I really like the way you talk about sizing – it's so useful! I was lucky enough to snag the Black Ryders on a Net-a-Porter UK sale last year for like a third of the price. And even though they are 'pushed' (for someone my age 60+) I haven't regretted my purchase, as they are so versatile. I purchased size 30 and they're a touch big. But better big than small. I am short waisted with longer length legs, so they sit very high on me.

I am glad how I talk about sizing resonated. It is pretty simply about body measurements and how we want things to sit, right? But when I was younger I would get caught up in the number. No more!

I am so glad you got the ryders!! I bet they look great.

Thank you for the sizing advice … it was very easy to understand and reference back to how you wear them … so I can figure out how I want to wear them ! Perfect !

So glad that was understandable. Thinking about sizing in this way is also how I get my sale item sizing correct 🙈

Some great advice, this is the process I take my clients through when identifying their style words and you’ve summed it up perfectly! I love how your teaching us all to know ourselves better the way you do

& wish I’d tried the Ryder on when Tibi visited the UK, so good

Thanks for saying that! Knowing ourselves is so hard but so key in my opinion to be happy with your own style.
