Guessing the perfect linen pants are as elusive as the perfect denim jeans- kind of depends on your body shape and personal preferences. High waist, mid or low and how tight or loose you like them. Trying them early in the day as compared to later or on a bloated day (IYKYK) can change the fit.
Anni, I love your eye! I would love to find a shoulder work bag that feels chic, while still being practical (can fit a 14" laptop, comfortable strap). Any ideas? 💞
Anni! Would love to find cute 100% wool skirts (lining can be synthetic but no blends pls!) in mini and/or midi lengths, to wear with ankle and knee-high boots. Ideally with a nice, low-key tartan type pattern that isn't too bonny 🏴 you know what I mean? I'm an EU 38/29" waist 💖
Anni thank you 💖 the Westwood one is so cute and different but sadly it's a 27" waist and i like dessert too much 🥲 love the Joseph and Laura Ashley ones too! Acne is perfect shape but the colour-way doesn't match my wardrobe i think, I'm gonna search for similar. Loved this!
Hi Annie, I love your mission and the beautiful pieces you find. I’m looking for a shearling coat—long, dark color, maybe with a hood? 🙏 p.s. I’m in New York ❤️
Amazing finds! You’re a genius! The Sylvie Schimmel is beyond the beyond! That is the fantasy. Really there all wonderful but I have a question about buying something like a coat with out trying it on. I don’t want to just go by price but I feel it’s a risky purchase—not something a tailor can fix—so I might have to pick how much I’m willing to gamble? What are your thoughts? How would you approach this? I am going to deeply commune with each one and report back to you.
Im happy you like them!! And I totally get it, Judy. If I were you I'd pick the ones I really like and then ask the seller ca. one hundred questions!! And send lowball offers! And also ask re returns. But yes, resale is always a gamble but I personally ask a lot of questions before I buy. I am a bit picky so what's "very good condition" to me oftentimes is different to what it is to a seller!!

I 100% know re bloated and not bloated!! The body changes like five times a day!!

Thank you Caitlin!! What color would you like? Quick thing that comes to mind immediately is…Tod’s on resale!
Ooooh, this is yielding good results! I'm open to many! Burgundy... red... cream... tan..!
since you started with burgundy, let me look for burgundy xx
you are US-based?
Canada! But US works :)

Hi :) I'm a fellow friend from the cereal aisle ^^
I would love to find a nice grey/marine/black cachemire sweater too and I can't find it :( round neckline, not oversized... something flattering
By the way your newsletter is wonderful - I bought the little issey myaike "handkerchief" you mentioned a few weeks ago 🩷
Aw hello and thank you, so nice to hear! The handkerchief!!!
I'm sure we can find a nice sweater. In size S? where are you based?
In Paris !
M would be better but I'm pretty thin so S is fine too I guess, even L in fact
Thaaaaank you 😇
Ahh of course! Paris!! Easyyy! Omg I wanna go back to Paris.
The handkerchief arrived today and it's very cute
Do you like sth like this? brandless and very affordable made in Italy? https://www.vinted.fr/items/5227636470-maglione-cashmere-m-grigio?referrer=catalog

Thank you so much :)
I do thanks ! You're fast :) if you also find a black one I would be very grateful 😅

And I like this in black: https://www.vinted.fr/items/4224420808-maglione-donna-misto-cashmere?referrer=catalog
