I enjoyed all of this so much. The sequin jacket is a stunner and I bought the exact same one on Ebay a few weeks ago. Plan on wearing it with busted up levi's, and black strappy sandals this summer.

This seller has great sequin jackets: https://www.ebay.com/usr/neongrayv

And the same jacket in a medium: https://www.ebay.com/itm/277677854896 (still in my saved list ha!)

Laughed at reading your Martha Sitwell caption because for “Ladylike, but not stuffy” all I could think of was Kimi! That show is fabulous for examples of truly personal style

One of the best parts of the reboot is how distinct and memorable everyone's style is (even if it's Margo's velvet jumpsuit!) Maybe I'll do a "how to dress like the Ladies of London" round-up.... lol

Happy belated birthday! This guide is fantastic. I'm obsessed with that teeny round bag, my keys and lip balm would be living their best life.

tysm!

a specific lip balm purse is kind of genius, actually, as it is what I rummage around in my bag for the most!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Glenn! You’re one of my favourite people on Substack, and I was pleased to see I had read your earlier linked articles.🤘

I completely agree: in order to make vintage work, you have to wear it with modern things, in particular, shoes, accessories and hair.💕

I love, love your posts! I spend at least 20 minutes poring over each one and trying to see if there’s anything I can snag for myself ☺️ currently lookjng for snazzy vintage pants like the gautier ones you posted to go with my new vintage animal print Manolo mules that I scored off Depop (seller is also on eBay, but was able to price it lower on Depop due to the differing fees!!)

Glenn Mae's avatar

Love to hear this and love your dedication to find the best price!

Michelle's avatar

I cannot shy away from a deal 😬 esp bc I’m going to get the mules resoled!

The coats, the shades the dresses put into modern context!!!! You are speaking to my sartorial soul with all of these finds. Saving now for when I need to forage next

Glenn Mae's avatar

Music to my ears! Happy hunting!

So good. The distinction between finding a one-of-a-kind piece and wearing it so it reads as instinct rather than costume is exactly right. The styling is what turns a lucky find into your own.
