I feel like the main character trait every EIHG (that I've known) is that she has nothing to prove and that informs her whole way of being. Her place in this world as a person of consequence was preordained, she's a legacy, and though she wears this mantle lightly, it mostly inures her to the grubby, unglamorous labor of figuring it out most of us constantly perform. There's a lightness because of it one simply can't buy. And, sometimes I think she's a fascinating person (and as you said, muse-like!) to be around because it frees up her thoughts for so many other amazing things. Wouldn't we would all secretly or not so secretly like to be as unburdened by our own self consciousness as she is?
YES YES YES — exactly (!!!) on having absolutely nothing to prove and existing in this form of grounded weightlessness that creates SPACIOUSNESS for her beingness to fully emerge in all (sometimes contradictory)ways.. without shame or judgement or any need to restrict. It’s so amazing. You’ve nailed it, I am obsessed with everything you’ve said❤️
WOW??!!! Beyond !!!! And yes I hope so, pls take your time!!!! I wanted this to feel like you’ve just received a copy of FT x HTSI on your doorstep Saturday morning and you spend the rest of the weekend combing through at leisure❤️ intentional slowness, the luxury of all!!!!
You want the original maison in the Marais, hmu when you come to France and I'll intro you to my guy there 🙌🏼 (also well worth visiting the Foundation next door - always something beautiful on exhibit PLUS Azzedine's preserved workroom).
I’m hoping my parents (WHO HAVE BEEN SENT THIS GIFT GUIDE) will read between the lines on the yearning😂 if not…. Let’s do it together, that’s the only other way❤️
OMG this is simply the most natural next step for us…… however I stand by the fact that I WANT TO BUY U MV as a push present !!!!!!!! send that wishlist over queen

excellent find
Do you have a favorite EIHG in literature? Also, I yearn for that pinky ring, the combination of minimal yet ornate is where I prefer to live 🖤
Hmmmm ok I have been told by a reader that my writing is Edith Whartonesque (😭😭😭) so I think I’d have to say Ellen Olenska!! Age of innocence?
Putting Age of Innocence on my reading list! Thinking maybe Anna Karenina is a EIHG too
I have that chocolat Alaïa bag on me rn and am so happy you find it chic (also if you buy it in Europe it's sub 3K just sayin) 💖
Omg im coming this spring …… 👀👀👀👀 if I don’t find luck at H im heading here
You want the original maison in the Marais, hmu when you come to France and I'll intro you to my guy there 🙌🏼 (also well worth visiting the Foundation next door - always something beautiful on exhibit PLUS Azzedine's preserved workroom).
Omg im ALSO coming to Paris this spring I’d LOVE omg omg omg
A+. No notes. Chef’s kiss.
Also, you should pull the trigger on the Métier bag. (Duh.) If you need emotional support, I will accompany you to the store in SoHo. 😂
