Do you mind sharing where your black cropped tank that you wore with the bona pants is from? I need a cute tank with thicker straps like that.

Of course, happy to do so! It’s the Canyon Knit (https://go.shopmy.us/p-4252006) from Ref but it’s sadly sold out. I also have Ossie (https://go.shopmy.us/p-4251838) from Ref and I wear this one a bit more and it also comes in black. The front is double lined, which I really like. I would say the straps are about the same thickness as the Canyon.

Thank you!! How’s the quality of the 2nd tank in your opinion?

I’ve worn it almost weekly for over a year and it’s held up very well. I have only air dried it and its kept it shaped very nicely. I personally like that it is double lined. I feel very secure and don’t feel the need to wear with a bra.

Our wishlists are on the same wavelength! Also waiting for those bona pants to come back….

I’d love hear what you’re eyeing that’s similar! Also very much regret not buying them last summer.

I've been thinking about the Essen sandals forever, but I have a wider/bunion foot so I'm thinking they're not going to work. I ALSO haven't pulled the trigger bc of return shipping. The reviews say they run narrow, so you're probably in luck :) they look beautiful! And I've literally been stalking those pants in bona all year. ARE THEY EVER COMING BACK? I'm thankful for the intel on Haystack.

Same here! I keep wondering when (if?) they’ll restock the satin pants in Bona. I want them desperately. Also appreciate the intel on the Haystack colour because I’ve been so close to pulling the trigger on them several times but the colour always seemed off to me!

My guess is that they will because I'll randomly see a few sizes in stock. I wish they had the ability to sign up for restock alerts. I'm actually waiting to hear back if they plan on restocking anytime soon. I'll keep you posted!

Of course, I was hoping it was going to be another neutral but I was so disappointed.

I've bee kind of hoping that they would show up at a online retailer in the meantime but no luck yet. I mentioned A.EMERY in the article, no idea on how they run but they may work for you. That is me assuming since most don't work on me. They have lots of cute styles too.

I really hope they come back! Anytime the link is left up by a brand I assume that means a restock is coming. So i'm hopeful for that!

I ADORE THESE KIND OF POSTS! Literally someone hand me a spoon so I can gobble it up. I am also *so* fascinated by how people move through their wishlist items (what stays, what goes, why does it go, etc.) so this was an incredibly fun read. You obviously have such a clear direction for your closet and I envy you so much for that because I admit that I do so much random scrolling and building my wishlist that way (trying to get over this habit).

PS- I am obsessed with the Vince satin pants and that bone color looks so great on you!

Thank you so much, Kelly!! 🤍 oh gosh, it doesn’t feel like I have a clear direction but I do think I have a slightly clearer idea compared to previous seasons. It takes so much trial and error honestly. Don’t be fooled, I am still a victim to random scrolling and almost being fooled by a random item.

Thank you!! They felt luxurious and look so beautiful on. I’m a bit sad I didn’t buy them last year but they’re a splurge so I knew I had to be super sure before buying them.
