Ep 27: "Stepping Out With Cinderella"

Ep 27: "Stepping Out With Cinderella"

This week on Wisdom From The Wardrobe, the style team talks all things spring summer shoes trends for 2021. While there may be no glass slippers involved, they certainly do not tip toe around what they like and do not like for the season ahead. Flatform sandals, ballet Flats, and clogs may not be the stuff fairy tales are made of, but it seems function is the name of the story in footwear this season.

Happy Listening.

Ep 26: "Darlin Buds Of May"

Ep 26: "Darlin Buds Of May"

April is for showers, May is all about flowers, or is it? This week the style team digs into what is on offer for the style trends this season. Spring & summer 2021 looks to bloom with radical florals, muted colors, bold shoulders, and cinched waists, to name a few. We also discuss what shows up on the runway is the theory of what the masses will be swathing themselves in, but let’s talk about the reality of what grows from the runway ideas and makes its way into the stores.

Happy Listening.

Ep 12: Mutton Dressed as Lamb

We work with a lot of clients over the age of 10, therefore, most want insights and ideas of how to have style that’s age appropriate versus dated. In this episode we talk about how age is a mindset, not a twinset – meaning, as you age, it’s even more important to embrace who you are and defy gravity while you’re at it!

To cap it off the team takes on candid questions related to style from the audience, and of course we give great answers.

Ep10: I’m gonna pop some tags (AKA Thrifting)

When you love “popping tags” the same rules apply as when you shop full price. So when clients ask us about shopping discount or in thrift shops, we have thoughts which we happily share in this episode. We also chat with Jennifer Fisher, Executive Director of Bellevue Life Spring, one of our favorite charities to shop and support.

Ep09: Men & Style, an Oxymoron? Not If They’d Stop to Ask for Directions!

We talk about men and style; how they aren’t nurtured to identify and own their style in the same way women are, whether via parenting, play, peers and social media. We encourage men to find and refine their style in a way that fits their body and represents whatever age and stage they’re in now so they can stay relevant, yet real.
