Show Notes
Summer dressing should be the easiest season, fewer layers, less to think about, but somehow it's the one that trips us up the most. I get more questions about summer style than any other time of year so consider this your Summer style toolkit.
I'm answering the questions you've been sending in nonstop: the perfect sandal, how to elevate jean shorts, what to wear when it's a million degrees outside but freezing in your office, and the colors and shoes defining this summer.

Fresh off the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles, I'm sitting on my closet floor (still in full glam!) to unpack everything that went down. From Kylie Jenner's $50 million Fantasy Bra and the return of the OG Angels to the incredible performances, surprise celebrity sightings, and the moments that made me emotional, we're getting into it all.
Is your wardrobe a want, a need, or an investment? Haley Sacks, aka Mrs. Dow Jones, makes the case that the clothes are never the investment. The investment is you in the clothes.
If you've ever wanted to channel your inner maximalist but didn't know where to start, this episode is for you.
I'm back with another September AMA episode, and this one is packed. We get into how to actually land a Fashion Week invite as a creative, what to wear to your first job in corporate fashion, and at-home hand-wash strategy I've been using to avoid the dry cleaner. We also get into how to keep your clothes shed-free if you live with a dog, the best coats and jackets to buy for fall (starting with the perfect ME+EM black jacket everyone needs), the designer canvas tote that isn't Dior, and what to wear on a date night.
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 either of us follows anymore, and her theory on which trends are actually worth buying into versus styling with what's already in your closet. We also get into her favorite shows of the week, the jeans and tees she and Liv actually reach for on repeat, and what she'd wear to a 30th birthday dinner if she wanted to feel elevated without trying too hard.
