Yes, hard to find good tops. I started to wear necklaces half year ago, never wore them before. But they elevate a simple tee

good idea, one of my resolutions this year is to focus on jewerly more, with mixed success thus far:) I've seen these very cool ones by https://eviemarques.com, maybe will pull a trigger at some point

I relate so much to good swimsuits that actually work being hard to find. I’m both tall and bustier. Apparently an impossible combination. Somehow swimsuits are never long enough, so if you want your larger breasts not to hang down then you have to compromise for your legs being exposed high above hip bones. I hate them and own only one which I use for winter bathing in Copenhagen canals.

I feel you! Do not have the tall issue myself, but can imagine the search must be exhausting

I agree with so much here. Longer sleeve tshirts impossible! The dress situation always confounds me when I'm not wanting something too revealing but still modern. And as for boots, black seems to be the default colour in winter ; so hard finding something interesting but pragmatic. In fact I find winter shoes difficult fullstop. I bought some acne boots a couple of years ago but due to their delicate nature, don't end up wearing them. I'm so sick of sneakers so have just bought the Tibi Nacho loafer which leans slim but still has enough durability...thus far. It's currently winter where I live so we shall see.

indeed, and in boots design and delicate nature is a challenge. Will see how it goes this year, I hope there will be some new designs and options as brands start introducing their fall collections!

Completely agree. It's next to impossible finding elevated T shirts with actual sleeves. Pretty much everything is sleeveless or with a capped sleeve, neither of which appeal to me.

I agree on the swimsuit situation. Have a look at Australian brand Zimmermann. I’ve been buying it for over 10 years. Their swimwear is stunning - colours and styles. The fabric is excellent quality, cuts are flattering and, importantly, some pieces have removable padding in the cups!

Thank you! I remember seeing them long time ago, but will have a closer look - Aussie brands generally are very good with beach and summerwear in general
