Glad I found your Substack—so much of this resonates with me (as a nippies-wearing Torontonian). I feel like I leaned really hard into structured pants after recovering from birth, but have been craving flowier pieces like your gingham dress lately. Also love your shoe edit—how are the Tabis? I’ve been eyeing those but hate buying shoes online.
As always, a very niche delight, Nicole (even when you’re describing uncomfortable sh*t). Also I’ve been eyeing that pink or like green babydoll dress at GravityPope online! (But … a LOT for a simple sundress…). And also rather digging that BicycleFree maxi dress — bc I’m a fool for an empire waist. Bottom line though — I hate dressing for summer. Today’s weather is ideal, bc my comfort zone almost always includes footless tights and when I’m forced by our infernal summers to switch to little undershorts? I’m tantrum-adjacent ….
Yeah I do feel like I would have bought the dress from GP to appease sensory guy but the price made me pause. Runaway Bicycle dresses are so good and really well priced! I should own more of them!
