Perfect, I recommend 02 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m here to recommend things again: what I’ve recently purchased, watched, read, listened to, put on my face, looked up repeatedly on resale websites, etc.There will be a lot of listening this time because it is honestly unbelievable how many podcasts I listen to. I walk a lot, especially now, while I’m in this slightly strange transitional/crossroads/where’s my life going period, and walking is very good for that because technically you are doing something while also avoiding doing several othe

Please make yourself comfortable. This one has been eight years in the making, and it ends with squirrels, so stay with me.The shoe in question is the ‘‘Epulet Stretch Mule by Robert Clergerie’’. A block heel, stretchy, elegant, a little bit sporty, looks very comfortable, and it’s basically the exact shoe I would design if I were to design shoes. I saw a picture of them online, I don’t even remember where or when, probably eight years ago now, and something in me just went: those, those are min

Well, first of all, this was my bag. I sold it for around €120, and the person who bought it is now listing it for €450… It really annoys me. Not that I even have a right to be annoyed. The game is the game (watching The Wire comes with side effects), and it is a fair game… but still. Why didn’t it even occur to me that it could be priced so high?

A Few (Hot) Things (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You know what I’ve been interested in lately? Branded resale! I really like this idea of brands doing their own resale, like Soeur, like Patagonia, like many others.
