How to Master Polished Maximalism: Mixing Prints, Color & Finding Your Style with Julia Berolzheimer

If you've ever wanted to channel your inner maximalist but didn't know where to start, this episode is for you. Style creator Julia Berolzheimer joins us to break down polished maximalism, her signature mix of color on color and print on print, and how to wear it so it feels refined, not over the top. We get into her formula for mixing prints: start with one statement piece, pay attention to texture, and find a single thread of a shared shade to tie it all together (plus why a stripe pairs with almost any print). We talk about why she invests in statements and saves on staples, how to test a…

What People are Wearing in NYC Right Now

Linoy Friedman, AKA What People Are Wearing breaks down the trends she spotted at New York Fashion Week. We get into the pop of red moment taking over street style (and how to actually find your shade), the sweater-tied-around-the-waist trick that's secretly a styling hack and not a trend at all, the return of statement necklaces and brooches as finishing touches, and the 3D texture -- fringe, feathers, pom-poms -- showing up on everything this season. We talk about why over-logoing an outfit is the fastest way to lose it, why "wear the trend, don't let the trend wear you" is the only rule…

If you've ever been told there's no clear path for the career you want, this episode is proof you can build the path yourself. Kyle Smith joins us as the NFL's first-ever fashion editor, a role that didn't exist until he created it. We get into how a scrappy Instagram account he ran during COVID, just posting tunnel fits for fun, became his literal proof of concept and landed him back at the league in a job title no one had held before. We talk about taking Joe Burrow to Paris for his first-ever trip outside the country and putting him in a backless Peter Do suit for Vogue World, a moment…

Why Getting Dressed Feels So Hard and How to Get Your Mornings Back

If you have ever stood in a closet full of clothes and thought "I have nothing to wear," this episode is for you. It's our last solo episode before we head off for summer break, and I'm unpacking what I'm calling my biggest style growth spurt in years. It didn't come from one purchase or one outfit, it came from a full mental shift in how I think about getting dressed every day, treating my personal style with the same care I give my physical and mental wellness. I get into the wardrobe reset that came out of it, the "wardrobe rage" phenomenon Maggie Sellers coined on her podcast Hot Smart…

How to Break Into Fashion, with Industry Commentator Jack Savoie

If you think you have to move to New York or LA to make it in fashion, this episode says otherwise. Jack Savoie joins us from Denver to talk about building a fashion career — and a viral following — without uprooting your life.

What Was the Best Retail Experience You’ve Ever Had?

Okay, I have to say it: retail is broken, and I don't think I'm the only one who feels that way. I've had such a big bone to pick with retail lately, and every time I bring it up — here on the podcast, on my socials — you guys have so much to say too. So today I'm finally getting into it: the post-COVID luxury gatekeeping that's got us all waiting in line for something that's supposed to feel special, the final sale chaos that's basically taken over everything, and the whole Brandy Melville dressing room saga that broke the internet a few weeks ago. After I posted a rant about all of this on…

If your everyday outfits feel like an afterthought, this episode is going to change that. Gabs Gofis (aka Gift of Gabs on Substack) joins us to talk about the category most of us ignore: the in-between outfit.

Content creator and marathon runner Brett Chody joins us for what we're calling the sporty girl's guide to getting dressed — a practical conversation about building a wardrobe around an active life without sacrificing style.

Are Handbags Actually a Good Investment?

What Makes a Great Sneaker? With APL founders Adam and Ryan Goldston

Sneakers used to be one of two things: performance or fashion. Somewhere in the last decade, that line collapsed — and the shoes most of us are reaching for now sit firmly in the middle. I'm joined by Adam and Ryan Goldston, founders of APL and the first members of an athletic company ever inducted into the CFDA, for a conversation on how they ushered in the era of the fashion sneaker. From getting banned by the NBA for their first shoe to landing in Selfridges, Net-a-Porter, and Saks before anyone else was selling performance product in those rooms, Adam and Ryan share how a clear point of…

How to Find the Perfect Pair of Jeans for Your Body Type (From a Vintage Denim Expert)

Denim should be the easiest thing in our closet — we wear it almost every single day — but somehow it's the category that humbles us the most. We've all had that experience of walking into a department store, trying on ten pairs of jeans, and leaving with none. I'm joined by Lindsay Davidson Paley, founder of Lenny, the LA vintage denim store that has become a destination for anyone looking for their perfect pair. After spending an afternoon in her store and walking out with jeans I actually love, I wanted to sit down with her to demystify everything about denim — from why fit feels…

Answering Your Biggest Spring Style Questions - Listener Q&A

Some of the most-asked questions I get are about the stuff we wear every single day, the work pants, the basics, the summer sandals, the first-date outfit. And honestly, these are the hardest things to get right, because they're the pieces that have to actually work in your real life.

Spring is officially here, which means it’s time for a wardrobe reset. I’m breaking down the 10 pieces you actually need for spring whether you’re shopping your closet or investing in a few key pieces. I’ve always found spring to be the hardest season to get dressed for. It’s that in-between moment where your winter pieces feel too heavy, but it’s not quite summer either, so figuring out what actually works can be hard. From the perfect work pant to the return of the barn jacket, pencil skirts, and cropped denim, these are the staples, trends, and styling shifts that will make getting…
