Tell us about the experience - how are you feeling about being away from home? How do you like the city? What's different about the places you've been? What's going on with reno at home and are you stressed not being there to see it? Where is Luigi? Are you finding it difficult to work away from your normal space and routine?
And ideally tell us with a background that isn't just the hotel room 😉
@@Anna-pd6dc completely agree
I think people were just caught off guard because when you mentioned the trip before you left you broke it down to us in a similar way you did Japan and talked of vlogging a 20’ somethings solo travel diary like you did for Japan. Then the vlogs came and they were so different feeling - almost as if we had lost the invite in the post - very exclusive just a glimpse and the rest is private which I think was unexpected. But now you’ve said this it’s very clear that you’re not travelling in a sense you’re just catching up with friends and doing your own thing and it’s only natural to keep those things private so then of course reflected in a vlog that would look completely different! Not sure if that makes complete sense, feels a bit like a waffle, but might give you some perspective?? All the coffees look incred, loving the fashion and the new bag! X
Yes you are right I feel the same like not quite welcome here so what's the point of vlogging? Japan vlogs were extraordinary and I have watched them with my daughter on repeat. Enjoy your stay in NY.
Yeah, these vlogs have been nice but don’t quite have an arc to them the way the Japan ones did. So we’re getting glimpses of Lizzy but don’t feel as connected? Appreciate her for being open to feedback 🧡
@@maianne.4695 well written, it makes a lot of sense
@@saltandchocolate Mary babes that's a bit dramatic
@@saltandchocolate absolutel, just like tanya burr who completely tried to convince us she never did UA-cam for years. However now that she has a new brand she suddenly remembers her old followers
I love your style of travel vlogs, not overly focussing on the high lights, but mostly capturing the “vibe” of the place (for lack of a better word). what I like most are the moments you film of the city with some music playing in the background, and your commentary ofc!
Hi Lizzy! I enjoy how casual these vlogs are because that’s how every day life is. I think what would be helpful is to provide more context as to what you’re doing in nyc especially since you’ve been there for a few weeks and it seems like your stay is going to continue for a few more. Your partnership with Flattered helped provide some context but it’d be great to get a better sense of why you’re in the city so as to ground viewers more. Even if there is no definitive “why” and you simply are enjoying your time and want to stay abroad longer, getting a sense of that would be helpful. But at the end of the day, do what you want because your viewers appreciate everything you create. So glad you’re enjoying the city!
Feel it is so positive that you are asking for feedback. I think you're great and love the conversational nature of your blogs...but would love more of the context of what you're doing in NYC, how long are you planning to be there, what is on your to do list, updates on home projects, maybe some shots of great food or restaurants you've been to. The content at the moment maybe feels a bit disorganised and I think a little context would really elevate it. When you're back in the UK it would also be great to hear more about how you bought your house, budgeting etc...one of the things I do struggle with for much influencer content is the disconnect between the free products you receive to promote and the realities of non-influencer lives and not receiving free products...what are your thoughts on this? This year you've clearly worked very hard, bought a house, gone on an amazing holiday, bought designer handbags but most people wouldn't be fortunate enough to do all of these things in one year even if they were earning a considerable amount of money...I think it's important that you address this to some degree because otherwise it feels a little flippant and maybe as if everyone can easily do these things. I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the weightier topics that surround your industry...you're obviously a great business woman and it could be really inspiring to get a glimpse into this. I hope this comes across as constructive rather than critical...keep evolving and growing...you're great! xx
it's very positive to see someone asking for feedback but sad to see that comments which contain constructive input are beiing removed
Can't please everyone, I love it when you just do you and wander - I would love to see some New York thrift shops if you have some time as they seem to have amazing shops
I love this too! I love to travel vicariously through my favorite influencers LOL.
The new world vlogs have been lovely to look at, but maybe your critic was reacting to their being emotionally disengaged- flat. There is no Luigi to fuss over and adore, no household worries to fret over, etc. You might share a bit of that kind of content in a travel vlog, since travel has its own peculiar anxieties, without sharing relationship information. I think that as your fashion content has become more oriented to rather expensive brands and basic pieces it has lost some of its ‘relatability,’ so we are looking for a sense of connection in other areas of your life. Not very reasonable, I know, but there it is.
I do agree with the point about fashion content becoming more oriented to rather expensive brands and how this causes loss of relatability. I actually feel this less with Lizzy's channel, but 100% it's why I stopped following another UA-camr I love (Gemary, from Miami - absolutely adore her but I really notice that when I see a new video from her I have this distinct thought: "Oh she's going to show gorgeous pieces I adore that are waaayyy out of my price range, so let's not even go there...") I try not to comment about this because I think content creators should absolutely build their content the way they want, and they shouldn't cater to what I or anyone else wants to see...but since I read your comment, yeah...I do feel this too. Less with Lizzy, though more and more frequently her affordable brands of choice are ones not available in the US (e.g. Weekday, Arket). The other thing that causes me to lose interest in a channel is home renovations...that's kind of like, "Eh, if there's nothing else to watch I'll tune into this...," but only because I don't have a home to renovate and the real estate situation right now means I probably never will, and I hate being reminded of that. But again, Lizzy (and every content creator) should definitely do what makes them happy and what pays the rent, and hopefully those are usually one and the same, LOL.
Would love to see some outfits of the week, and your monthly fashion report - really miss those
You could add in getting ready in the morning, hair and makeup, putting together an outfit and so on
Hey Lizzy ! I'm not one to comment any vlog usually, but since you were talking about it, here I go... I personally really love your vlogs and how you come across the internet - as a mature, fun and driven woman! But those past few month, it in fact seems like you are a bit disconnected, not enjoying to share your life with us (and it's totally comprehensible). Personally, I felt this change for the last 6 months. I think it came, for me, from the talk you had about how you were thinking as yourself on the internet, how you reflected on the matters of race and wealth/consumerism (and lighter content is also important, but it is sometimes diapointing to not see the talk continue after big events, even though the reality is stil the same), and it was quite nice to hear your opinion and to witness your engagement. But then, I feel like it fell flat. I am not in any way saying that you have disengaged with those topics, but you don't share your thought process as you once have. For exemple, I feel like you barely talked or explained the book and how you wrote it with Lindsey, or why and how you bought a house, or how you created and designed your shoe collection, or even simple things like what books you are reading and why you loved them or not. I am well aware that the past year and a half was quite complicated and particular, and that sharing your life on the internet must be quite draining and isn't something natural, and seeing you enjoy life as much as you do is really fun!! But maybe your viewers would like to feel like you share a bit more of your thoughts and reflexions (and maybe a bit less sponsored content, it's true), and if you feel up to it, you can continue to include us in that process !! I hope this comment don't come across as mean or too critical, it is just how i personally felt and the reflexion of the comment already present on this video.
Anyway, it is so fun to watch you enjoy yourself and be this happy, plus you are indeed a very talented videographer ! Xx.
this is exactly how I felt too , really well written and explained.
I think this too! Knowing anything about the shoe design process would be so fun in particular! Would think the brand was interested too! Also I must say that the travel blogs is what I would normally do while travelling; ordinary stuff in a different city, probably not super exciting to watch, but may be comforting and calm. Have a great trip!
Hello! I want to say this in the kindest way possible.. Just would like to flag that it's unfair to request less sponsored content from Lizzy. It insinuates that you want all of her hard work (it takes hours and hours to edit vlogs and actually to even plan what you want to share in a vlog each week) to go without any payment. As you mentioned you personally love her vlogs, so the time spent to film and edit them is well deserved of a sponsorship to back it up so she can be paid as this is her full time job. I also think she is a creator who chooses sponsorships that are absolutely perfectly on brand, and for me they don't feel any different to when she discusses content that isn't sponsored. Please just bare this in mind when you are watching sponsored content, nobody expects you to turn up for work without being paid! It's no different for online creators. Lizzy does an amazing job at balancing sponsored and non sponsored content :) xxx
@@ashowens_ I totally agree, and I never said that I was against sponsorship ! I just mentionned that I feel like it was more central in her work than before and that i felt it as a viewer…. I know well that sponsorship is essential in her work, but sometimes it can be a lot, especially when you begin to think about consumerism in general, as I said I would be happy to learn about the content of the partenerships and how it reflect and how it is integrated in her style( like when the collaboration with & other stories was happening : why this piece especially, why it was chosen or maybe rent certain piece like with net à porter at a certain point) as for her shoe collection for example ! I don’t think that my message was focused on this point, I just suggested that it could be integrered differently. But of course I support her work and respect it, and this is why i responded to her interrogations, without, I think, any disrespect. I don’t expect her to do a job without a pay, of course, but i think that in general partnership can be revisted, and this for every brand and influencer! It was à suggestion, and I think we can speak about those topics of we stay respectefull in general! If my comment came accross as disrespectfull i apologize !
@@stellou46 absolutely understand! It’s a tricky one sometimes for both the creator and viewer to put each other in each other’s shoes xx
I love the current style of the vlogs and if you could do a haul similar to your Tokyo haul at the end of your trips, that would be perfect!!
Also I think some of the negativity that I’ve noticed on your account as well as on some of your peers stems from the increasing disconnect in terms of financial means. ‘Regular people’ watch vlogs and have difficulty grasping how something that appears quite easy can earn the means to live so lavishly. I don’t mean this as criticism towards your or your peers. This is a free market and the demand for what you produce is such that you earn seemingly well while appearing to work comparatively little. Whether that’s true or not is a different matter. But vlogs do nothing to dispel this impression of unfairness, because for obvious reasons, ‘work’ is not heavily featured in them. And paired with many expensive bags, clothes, travels, etc, it fosters quite a lot of resentment and jealousy.
Really good point. I think sometimes when the content seems a bit more “lazy” people are led to think the creator can no longer be bothered as they’ve made enough money out of us.
remember that a lot these things are gifted or sponsored. and if not they still get enough money to pay for pieces they really want if most of others stuff is gifted. Kinda hard to really know but I think paid partnerships and collabs, books can explain some of it. But I tend to remember that we only see 20mn of someone s life everyday - someone that is well aware thousand of people are going to see their videos. They won't show the hard difficult part.
@@already8use yes but receiving gifts is also a form of financial compensation derived from the fact that the influencer is popular with a viewership that is conversely not receiving these gifts. Again, this is not a criticism of Lizzie or any of her peers. She is in this position because we enjoy her content. But that comes with some resentment which I think is to be expected. And regarding the 20 min; sure. A vlog can’t contain 5 hours of her on her laptop doing admin.
I was actually thinking that possibly Lizzy's career has kind of diversified a bit (with the shoe collab, the book, maybe other stuff she isn't ready to share yet) and that maybe that's the reason her vlog/UA-cam content isn't "as good" as before. She may literally have a lot more work on her plate, and less time to dedicate to vlogging and UA-cam. It really does take a lot of time and energy to vlog (it's not simply carrying around a camera...you have to really think differently, like not only "where am I going to go for lunch?" but also, "what are the kinds of video clips and shots I can get," plus putting them together, handling the audio, etc. Well-done vlogs are a lot of work. But you definitely have a point about generally influencers having expensive goods...it makes then less relatable. Honestly, if they get them free it's worse to me. If my favorite influencer saved money to buy a specific pair of shoes, my opinion is totally different than if she got them free through a partnership or through affiliations, etc.
@@sovrappensiero1 I think you have a point. Also I keep hearting YT isn’t as easy to monetize so influencers are less and less willing to put work into it, which is fair enough (though personally it’s my favorite medium). I agree about the gifted goods. I think there’s another aspect, which is that influencers feel they don’t owe the viewers justifications. The ‘if you don’t like it, go elsewhere‘ argument. Which has some merit, in all fairness. But also, their viewers are the source to their success. So it’s a difficult position to handle.
Hi Lizzy, I hope you're well.
I'm a long time viewer and I agree with some comments. Some of your content lately I haven't found to be very engaging. I love your fashion sense, but as of late it seems like the way you share your outfits is quite different to before. Maybe most pieces aren't easy to replace for ones with a lower price point? I'm not entirely sure, and I have trouble putting my finger on what exactly has changed.
Private life is private, and personally I'm not to interested in seeing your friends and family in the vlog (I make an exception for Anne of course!!). I love seeing home routine and outfit choices. Some of my favourite content of yours are weeks in outfits and monthly fashion reports.
Anyway that's my 2 cents. xx
I agree!! I'm always bummed when I click a link to realize the loafers she's wearing are £800. Would love to see more affordable clothing featured.
I love monthly fashion reports and week in outfits, or any fashion-related content, too! (Even sponsored fashion content...it's ok by me but better when it's got a personal flair...)
I think it would be nice to see more of the City and you getting coffee or shopping ect. Not just you talking in a room. It's OK when you are at home and you have nothing to do but in a new City and everything people wanna see fun stuff and not just little clips of the fun stuff. And If you are out with friends you don't have to show your friends but the bar or restaurant and the food and drinks
definitely agree! glad im not the only one feeling this way. NYC is so cinematic
One of the best part of NYC is all the different buildings. I would love to see more architecture as you walk around. Also of London once you return home.💕
Would love to see what is inspiring you in New York whether than be streetstyle, architecture, grocery shops, a camera walk with you… how to do frame your shots, what catches your eye, how many photos do you take, my favourite thing you ever did was the video with Anne reading the poem over it- I wonder if you could do that again with the vibe of NY. Also would be interested in how our inspiration from NY might translate into any interior choices you make back at home. 🖤 I loved the dive bars in NY think you would too!
Totally reasonable to keep personal relationships out of vlogs, I never put other people on social media as it seems quite invasive as you say. I like the glimpses of the cities you visit, they seem more candid and like I’m experiencing it as if I was visiting too. So much travel content is shot on drones etc and when I see this style of vlog of cities I’m familiar with I feel like it doesn’t really represent the place in a real way. It’s fun to see a place as you see it and listen to your random chats x
I feel the same about drone travel videos. Like, I am never going to get that view if I visit that place so it just sets up for a bit of a let down.
I would love to see maybe a bit more of your work. Like, what kind of work are you doing exactly? What does it look like? Maybe share some food, some nice food places or something :)
Personally I just love watching your videos for the visuals. I love seeing your clothes, the coffee shop interiors, snippets of NY/LDN streets etc. You have such a natural talent for aesthetics and romanticise life so well. I can understand why you would want to move away from over sharing on the internet and especially around certain people who might not appreciate a camera in the table while they’re trying to connect with friends.
My favourite videos are definitely you pottering around your new home and seeing how to organise it. Always more of those please!
Loved the North American vlogs so far, yes to the music/video montages! When you're back in London would love to see some renovation/decoration content as you have a good eye for design.
Madelynn de la Rosa makes the best travel vlogs in my mind. Some style, lots of culture, food, and the feel of watching a really short movie. And without really showing personal relationships much - or not intrusively.
Personally, I don’t mind you not sharing your personal time with friends. I came here because of you and your art and your videos. I’m thankful enough that I get to be inspired by you to live my own life in my own terms and ways. Love love, Lizzy! xx
I've been very happy with the content! My one bit of feed back (and it may just be me) is that the audio is a bit inconsistent. The talking bits are very soft, so I turn it up, but then the music bits are way too loud. I was constantly adjusting my volume on this one. Again, LOVE you and the content and the fashion and the vibes. Hope this was helpful in some way. Love from Arizona! ❤️
Literally about to comment about the audio, so not just you. I enjoy the vlogs but I have to keep adjusting the volume when the music comes on, and like you said, with some of the talking I can't hear it too well.
I have been enjoying all of your recent vlogs, and I don’t see an issue with what you’ve been sharing with us. You have a signature style to your content that I’m drawn to and inspired by. You’re one of the only UA-camrs whose content I look forward to!
I like that you set boundaries about what you choose to share with your viewers.
I read one of the comments where someone mentioned wanting you to talk more about your film photography, and I agree with them! I would love that. Would also love a chat about how you’ve become so confident with filming yourself and taking your own pics in public while traveling solo. That is something that has always inspired me about you.
Just dropping in here to say I'm loving the travel vlogs. It feels like the perfect amount of footage and description at each location, incorporating a lovely mix of wide establishing shots of where you are, blended with the detail and minutiae of the place. It feels very much like being let into your private life just by being on holiday with you. We're still in lockdown so seeing exotic lands is also thrilling :)
Loving these videos! Yeah videoing the environment of where you are, maybe outfits, bits you bring in your bag day to day! You’re doing really great with these videos ❣️
What I would like to see when you’re visiting places outside of England is more of the place your visiting…The shops the restaurants.. tourist attractions etc, not just “oh I’ve done this today and then 60% of a video in the hotel room. As I definitely clicked on this video thinking..oh New York great I wonder what she does and it’s mostly hotel room and small clips
Agreed.
exactly what I was trying to say but better explained!
Love how watching your vlogs seems like a movie! Totally inspired me to add some elements into my own vlogs,,,, hope they can someday come out as cinematic and nice as yoursssss
Good luck! I subbed :)
One of my fav videos you've ever done is where you discuss your style evolution. I think someone else mentioned this but I love hearing your opinions on style, fit, art, home decor, books, etc! Would love to see more of that weaved into your vlogs.
Still loving your current vlogs, just think mixing up the content/content style keeps things interesting!
totally agree! new york is the sleepy morning city 😂😂😂 also any time there’s a que round the block it’s 110% a sample sale 😂
i have been loving the vlogs, to me it feels like “let’s go on a walk together” so lovely!
I take comfort in how authentic you are and love watching whatever you’d like to share.
Here are some random but specific suggestions for stuff to include in travel vlogs: you building your outfits (trying on jackets, switching shoes, packing your bag etc) while talking about your plans for the day or what the weather is like there; if you visit nice boutiques or shops you could show us around a bit and try on a few items you like; i love seeing beautiful coffeebars, restaurants etc so its always nice to see some more footage of the food, vibe, people, interior; chatting to us while packing or unpacking your suitcase, hotel room tours are interesting too; i find grocery shopping abroad oddly interesting to see too :)
I feel like this could match your style of trying to capture the vibe of a city without overstepping your privacy boundaries, but off course do what feels best for you! You are still one of my favourite creators after all these years, so thank you for vlogging everytime! X
What I’m really interested in is how that new city is affecting your feelings? I was very curious what you wrote down in your journal (as I journal myself) and of course that’s extremely private. But maybe you could share some bits of that that you feel comfortable with?
Also, what you think about the changes in mentality from London to Toronto, Vancouver and now NY! Like how do the people differ the most from each other and what are the biggest differences in daily life there?
I love those random chatty bits like when you talked about daydreaming. Please keep that up as well. Lots of love xx
Im the person who left the supposedly negative comment. I do appreciate the fact that it opened a conversation and definitely enjoyed reading that you guys somehow felt that more could be added. There are already good parts in the vlog especially the montage with music when you can feel the vibe. It's just that NYC is my n1 favorite city and I felt it was a shame that we could not feel enough of the NYC vibe. It s a city where you dont need to be with someone to have so much fun. Thrift shops, art galleries, cute coffee places, great scenery during walks, great people, amazing food etc..that's what I felt was missing. But exciting to see more no matter what content it is! So many great recommendations below. xx
I think it’s time for you to start your channel with your own content so you can make content for nyc to your pleasures as it is //your// #1 city. Lizzy’s vlogs are signature to her and it is telling.
You are still pushing for your own narrative. It’s would not be Lizzy Hadfield content at that point hm? This video and previous videos are no different than her other travel and normal day to day vlogs.
I think you saying ' This must be the most boring vlog I've ever seen', was definitely rather negative and hurtful. It's always good to get mixed opinions, but also helpful to think about how to say it in a constructive way :)
@@kawawawawas I dont live in new York unfortunately but I would definitely if I were to live in NYC longer.
As far as I know giving advice of how a content could be better is not wrong. A lot of content creator ask '' What do you want see, what could be improved etc...' The fact that a lot of people felt that more could be added to these vlogs especially is a sign. I wrote a comment because I care and I have been watching the vlogs for many years now. It's her content but comment section is there for a reason as well.
@alreadybuse... I responded to your comment but it's apparently been removed.. sad to see there is no opportunity for constructive discourse here
i love the atmospheric b roll it’s a great way to capture the mood of a city and it’s really pleasant to watch.
I personally can't wait to get back to the house!! It felt like such a whirlwind buying a beautiful place and then undergoing immediate renos, so much happening at once! And I think to come off that into a chill/slower vibe of travelling new cities is just a stark contrast? I love your style and don't care about affordability/attainability. I love your articulation and wit. I love the way you curate things, and I guess it's fun for me to see that through the styling of your home. I also know it isn't as easy to vlog in public/new surroundings as it is at home where we're most comfortable (so ofc shots are going to be a little shorter bc of that, and it's harder to string those clips together to tell a story) - but to coin a phrase from a few vlogs back, "in for a penny, in for a pound" 🤍
Honestly I think you have to accept that to earn your living by logging you have to give something- obviously not everything but enough to make it worth your lifestyle.sorry if that's sounds harsh just responding to your questions - if you want to be private it may not be the job for you .
Seeing the places you go with friends and the vibe, without the friends themselves. Also I may be odd in this but I’d love to know how your workday breaks down- what does work for an ‘ influencer’ actually entail?! Otherwise I love your wanderings- plenty of other videos to watch if we want a tourist ‘guide’ to a city!
i really love the wandering travel vlogs!! and even any vlog you shoot at all, it's always something i look forward to
I agree with a lot of the comments here already regarding the vlogs and recent content. Obviously sharing your relationships or not is up to you but I think it feels very stark sometimes when you share yourself getting ready and then it snaps to a city shot the next day with no context. Even just a shot of the food, or the venue where you are, would help give context and flow to vlogs and help feel like we are coming along
Thank you for sharing with us at all, Lizzy. I’m a huge daydreamer like you, I almost go into a meditative state whilst walking… hence why I can walk for miles! I’m just happy to watch whatever you’d like to show, after all… surely that’s best, that’s what comes naturally to you and therefore it’s most enjoyable! I can’t wait to visit Canada and the States again v.soon so thank you for inspiring me! Also, awesome music on this vlog! Sending a lorra love your way, Lucy xx
I love your vlogs at the moment, and for the reason you were saying of them not being city trip vlogs but a routine. I'd love one day to go and work abroad in a similar way to you are where its a couple/few months and you're getting used to how it feels to live in that environment - so it's fun to see you living this experience. Also, even if they have been more limited snapshots compared to your london vlogs, you've been so happy and it's shone through the camera and been in the comments for every single video of your trip. I hope that's true to real life, and if so please just keep doing what makes you happy Lizzy!
Personally just loving seeing you out and about and enjoying all the wonders of solo travel, no matter what it is you're doing, or choosing to vlog. I haven't been allowed to leave my state in two years so living vicariously through you! Not picky here...! xx
Love checking in with our stylish and beautiful Lizzy! Your travel vlogs are always the most interesting.
Keep making the videos that make you feel the most fulfilled! I would however love to see an autumn outfits of the week (as I’m also on the east coast and would love some inspo!) and perhaps a more immersive look into the things you get up to on the weekends? Whether it’s exploring a new part of town or popping into some shops or galleries. Sending all the love xx
I love your vlogs. ❤️ Without you sharing certain things, it still feels very personal and comfortable. I don’t know if it’s the music or the way you film parts of the city, but I really like it. It feels like I’ve been to Toronto and New York with you.
Personally been loving the vlogs, just enjoying the glimpses of places I dream of going to, the clothing purchases, the wandering, and seeing you so happy and safe as a solo female traveller. More more more x
This.
Firstly, please post whatever content you feel inspired to post!! The reason I love tuning in to your UA-cam content is because you are genuine, you show us your perspective/your real life, and to me this is what is the most interesting. Secondly, I agree, I actually don't watch any of the high intensity programming available, it effects me tremendously, I've avoided Squid Games even though it's so popular and everyone is loving it!
I've been absolutely adoring these vlogs. seeing small snippets of your days is interesting to me regardless of that you do or where you are because I find you interesting. I think people must've assumed that because you were taking a trip that you'd drop everything and become a mega tourist and show them all the things they wanted to see, when in reality because of your line of work and also who you are (to me you've always come across as laid back, and you seem to settle well wherever you are), your vlogs fit accordingly. I think it's totally unreasonable to leave a comment telling someone what you don't like, when you could just as easily stop watching the video/ unsubscribe. You've had a LOT going on in your life recently, and the fact that you've been able to keep up the content, and keep it at a high standard is a gift as far as i'm concerned.
I hope you still have time to visit the Met! It is incredible there. So many different types of art to see, plus the building and overall ambiance adds a certain aura to the experience that’s just unparalleled. ❤️
Love anything and everything you share here! I love seeing your skincare/makeup routine :)
I personally love all your vlogs, been watching since you lived in Manchester. I really like looking around when you are walking around NYC because I used to live close by in Connecticut, and I miss it so much. Enjoy!
I am loving your travel vlogs, I think they are great just as they are. And you have done heaps of stuff!
i loved your vlogs from when you were living in noting hill, they were real but more colourful somehow? it often felt like we were just facetiming which is nice! there's some good travel vlogs from that time too, like the Italy vlogs
also your ig semmed nicer then as well. the pictures were more artful and creative, w loads of film! would love to see more of that again :)
Would love to see the places you go to in New York and your outfits of the day 🥰
I really enjoying the general vlogging and just feeling like I am in Travelling watching! Your content is always great and enjoying the outfits.
Really enjoyed this vlog! Lovely escapism from rainy Yorkshire :) Would love to hear you talk more about some practical tips & advice around a trip to NYC (vaguely brainstorming a trip for next Autumn!), for example, a bit about the geography of the city, best ways to travel around, what you think of the subway, how safe you feel etc. Looking forward to the next one!
I've been loving the travel vlogs ! I hope you don't feel like this is boring, it's different but I still very much enjoy it and am so exited every time I see one of your videos pop up ! Would love to see a tiny bit more of your looks, like you often do on instagram, in big mirror or windows, as I have been loving your styling lately :-) Also, any update on what you are reading is always welcome ! Can't wait for the next one ! XO XO
More color describing please 🤣🤣 love your content and honestly have really been enjoying your travel vlogs. US citizen here and really appreciate how your just show the states and how just we just kind of exist. Feels very authentic
would love to see anything that inspires you or catches you eye, wether that be architecture, snapshots of people, streetstyle, etc. i love your montages with music too. food when you go out is always great as well! and outfits of course :)xx
Love the style of your vlogs - don't change a thing, keep doing you!!
I love your travel vlogs. I hope you can see the High Line as well as more art museums and the upper east and west sides. As an American I'm most curious about staying in NYC in a hotel for several weeks. It's something most Americans cannot afford to do. Where do you like to eat? What are your favorite neighborhoods?
your videos are always so comforting to me, love you lizzy!
Just keep doing what you’re doing. Love your content, outfits, reviews, city vlogging etc … 👍
Lots of coffee, music and walking content - the best vlogs
I enjoyed the travel vlogs and the content you've been making so far, as some people have already mentioned in the comments, they're really 'artistic' and capture the spirit of the place, they feel natural, unforced;
what I can say I miss is probably some more 'fashion-y' content; 'outfit ideas' type videos as well as just I would personally really enjoy hearing your two cents of various topics/questions: related to fashion, trends etc (but of course not limited to that). I also missed a book talk: reviews/recommandations, but perhaps you haven't had the time for that lately with the recent travels. also interior decoration inspo sounds like a great video - where you draw inspiration from, things you like etc
I'm really curios about more on film photography; how you started, what camera/films you use (and for what); tips, what you found from your experience with shooting on film.// I was looking on the blog at the pics you take, they're gorgeous and there's an obvious improvement from say, two-three years ago. i'd love to hear more on that.
other than that, keep up the good work, it's really paying off :) inspiring and beautiful per usual
These are really some of my favourite videos of yours!! Stunning! Love the thumbnails! xx
I live in NYC and love watching visiting vloggers days as they go about city life. Don’t need to see anything that isn’t in your normal schedule!
I don’t normally comment but I couldn’t help myself this time around. The way you’ve been vlogging has been great in my opinion, every time you shift your content ever so slightly in whichever direction it never feels forced or unnatural to watch. You can’t please everyone for sure but I’m definitely happy with how you’ve filmed things so far. And being from Toronto, I loved seeing it from your perspective, it just felt like you were hanging out same as anyone else.
One of the bigger things i’m looking forward to if you’re up to filming them is renovation stuff/interior design, more of your perspective of NY, etc and of course your adorable cat! I can completely understand the need for privacy and respecting others’ space in your life when it comes to filming, so all in all I trust and support your filming/vlogging decisions ❤️
After reading some of the comments on this vlog, it got me thinking that it would be fun to see a video where you identify some alternatives for your favorite Arket pieces (or Weekday) from brands that are available in the US. I realize that would mostly be to serve US viewers, but I would personally love it-I’ve been searching for good alternatives to the Weekday Rowe jeans (which are often sold out on US ASOS), Arket blazers and those nice Arket men’s sweaters you have. I echo what others have said about your content choices: don’t feel pressured to film everything, you deserve personal time and should get to share on your own terms. Love the city walk/city scape montages, and interludes of you enjoying a coffee somewhere and reading. I’d also love to see some snippets of thrifting in NYC, or going to some of the independent boutiques there (others will complain that they’re too expensive, but I enjoy seeing beautiful things and don’t always need to be able to own them.) I also enjoy a week in outfits, and watching you curate multiple looks with one piece. Thank you for sharing!
I can't help but think of luigi everytime I see a vlog from you! Hope he's having fun with your mumma and daphne 🥰x
I personally really like the walking + music montages lmao I really enjoyed experiencing cities that I've never been to through your eyes :~) As for content suggestions, it would be fun to hear you talk about your film photography more 🌞
Love your vlogs so much!! Would love to see a “come shopping with me in NY” ☺️
I love when do you post more fashion content because I love your style so much!💕 Enjoy NY, Lizzy!
Hey! I'm sure other people have recommended this but just in case not, I thought I would mention that while I'd say definitely visit the Met if you can - it's amazing, and I'd particularly recommend going for one of the late nights because you can have a drink on the rooftop and the temple of dendur is especially nice at night - I'd also really recommend visiting the Neue galerie if you've never been there and have time for it! It's small but beautiful/atmospheric, there are some beautiful Klimt pieces, and getting a slice of cake at Cafe Sabarsky is an nyc institution. And then you can go to the Albertine bookstore a few blocks away, which is quite beautiful as well!
not trying to be negative but going to nyc for at least 7th time and after spending a month in New York and never ever went to the met seems crazy to me as someone who likes art??
I am enjoying the travel blogs. It would be interesting to see if you go into smaller shops and what you buy - that was a fun part of your trip to Japan.
I certainly still enjoy watching these vlogs (a lot in fact!) but I can see how the content and perceived relationship with the viewers has changed over the last little while. It almost feels like a friend has bought a house and has all these things going on but you haven’t had a chance to catch up with them to actually hear about it in ages! On an unrelated note I’m in an area of Canada where COVID is still an every day consideration - despite the caseloads being low, I can’t get past the fact that travelling for pleasure still seems a touch tone deaf. I get a sense from many influencers that they have “moved on” from COVID which is a different kind of luxury many of us can’t afford just yet. That’s not necessarily the sense I get from Lizzy but I definitely think it’s clearer then ever that we live in very different worlds. But Lizzy, your style can’t be beaten, and it’s possible I’m just sad that 1) I don’t have a career that allows me this flexibility and 2) to be missing out on that sweet sweet Reno and Luigi content!! Enjoy the rest of your trip! And quite frankly I’m already waiting for the next video :)
oh I got so nervous by the title saying chat about future content! I had to skip through to see if you were going to announce that you would stop vlogging. I love all of your videos, all of them! It's just great to be talked through whatever you're up to, wearing, looking at, and getting a peek into your world - books, shows, restaurants, thoughts, etc. You are my number one forever and ever favorite you tuber so I'm just glad you're still going! xoxo from L.A.
Hello, for me I love seeing the travely bits, even airport / packing bts (i miss it so much!). Personally I wouldn’t mind less of a focus on fashion, I don’t mind the passing mention but I’d rather see books and life being lived. Like reading a book, I wouldn’t read a book on fashion. Also have i missed an update on where you are staying, looks more like a flat than a hotel.
Also such a big day dreamer! It’s one of my favourite things about myself, the ability to escape!
Enjoy your slow travels 🌼🌼💛
Lizzy you do your things ! The content you offer is the content you chose to offer and it might be different tomorrow , you might have other inspirations . And that is ok . YOU CAN NOT PLEASE EVERYONE ! So you do you !
Our lives fluctuate also and I think it is unreasonable to ask for you to be perfectly consistent . No one is and that is ok . And I find that it is what makes your vlog feel the realest !
Enjoy New York ! Be free !
I’m always up for more of your narrated or silent observations as you walk around a city! In the case of non_speaking segments, my one ask would be to either A) add the music in at a volume that matches your speaking volume or B) enable automatic captions (which would let folks keep the overall volume lower and catch what you’re saying via subtitles). Whenever I have the volume high enough to catch your spoken audio, the music always bowls me over when it drops 😂
There's an entire genre of videos that I quite enjoy that are all in the vein of "walking alone in ." Not everything is going to be for everyone. I like that you're sharing your chill vibes. Miss Luigi tho
I love all and any vlogs you choose to create and share Lizzy. It’s a cliche, but you do you babe - I’ll be here 💛
"the city that never sleeps likes a lie in" might be my favourite phrase of all time hahahah
Love your travel vlogs. As a New Yorker, I would want you to experience more than the Lower East Side and Soho. The Upper West Side is gorgeous and European-feeling with the architecture. Also, maybe visit thrift stores. There are lots in the city. Glad you are venturing upstate. It's a whole different vibe. Another suggestion is the Chelsea area. Have you walked the Highline? Don't miss the Flatiron/Madison Square Park, walk towards Union Square (amazing greenmarket on Saturdays). And lastly, if you have time, a trip to Storm King---great light hiking and sculpture "garden". Have fun!
i don't mind vlogs displaying the environment and observations. i agree that when it comes to vlogging, you want to share your experiences while respecting your company's privacy. can't wait to see more content 🖤 (p.s. the queue around the block looks like it was for The French Dispatch pop up at Whalebone Magazine)
The last three videos happen to be my favorites ✨
I have loved this travelling content it’s great Lizzie!!
Lizzy I’ve said this before and I will say it again: you look lovely in green💚! Enjoy your NYC stay, and thank you for sharing!
How exciting that you are able to stay in the States for Halloween. I like to see unique little shops and book stores and the architecture of the city. Just watched Kate Young's newest blog about Dior and she said the Christian Dior exhibit is in Brooklyn if you haven't already seen it.
Testing basics of coffee shops? :) The videos where you capture incidentals of the city and small details with just some music are also so enjoyable !
Love love love your vlogs! However it would be good to see more of NY. Where you walk, what your thoughts are of where you’re visiting. Just feels like you talk a lot from your hotel room about what you’re going to do but we see very short clips before we’re back in your room again. Glad you’re having such a good time with friends though and totally get that you don’t want to share that.
I love you, your style, your book content and well …everything really. Which is why i’ve thought about your content and what feedback to offer.
I think it’s about small tweaks. Of course maintain privacy, choices and agency over your content.
You know on TV shows when they give you a recap for people like me who forget the plot line or might have missed an ep? I think you might want to do that a bit more.
I don’t watch all the time but i’m a pretty regular viewer but I don’t know why you are away from London for this period of time (more than a holiday) I also don’t know what’s happened to Luigi or if you miss him? You’ve probably said all this but I think it bears repeating so we feel engaged with your life and in the loop and involved with what’s happening. Otherwise i think there’s a risk of your beautiful stylish content becoming less impactful because we don’t know enough (within reason and totally within your control) of what, why, how, who etc.
I really hope this is respectful and maybe even helpful. Please keep making content xxx
We live in a strange world where a girl can make a good living sharing videos of herself trying on plain jumpers and drinking coffee 😂 But even stranger are the people who slate the content and are rude to somebody they don’t actually know. Switch off! Get a life! Keep sharing whatever content you feel like Lizzy. I personally enjoy the escapism and fashion inspo x
Just do you! Love the music/videos wandering around the city including your narratives as you go! Enjoy your trip & keep up the good work, I feel like I'm in the city with a friend. Can you do a hotel reveal post trip? It looks lovely, somewhere I'd like to stay, too. Expensive fashion is fine for the idea, we can find dupes according to our budgets. Many thanks.
Greenygrey is one of my fav colours! Love the clips where you’re walking around the city and shooting on film. Would also love to see some interior decor of cafes too. Have you considered travelling out of nyc to explore the bits around too? I visited Tarrytown (did a half day trip from nyc) and it was awesome around Halloween. Also, love that black arket tank top!!
Appreciate to see you being open for all the feedbacks . As I have been following you for few years , the recent travel vlogs definitely less of focus of certain concepts , except you mentioning the sponsors, which is fine; I could only remember the brand name and many many coffee walks ….. It is less of a diary, more like you piece a lot of things are not aligned together . Would be great to see you have one or two topics in each video , whatever it is , would be the creative part that we are looking for from a creative blogger.
Would love to see another 'not rewearing anything for 7 days' video or the one where you recreate past outfits from Instagram looks. Also looking forward to interior updates, and maybe you could do a "what I would wear for a rainy day/date night/job interview etc" series
These vlogs do have a bit of a different feel from some of your other travel vlogs, but perhaps thats just an expectations things? Would be really cool if you did a sit down chat section in the next vlog of your experience, travelling alone in North America (if you are travelling alone) and where you've been eating etc? Highlights/lowlights and just some general chat about your experience? And any house updates? Assuming thats why you're staying a bit longer in NYC if things are delayed? Appreciate this might be too personal but would be really interetsing to see some kind of budget/cost for this trip - would love to do something similar one day!
