YOLO x Goral Sneaker

lauren — Thu, 29 May 2025 12:24:28 +0000

I was first introduced to the British brand Goral several years ago through my husband, Matt, via the menswear scene. They sent us two pairs of their Mellor sneaker, white and navy. I took the white ones and wore them to death (and still do), while our deputy editor, Alex, took the blue ones. After seeing her wear them in everything from dog walking attire to a business meeting with a blazer, I was jealous. I tried to buy them, but they had discontinued them in that color, so I suggested we bring them back and do a Yolo sneaker together. Alex and I are so obsessed with them—in comparing notes, Alex loves the comfort of the super-cushioned heel, especially for all the walking she does while traveling, and I love that I can wear them like slip-ons, never unlacing them, but also that they are so perfectly minimalist and un-shouty.

I love that this is truly a sustainable sneaker—Goral only makes shoes to order (meaning they aren’t over-producing and just hoping that the inventory moves). Also, they come with a lifetime guarantee, so you can send the shoes back for resoling and refurbishment—including a new leather insole and fresh pair of laces!—which is amazing.

Yes, it’s more expensive for a sneaker, but it’s a classic shape that’s completely timeless—with a choice of white, black or gum soles—made according to classic principles of shoemaking. And knowing you’re supporting a small company out of the UK that’s making them to order is something you can feel good about.

YOLO Journal Summer Issue 19

lauren — Tue, 27 May 2025 17:26:18 +0000

This summer we’re devoting our entire issue to one city, and it’s a keeper. With help from our local friends and insiders, we’re sharing a side of Paris that makes us even more excited to return—even for those who know it well. Of course, we nailed the timeless spots we love: the classic French bistros, brasseries, and grand dining rooms where time stands still—but also the cool new tables, apéro spots, and low-key neighborhood favorites where locals go on repeat. We dive deep into Parisian shopping, from iconic ateliers and bespoke shirting to elevated vintage and handcrafted homewares. You’ll find guides to the best gallery-hopping neighborhoods, compelling niche museums, a game plan for tackling the flea market, and hacks to beat (or avoid) the crowds at the cultural hotspots. Plus ideas for making Paris fun for both parents and kids, so you can seamlessly eat-shop-drink-and people-watch your way through the most enchanting city on the Seine.

YOLO x Il Bisonte Travel Tote

lauren — Wed, 19 Feb 2025 13:33:51 +0000

I’ve been in love with Il Bisonte ever since I discovered it in Florence in my college years, so this collaboration with them is an absolute dream. It’s a special edition of their Laudi bag, conceived to work hard for the traveler, but also for the everyday. We added a trolley strap and lengthened the arm straps just enough so they fit over your shoulder (with a coat on!), but not so much that it drags as a tote. It’s in my favorite Il Bisonte finish—untreated leather—which means that you get to create the patina with it on every trip you take, whether near or far. —Y.E.

Yolo Journal Spring Issue 18

lauren — Mon, 17 Feb 2025 18:51:25 +0000

Spring 2025 romances two main reasons to travel: the journey and the stay. In this issue, our contributors voyage by boat down the Peruvian Amazon; drive though the lush tea farms and lagoons of Kerala, India; journey on a classic rail route from Pretoria to Cape Town; and traverse the lunar landscapes of the Uyuni Salt Flats to the Atacama Desert by 4×4. Then there are trips conceived around fantastically unique hotels: the stately pleasure palaces of Raffles Udaipur & Jaipur; Dar Ahlam, a palm oasis in the Moroccan desert; Desa Potato Head in Bali, both sustainable and design-led; and the charmingly cheerful Casa Lawa in Sicily. Plus, love letters to places that unexpectedly stole our hearts: Genoa, Tofino, and Angkor Wat.

Yolo Journal Fall Issue 17

lauren — Wed, 09 Oct 2024 13:50:47 +0000

Our Fall 2024 issue considers the duality of travel as a source of challenge and comfort. There’s the challenge of distance—a castaway island in Indonesia reachable only by seaplane—and of the nerves: a whitewater ride through the Grand Canyon, Siena’s heart-stopping Palio race. Challenges can be transformative, as in sailing Italy’s Pontine islands on an all-women’s culinary retreat, or a deep-dive into the traditional textile culture of rural Vietnam. But the comfort of the calm and familiar always calls: a crisp fall day in Stockholm with the air scented of cardamom buns, a serene monastery-hotel in Nice, a beloved rental home in Maine.
