So happy this is here and cannot wait to buy every single thing you suggest πŸ˜… I’m always looking for smiley goods, big poofy sleeves and skirts and massive dresses ✨✨ I found so many gems through Studio B, you def introduced me to some brands that are now my favourites and I can’t wait to discover more!

Well Rachael you sound EXACTLY like me! πŸ˜‚ big poufy pretty things, sparkles, smiles, volume (the bigger the better) are always what I’m looking for! πŸ’— Aw I’m so glad you loved Studio B before, thank you for always supporting! I really do think this will be such a great way to share all I know, and love, and keep on finding, with people - without the restrictions of having my store, so many parts of doing it I did love, but I always wanted to tell people about all the amazing things and lovely brands / makers I came across.. but then sort of couldn’t as it wouldn’t have made sense to promote things I wasn’t actually selling (and that part was hard work enough!). But now I can divulge all my secrets! πŸ’« xx

I’m so happy you’re back! I’ve missed Studio B so much - your edit was always AMAZING and basically the only place I bought things from in the end. Thank you for setting this up and will definitely become a paid subscriber once I figure out how to jump from the app! Actually wearing one of your perfect necklaces right now - the Wald Berlin smiley faces pearls :) Very long message but again, so thrilled for us all!! Xxxxx

Aww Issy thank you so much for such a lovely message ☺️ I love to hear you’re wearing the smiley dude necklace too! I still wear mine all the time and I’ve had my one years and years now! πŸ€πŸ’›

Thank you for always supporting and shopping with me before, and thank you for sticking with me waiting for this, it really does mean so much πŸ₯Ή

And I really do think you’re going to love this, basically Studio B unfiltered haha now I can tell you everything I love (with no restrictions of just what I was selling before)… and I’ve got so much to share!! Xx

And sorry Issy I meant to answer you about the app / paid subscription - it’s really weird but you can’t upgrade to paid on the app, for everyone (not just mine - but I don’t know why!). But if you open on the website instead it should work fine πŸ‘ or there should be a button to upgrade in your welcome email 😊 . Just let me know if you need any help! And the biggest thank you for wanting to update to paid ❀️ xx

Such an amazing idea! I'm based in Dublin so Studio B purchases post Brexit were a challenge. I saw your post about the Substack having just spent a VERY boring hour trawling through fashion sites in the hunt for something 'different'! I'm just 5ft so the length is always against me ;)

I'm SO happy to be able to steal your style again! xxx Bring on the SLEEEEVESSSS!

Hi Sharon! Ahh it’s so nice to hear from you 😊 thank you so much for sticking with me waiting for this… I really think you’ll love it!

Less scrolling, more special / specialist haha that’s what I keep saying (totally know what you mean about mindless scrolling and not finding anything exciting, I’m all about the sweaty palms, heart stopping, I will love that forever, pieces!).

And don’t worry length isn’t such an issue, most the time so easy to alter. I’m just under 5’4 (and shrinking! Really 5’3 and a half) so not tall by any means!

Hopefully you’ll find some brands and nee discoveries you love (I’ve got some made to order makers that I love to mention over the coming weeks too, so good for length as they can do bespoke πŸ‘).

And maybe with some of the European brands (I’ve got loads of them, especially for summer) Brexit might work for you if you’re still classed as the EU for shipping. Drives me mad still years later over here!

But thank you again and YES bring on the big SLEEVES! πŸ˜‚ loved that comment.

Have a lovely weekend, new updates coming mid - end next week!

Xx

Hi SS!

Oh lovely Sharon thank you so much for the sweet message, and as always for the support ❀️ . Thank you for sticking with me, and for always believing in Studio B!

Really it does mean the world and I really really hope you enjoy this new chapter on here 😊 . I have such a good feeling about it... and so many ideas for next year too I want to develop around it too. But I am loving this space for telling you all my secret sources and all the things I find I love; it's so nice to actually get them down on record and tell people everything I know!

Thank you again and happy Christmas!

I’m so very thrilled you’re back! I had all my friends thinking I was very fashionable and then didn’t know where to go when studio B closed down πŸ™ƒ but sounds like you’ve found a balance in your life!! I’ve already made some purchases so getting my fashionista title back …

I’ve actually just gotten engaged and am having a very quick wedding (not pregnant I swear!) and am hating all the dresses I’m seeing so wondering if you have any fun suggestions up your sleeve (I’m thinking colour or white or puffy! Nothing formal!!)

Hi Adrienne!

Ohh thank you so so much for the lovely comment ❀️ I’m so glad you’re enjoying this and the biggest thank you for always supporting Studio B and for bearing with me waiting for this! I really do think it’s going to be a great place to share all I know, love and find 😊 … with no restrictions to just what I stocked before.

Hopefully people find it helpful and make some lovely new discoveries. A new journey but lots of ideas for this year!

And congratulations to you!! The loveliest time, soak it all up πŸ’— and a quick wedding sounds perfect (small and quick was what I had in mind a few years ago, but then Covid hit - which aided the small haha but not the quick!).

Anyway to the point - white and puffy! Omg I got so excited when you said this as I’ve seen the perfect thing - which comes in white and in red too for a colour option (which I actually want myself!). And it is in sale now too! https://loefflerrandall.com/collections/sale/products/suzette-so-cream

I also just this morning, whilst looking for something else, saw this (again in sale - now is a great time!), less puffy but could be very cute: https://www.homeofhai.com/product/juliette-dress-in-ivory

I’d also try looking at The Vampires Wife in sale right now (just google for stockists as they have a few). They’re usually quite pricey, but they do so many amazing dresses that I always think would be a dream for a more casual wedding.

Hope that’s some help! Xx

Thank you so much for your help!! I suffer from crippling indecision and have yet to make a purchase and I LOVE the loeffler randall dress in the red - but it's final sale and I have commitment issues!!! Hopefully I make a decision soon because I' driving myself mad. Anyways so happy you're back and loving your directory of lovely things xxx

Hi Bethany, I've followed your Studio B instagram for a few years and bought some lovely dresses from you (love a dress!!). I've never subscibed to anything like this before and am loving your "directory of lovely things". Hope it all goes really well for you! Jenny x

Hi Jenny!

Hope you’re really good, aha I remember! πŸ’— thank you so much for always supporting Studio B over the years 😊 and the biggest thank you for coming over here and subscribing ! A new chapter, but I think it’s going to be an even better one!

It’s all quite new isn’t it this platform (well to us, it’s been huge in the US for years now!) but I’d been thinking for years how can I share all my knowledge, and all my sourcing and secrets, but actually turn that into a job! I mean it is a nice thing to do, but it all takes so much time and effort, way more than you’d think! But I’m really enjoying getting into the writing.

And I’m so so glad you’re enjoying it, that really does mean the world to me ❀️ I’ve got so much to share and so many ideas / plans for this year for on here. Lots of special things to come!

Thank you again, truly I’m honoured i’m the first Substack you’ve subscribed too! Yey! Xx

Hello Bethany! Honestly so glad you’re doing this, I love fashion and all things clothes but all the trawling & screen time it involves is looooong and I don’t know half the brands you do so this is literally like a one stop dream and definitely one I am very happy to pay for! Knowledge is a resource!

We used to live so close in SE London, we’ve recently moved to Canada for a wee while. Just read your article about why you stopped doing Studio B and it’s sounds beyond gruelling, this is a great fit. Really hope it works for you! Anyhoo just wanted to say hi.

Laura xxxx
