Perfect!! I’m shorter than you but I know vintage sizing can trip me up, especially in coats where I don’t mind oversize but I don’t want it too small.
Have you tried the Black Honey gloss? It is so so good, very pigmented. Looks better than the Almost Lipstick on me for some reason.
My favourite thing I bought this year are the Aeyde Isa combat boots. I wanted them for like three years and finally did it. They have a taller shaft than most, which makes them a bit edgier IMO, and they’re soooo comfy. (Also I bought the last pair on Ssense before they jacked up the price by like $200 😬)
i haven’t but this glowing review makes me want to! is it sticky at all? that’s what’s prevented me from trying, i hate a sticky gloss. also great taste in boots!! huge win to get them before a price increase phew
Ah. Yeah it is stickier than a lot of other glosses. I use a really thin layer and apply it like I would a stain, so the tackiness just keeps it from sliding off my lips. But definitely could imagine it’s not for everyone!
Oh the Freck Beauty Cheekslime in Jam Sesh is also really good.
(I may or may not have spent an insane amount of time searching for the perfect berry lip this fall…)
both soooo good. i actually just snagged a second pair of still here jeans last night on ebay for $20 (i think the ebay gods were throwing a miracle my way as an apology for the insomnia?) so im praying they fit just as nicely !
Just found your Substack and already highly obsessed with your writing. What size are you wearing in the LL Bean jacket?
thanks kelly <3 I’m 5’8 and went with a women’s large!

totally! vintage sizing is such a gamble, the large ended up being perfect to layer thick sweaters under!

I’ve been debating the Still Here jeans for months so this might be what finally pushes me over the edge… that and the replica fragrance!
