Hi Anna, I’m signed up for notifications on your Vinted so notified when you list, and sometimes I see things that I remember you buying and loving on your YouTube or Instagram - and always think to myself, oh I’d love to know why she decided to sell this on. Part nosiness part to learn from as trying to minimise my wardrobe but struggle to part with things that I haven’t worn in a long time or never worn at all! I was wondering if it may make an interesting post - items you decided to sell on, why you bought it/loved it at the time and why you decided to part with it. This may be interesting to no one but me, but thought I’d mention it x

Yes, yes, yes! This is such a good post idea! I can definitely do this! I feel like I could learn a lot from doing a deep dive too! x

Seconding this - specific items I'm wondering about are the leopard print Loewe Barcelona bag (which you decluttered ages ago, but you recently bought an even daintier leopard print bag), your Whistles leopard print coat (looks like you have a similar item on your Notion wish list) and your Realisation Par leopard print skirts (because you mentioned leopard print skirts on a recent weekly wish list). Interested in knowing if you have any regrets, and if/how your style has shifted (like, are stiffer minis > silk minis? was the leopard the wrong scale or tone)

SUCH good points! I'd say it's a terrible trait of mine - selling things to only rebuy a few years later. I'm trying to get out the habit! The Barcelona bag was just a bit too stiff (although I'm kinda sad I sold it - I think I would use it more now). And the jacket and the skirt just didn't fit anymore post-baby. My waist and my shoulders just ain't the same! x

Love that Doen blazer and you’ve inspired me to pop over to Sorbaras. Also— a weekend in BK + Slow Horses in the hotel room? Bliss!

I love everything about this but I had to comment about your pancake caption. We call these "tablecakes"! Love to see it.

Oh my gosh I love that! I need Tablecakes with every meal x

I LOVE all of the BK action here, itinerary is *chef’s kiss* it disappoints me when folks travel to NYC and skip a BK trip! The rosemary ham sandwich from Depanneur is EVERYTHING 💗

So glad I did you proud! Will have to add that sandwich on my list next time x

I guess I rarely wear sandals in NYC for the same reason (Birkenstocks are the exception because your feet are raised off of the ground)...

In terms of your packing, I am very impressed that you brought white pants and shorts to NYC! I live here and almost never wear white bottoms because the city (despite all of its wonderful assets) is really dirty! That's why so many people wear black. Couldn't deal with having to be so careful if I packed so minimally.

Good point!! I did pack my tide pen in my bag too! x

This was such a lovely read Anna. Loved the photos of looks (chic and streamlined-will definitely take into account for my next trip!) and food and all the rest! Gosh, those Toteme leopard shoes just elevate every outfit!

Thanks Carina - I'm so glad you enjoyed! x

So impressed with your light packing -- sweet freedom. And how hard the green sweater works for you. Just holding it makes the shorts look so magical. I think you really know how to vacation -- in spite of the questionable decision to work out ;-) XOXOXO

Haha - sometimes the workout is fun and other times it turns out to be more of a funny 'bit' - this one was the latter ;) x
