Such a fan of a belt. Can truly change or pull together an outfit in a completely different vibe, style, and personality. I am partial to my mixed metal with silver and gold chain belt and a studded Isabel Marant one at the moment though a plain leather belt and even a patterned one will always come through. I am here for the comeback of the belt buckle. All the looks are simple perfection though I am more into the basic looks with the tops and trousers and the belt over the sweater and skirt. Best.

I swear I ask myself “What how do I buy a belt I am so overwhelmed” and you read my mind and voila! Same with the beanies episode a few weeks back. Thanks a bunch!

Sorry to comment twice, though just reread and do not know how I missed this genius line the first time. It is everything. SO TRUE. New hair, thicker brows, or spiritual awakening. Same difference. 🙃

It’s kind of like when you get a haircut or grow out your eyebrows or have a spiritual awakening, and people are like, “You are different but I can’t quite tell why.”

You are the best!! Thank you. Honestly, I feel the same way. Obviously. ☺️

I have said this before though I will say it again, your podcasts brought me a new insight, sometimes lightness and always joy as well, way before this gem of a newsletter. That line truly made me laugh out loud. I think I was more focused on the clothes and thank goodness I reread it. Ironically it was to look back at your lovely jackets/coats.

Love that we all have different perspectives and also feel the same way about others on here too. Always something new to know or learn.

Appreciate this and you! Who makes the Barbour-style coat with the red pockets?

I have this on and off relationship with belts. Sometimes I love and I see the twink they make in the outfit but sometimes they weight on the waist bones 🤪 yet pulled a look a few weeks back where I used a foulard scarf under a button down shirt and on top of a high collar knit and if it wasn’t for the belt the idea would never come together.

Love the barbour-styled look first, the warmth to waist (to contradict myself a bit) next and every other look always 💫

The belt worked because I tucked in the foulard in the trousers 😅
