Recent fall pickups, Back on my routine, Dealing with stress!

[@maxlandsborough4138]

I think the honesty at the end is key and refreshing. Its something we should all remind ourselves of. Were all real people, with real problems. Thats natural and theyre temporary. Glad youre feeling more yourself Dan❤️

[@imdanielsimmons]

Thanks for watching all the way through! 🤎

[@daniahmiller3336]

I found your channel when I was pretty deep in a depressive episode. I struggled with depression from the time I was six years old until I was 29. I'm 32 now - this is the longest stretch I've ever gone in my life without depressive symptoms. Your content helped me to connect with BEAUTY again. The way you tell the story of your life has inspired me to embrace simplicity and find contentment in the everyday things, especially as I continue to heal from years of consistent depression. I'm watching this video now on a solo trip to DC, sitting outside a gorgeous Cafe devouring the best French toast I've ever eaten. Your evolution is evident, and it's also gorgeous to see. I know folks struggle with change, but it makes me happy that you're making these great strides in business and life. Of course there will be change. Thank you for what you create, and take care of yourself. That's what's most important. ❤

[@sunnysideup33]

Wonderful words. Wish you all the best 🌺

[@imdanielsimmons]

Truly taken back from your comment 🤎 I’m so glad to hear things are going well for you now! I’m so happy to hear that my content had a role to play in your happiness and your journey. I truly hope you continue to heal and keep enjoying the simplicities of life 🤎 Only issue is, you have made me crave some really good French toast now! 🤣 Have a great time in DC & thank you so much for the support 🤎

[@matheusoliveira1731]

For me, the style of this channel has always been on point. From the talkative Daniel to very aesthetically pleasant and experimental editing, it have always had the core of what this community is all about. What makes this one, particularly, one of the most important diaries, is your comment about how the content you create is a highlight of the good moments in life, not all of it. Because this may seem obvious, but in the internet, where people compare themselves all the time, it's so easy to feel let down by being exposed to perfectly framed shots of incredible places and unique moments while the viewer's experience may be as amusing. I have already felt that I should skip a weeks' episode because I wasn't in a state of mind where I would relate or enjoy seeing it since my life was a mess haha. But most of the time, I find in your videos the inspiration to keep working hard and fighting for the things I value most in life. So thank you for bringing not only the beauty of life, but also the sincerity that makes it all human and special.

[@imdanielsimmons]

I really appreciate your comment especially as it pretty much sums up my thoughts too. Thank you so much for watching and I really appreciate your support 🤎

[@karimuahmed]

For your boots, you could get a boot jack instead of getting a zipper added, it's pretty common for folks that wear a lot of cowboy boots to have one in the house, helps with getting them unstuck!

[@michaeldoerksen2841]

+1 for boot jack. Don't get a zipper installed... please

[@ayywolf]

Reflecting on the last part of the video: You should always keep in mind that even though we do expect you to post fashion content and love the London Diaries series, when you are full of life just like in this video, when you are truly yourself, that is the most enjoyable. Always do what you feel is the best and not what you 'should' do. I think content creators can easily fall into a rut, so keep the creative part of your personality alive

[@Linzetta]

I love the slow videos with beautiful shots and jazz. It watch it to be relaxed before bed.

[@luiswolf1629]

Loved the alternative ending to the video, because today many people don‘t realize that these videos just show positive insights into the life of a person. This doesn‘t mean it‘s a bad thing, but people tend to think their lives are much worse, because they compare their whole life to little positive bits of others lives. So thanks for another amazing video Dan❤

[@gloriamqu3795]

I am so happy to hear that you want to keep making these videos even if life gets busy outside content creation. If anything, for me these videos become even more real. Still enjoying each of them!

[@stevenhkim]

Your videos are a highlight that I look forward to every week/other week. I hope you don't stop the series.

[@thenegusayo]

The brand progress has been insane to watch. You're really crafting so many dope pieces

[@imdanielsimmons]

Really appreciate the kind words! 🫶🏼

[@dreamershavemorefun]

Don’t put a zipper on the boots; you’ll fundamentally alter the shape of the boots. I suggest getting a boot puller to take off the boots and if that doesn’t work, time to rotate out

[@imdanielsimmons]

Yeah that is my worry tbh - I’ll try the boot puller first!

[@BrunoVMr]

You and your channel inspires me in a lot of ways. I'm very grateful for your content, it helps me to see the good aspects of life in general. Thank you very much! take care!

[@passionateintrovert]

It’s interesting how you brought up the “always going to be eating a pastry and buying flowers in my videos” because that’s exactly what popped in my head. After the birthday video this one was definitely more classic London Diaries. And I think it’s great to be able to film both kinds of videos and not always do what’s expected. We need variety as humans sometimes and I’m sure it feels more motivating to switch it up when it feels right. Keep following your instinct and being true to yourself like you have and genuine content is bound to follow. :)

[@ahmadghanim5886]

the message at the end is crystal clear, what's beautiful is that the art of these videos you share and how the process of making them is relaxing for you extends into how me as the viewer experience them in the craziness of life. I like that your videos in the midst of the madness help us see the beauty of design and the simple things in life, croissants and all. I believe that making things should be informed by your life and as you said things fluctuate, thank you for sharing

[@spicyarmadillo7167]

We appreciate you Daniel - the 10 or so mins every other Sunday provide a short moment of calming escapism, something that's hard to come by these days. So thank you

[@TheNINJA3601]

Brother, a lot of us are with you till the end. We respect that you make time and energy to put your creativity and realness into every video. I’m currently going through a rigorous doctoral program and watching your creative work whether it’s here or on other platforms, is a reminder of passionate work being served at its upmost. Thank you Daniel.

[@kimstrong5028]

Thank you Daniel for another great video! Truly if you want to evolve and show it in your videos don’t be scared to do so! We appreciate your artistic essence and are rooting for you brother 🤍

[@LucyLiu03]

You’re videos are great for slowing down and I look forward to enjoying your video when I’m looking to decompress ❤

[@tahnpark1267]

Been watching for a while and excited for a pop up/in-person of the DS clothing (I’m a texture person to buy clothing!). The video have become more real of you and if they change, they change. There’s creators I don’t follow anymore because we all move forward. I’m grateful to watch you grow, learn, MOVE across the world, fall in love, etc. Stay well, Daniel! You’re off to make your life memorable whether people stay, linger, or depart!❤

[@shaneschick3016]

I love these diaries and don't mind the differences in tone, editing, etc. Thanks for making them.

[@daylonmitchell6033]

I always love the pastry and flowers part of the vlog; it’s so relaxing!🌺🌹🌻🌼

[@oscrmdza]

Been watching these your videos for I don't even know how long anymore but needless to say, you never fail to deliver. The level of transparency that you show when you take the time to talk to your audience is greatly appreciated because it's often easy to forget that everyone, regardless of how they portray themselves online, has their share of struggles. Your channel pushed me to better understand my own style and to also take my fitness up a notch without compromising on the good that life has to offer from time to time. Thanks for keeping consistent for all these years even with all the stuff being added to your plate! Also side note, first time purchase from your brand with the Merino Knit Sweater. From delivery box to the packaging to the tags... Absolutely no reason to be this damn good right off the bat! It is easily one of the best pickups in quite sometime and your brand holds it's own among the best. Hope you keep doing your thing!

[@zacharyarsenault1984]

These videos are such a good Sunday reset!

[@imdanielsimmons]

I’m glad you like them 🤎

[@akym82810]

For winter flowers, try amaryllis. They're very lily looking but chunkier and perfect for Christmas. They also come in white.

[@kevm6402]

Hi Daniel, I think you don’t need to overthink too much. Life is short, just do and film what you feel comfortable with is good enough. I really enjoy watching your videos, so chill and comfortable. 😊

[@mphochonco5971]

🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦I've been watching your content for the past 3 years. It's growing gracefully. I'm learning more and more from you to just be yourself and you will find your niche community♥️

[@Realfoodreallife]

No matter how you portray the content in your videos, I can't deny that your videos give me a supreme level of positivity whenever I feel down and demotivated. When I open KZbin and see your new video in my feed, I instantly feel positive and energised, even if I had the worst day. Thanks for sharing your life moments with us, Daniel. Keep up the great work and best wishes for the future

[@LusineG]

Daniel, I just love your content. It’s so refreshing how genuine you are and how you put out such creative videos. The music, camera angles, small details… I can go on. Thank you! 🧡 and thank you for always sharing your journey with us ☺️ PS… I love to get weekly flowers and never been into lilies until for some reason your last few videos and now I’m on a lily kick. For some reason I feel like it brings a little elegance to my space 😊

[@pkaboo7832]

I would definitely check it out yourself, but I found that when I have a pair of pull on boots that were comfortable, that I had a zipper installed, the fit was no longer any good. This was part of the reason I learned a little trick that I used to break the suction on a boot. While I was wearing them, I would take a 12-in ruler and slide it down the inside between my leg and the boot of course being careful and cautious not to scratch myself nor the boot. I found that it sufficiently broke the suction.

[@imdanielsimmons]

I’ll try this next time I try to take them off :)

[@Musaa.Sk13]

to be honest, loved the slow pace. it has helped me alot. love dan.

[@THE_rated_F3]

I think it is a perfect time to make a long Q and A video 😄

[@darrenaurelius0718]

enjoy every episode whether its short or long, always my favourite netflix show! ☕️

[@DanielArenasCarmona-xj8lm]

Thanks for being honest. Everytime I need to take a breath and get in touch with life and beauty and even the present moment, your videos are there for help me out. More than a fashion guy(a pretty good one), you're a very good person, hope you can deal with your stress and we are here for help you out to if you need it.

[@kayleighluebbert]

Loved the moody cozy vibe of the photoshoot 🖤

[@nackytacky]

Love the video Daniel, and have enjoyed your content for a long time. Love these little raw sections at the end, think people forget that content creators are human, and you all have ups and downs like the rest of us. As for that comment, some people will resonate with the change some won’t, I definitely like where you’ve taken your channel so keep going Daniel!

[@lemueltimbreza]

your videos always help me out of a slump. appreciate your genuineness always brother. congratulations on everything you’ve accomplished and the blessings to come, cheers 🥂

[@casi_yt]

I've been following this channel for quite a while and I'm so glad you managed to get to this point, Daniel. The constant improvement in everything you produce is absolutely stunning to watch

I look forward to your videos… creativity. I like the way you are evolving since the early days. Great to chill with a coffee and have a calm watch 👊🏻

[@DarkShadow2362]

Nothing excites me more than seeing a notification of "Daniel Simmons Uploaded:". Everything about you, your style, the emotions and storytelling you convey through the camera is just magnificent to me, it's very relaxing and authentic. I'm so glad you're feeling more like yourself now, it's good seeing the more talkative side of you. Thanks for always being here, I've been watching you for a really long time and I absolutely admire you.

[@AlejandroCardona-r2y]

I watch these videos to sleep. These are great and I get relaxed. I think you shouldn’t change the way you film. I love it bro, keep it up

[@matteotc]

Your videos are so relaxing thank you for making a bad week better. A friend from Italy ❤

[@sammyali1246]

Hey Daniel, I absolutely love following your channel. The vibes, atmosphere, and subtle inspiration throughout are always spot-on. You're a great creator, and I really appreciate the honesty you shared at the end of this video.

[@imdanielsimmons]

Ahh thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate the support!

[@RelebogileNdlovu-ds7ts]

We appreciate you, Daniel, you're doing well ❤

[@cameronshears]

Love these videos and always nice to see you open up as a creator to the stresses that occur as part of a “normal” life. Would you be willing to do a video on how you started the brand/found suppliers/navigating some of the challenges with starting a clothing brand?

[@faizwee4471]

Abit late of a comment so you probably wont see this, but you've inspired me to appreciate the smaller things in life. I am too in a long distance relationship, and knowing that someone out there is going through the same struggles (similar timezones too), its almost reassuring. Much love man

[@sarank4ur]

I think you have been doing amazing, your style is beautiful and so therapeutic. I am so happy for you and your fiance..

[@johansunny9635]

We appreciate yo Daniel keep doing you!!!

[@uberstevo]

To help with the tight boots, try applying some talcum powder to your socks or the inside of the boots before wearing them. The difficulty comes from a combination of foot swelling (from walking), sweat/moisture, and air pressure, which together can create a vacuum-like seal. Great VLOG as always! 🧡🙏🏻

[@imdanielsimmons]

Thanks!!

[@joshuaorbito]

throw some cornstarch, baby powder, or ball powder before putting the boots on. It can prevent moisture build up, which is probably what's causing your foot to be sucked in there. Beware though the bottom of your socks will be white, but it washes off

[@psipro75]

Amazing video like always, love anything u put out by the way, hope people are flexible enough to enjoy all different styles of the videos

[@jamesdrayton3635]

We really need a link to a London Diaries/New York Diaries playlist, with all the smooth jazz, piano melodies, and other tracks you use in these videos.

[@cruz.c]

i notice if i wear a stretchier, maybe thinner long sock, compared to a thicker fuller sock, its a lot easier to get my feet out of boots.

[@satyamchopraa]

You know that when Daniel sits in that corner of his apartment, he’s discussing something important or Sharing how he feels hehe. Keep growing like this Daniel! You’ll forever be the OG‼️

[@danielirambona]

Great conversation at the end of this video man, have been watching your content since London Diaries began but I think this is my first time commenting! Keep up the amazing work!

[@_nauq]

Love the glimpse into your life and especially the real talk at the end!!

the buzz cut looked so good Daniel !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please consider going back there

[@santiagor1436]

I love the slower pace too ❤

[@liiiissssss]

I don’t comment a lot here, but I wanted to share my 2 cents. First of all, thank you so much for your amazing videos! They are always so calming and chill - like a coffee break. ☕️ I definitely get where the comment you shared in this video is coming from. When I go back and look at the first couple vlogs, they do feel a bit different compared to now. But that’s absolutely normal, because as a videographer you accomplish new skills and since the content is about your life that obviously progresses as well. The way I watch videos (vlogs) is that it is always a type of entertainment and not reflecting that person’s whole reality. It is made to look like a romanticised version of that person’s life. I know sometimes people fall into the believe to know you, but there are so many more aspects before you really know someone and you show us a certain part/a glimpse of your life that you’ve chosen to share, because (I assume) that might be how you would like your life to look like or that‘s the aesthetic you seeking in your life. But in your daily life you also share moments with the people around you that you wouldn’t have shared if you had the choice to decide - moments that are not aesthetic, maybe painful, heartbreaking, emotional or embarrassing etc. I hope this made sense somehow. 😅 Have a great day 🫶🏻

[@imjorgeperez]

Will always love these diaries ❤

[@imdanielsimmons]

I appreciate you!

[@EduardoHenrique-nd1ro]

Amazing vlog, Daniel! thanks for sharing! Cheers from Brazil!

[@ManuelGuillenMusic]

I hope this comment gets to you, use it as a kind of a counterbalance to the one you just read to all of us: I found your channel maybe like 2 years ago and your content keeps being my favorite to date despite consuming a lot of KZbin myself, not saying that the person that commente was wrong at all, as you said, it all comes to preferences, but I even find myself repeating some of your video sections because of how much peace/calmness and inspiration they bring to me, plus, as a Communicologist I get to appreciate every scene, every cut, every little editing detail and you keep surprising me with the content quality within every one of your vlogs, (I don't know how much views did the last of your videos had, but it was a personal favorite, the birthday one I mean). Much love from across the pond (México), keep up the hard work, your channel is at where it is because of how long and hard you've worked for it.

[@cmf1299]

that blue scarf looks GORGEOUS

[@liamcox9043]

Your boot problem reminds me of trying to get on tight ski boots in the winter when I was younger. We always put plastic grocery bags over our socks to get them to slide into the boots

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Your autumn/winter ensembles are truly awesome! 4:39 Find someone who reacts to you like Daniel does to that cashmere sweater.

[@imdanielsimmons]

😅🤣🤣

[@JamesJacobs-h5c]

Another great video - It was just missing the usual croissant. I just bought the essential fleeceback hoodie from the DS website and I'm super satisfied. It was expensive but definitely worth it. Now I have a new go to hoodie and I love how high quality it is but also the simplicity and details. It fits me really well and I really appreciate a functional hood. And also I am going to get the wool pullover too for the holidays. It looks really comfortable.

[@MissSweetness969]

I have had 2 pairs of Frye boots to which I added the zippers, and they looked fine and went on/off easily...definitely worth the 50.00 per pair.

[@katmoshobane5738]

You’re so real for that sit down chit chat ❤️

Don't know if you'll see this comment but I've genuinely been loving your content as of late. I don't watch any other channels like yours but I absolutely love your content.

[@Javasius]

I think it’s just KZbin generally, I feel like since they added that feature I do that with 90% of videos because it’s faster

[@nutri-gains6535]

Those Dries Van Noten jeans are so nice. I was also in Antwerp Belgium and bought great 2nd hand clothes. Some of those shops are hidden in the most random streets

[@imdanielsimmons]

Such a great place!

[@nickgrummel8041]

Hwat I would be really happy to see, the proscess of you trying to style for example a scarf in a more outward way (ASAP Rocky comes to mind) Because we all know the struggle of wanting to style something that we imagined looks good on us and then switching 3-4 outfits in 5 minutes. I would really love how you manage the struggle of that process

[@sesse70]

Great video....such a nice talk ...Keep it up.....always a highlight of my week....; )

[@n85652]

You can buy what's called a "boot jack". Makes taking your boots off super easy.

[@imdanielsimmons]

Ordered!! 🫡🫡

[@trisnaekowiyatnikawaii3860]

A coffee + a croissant and a bucket of flowers. I'd say you're more classic French guy than British one. Daniel Simmons ! Lol 😉 My French husband always does this thing every weekend and we are happily married 😇
