“Edit your life frequently and ruthlessly. It’s your masterpiece after all.” I’ve been reflecting, in recent months, on what Coco & Vera is here for – if I get right down to it, I’ve been asking myself exactly why I still show up here two to three times a week. When I look back on old posts, the joy I took in writing them is obvious. An abundance of enthusiastic adjectives appears in article after article. Words like wonderful, lovely and gorgeous pirouette their way through my paragraphs.

My travel uniform came together almost without my noticing. I’ve talked honestly about my struggles with packing for our three-month trip. I had made a real effort to pack pieces I would want to wear regularly. But what I found is that in the two years I’ve spent wearing activewear while working from home, my tastes have changed a lot. Some of the pieces in my suitcase, at one time well-loved, just didn’t work for me anymore.
