Today they go overboard with the costumes; they have wings, they have gimmicks. In 1995 they didn’t have all that: the models were the main event. I think that something got lost; to me the first show was best. If you have Stephanie Seymour on the runway, what more do you need?”

Veronica Webb Then: Model Now: Model, writer and founder of Webb On The Fly

“I was lucky, my casting was a phone call from my agency saying, ‘Go to your fitting for the show’. [Victoria’s Secret executive vice president] Monica Mitro is one of the nicest people you’ll ever want to meet and she supervised every fitting personally. I had this white corset with white stockings and suspenders and white high heels. I think I did nearly 1,000 squats the week before and went on a ketogenic diet to reduce bloat. You’re in your underwear so it’s all about your body and how strong and healthy you are—there’s nowhere to hide a single body flaw. It was a great exercise in overcoming fear and self-consciousness. But it is a show like no other. It was a big, glam pyjama party with all your besties sharing the spotlight.”

Gail Elliott Then: Model Now: Designer and founder, Little Joe Woman by Gail Elliott

“I walked thousands of runways for 24 years and the two I remember are the first Victoria’s Secret show and Gianni Versace’s ‘Freedom’ show. Back then, backstage was almost as exciting as the shows. Champagne would be flowing and all the models’ boyfriends—who were actors, movie stars, rock stars, musicians and screenwriters—were photographed having fun. I don’t remember it being stressful or feeling nervous, although I guess doing a show in my underwear should have been. I probably wore less clothing at Versace shows! During the show there were a lot of wolf whistles from the audience. The audience wasn’t there to buy: Victoria’s Secret’s vision for the show was different and they’ve certainly kept it up today with the Angels, pink planes and mega hype. It’s a clever company.”

Holly Brubach Then: Style editor, New York Times Magazine Now: Author and screenwriter

“I have only the dimmest memory of that first show at the Plaza. It doesn’t surprise me that there wasn’t much coverage back then. I do recall that most members of the fashion press regarded it as not ‘legitimate’ in terms of design and trends, more of a mall brand. Which it was. But I thought it was such an interesting phenomenon, and I’m not surprised that it has been such a big media success. I think of it as being in the same category as the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue—something that gets a lot of attention and builds a ‘halo’ around the brand. The product is sort of beside the point.”

Ingrid Seynhaeve Then: Model Now: Founder of June 7.2

“I was very proud to be opening the show. It was quite nerve-wracking, as we were in lingerie and I was used to the couture and high fashion shows like Valentino, Ralph Lauren and Dior. You have to walk in a sexy way, playing with the camera, feeling—and looking—like a million dollars with not much on. But it was a fun change to have eye contact with the public and cameras, and to make a statement at the end of the runway. The show grew bigger and bigger each year, I think I must have walked the show five times. It helped with our day rates and became the most prestigious show to do. It gave me a voice as a model afterwards as so many people saw me in interviews on TV.”
