Good Style is Ageless, with Larissa Mills
Larissa Mills' personal style is some of my favorite in the game. I distinctly remember when I first saw her - her daughter Ella posted a getting ready video to TikTok when she decided to flip the camera around to her mom and show off her outfit. I remember gasping at how stylish, effortless, and incredibly cool she was and being like "WHO IS THAT???!!!?" Fast forward two years and a happy accident later, Larissa is a bonafide style star who's OOTD videos have gone viral and garnered her a community of fashion-lovers alike. In today's episode, I chat with Larissa about fashion at every age, demystifying the idea of "that's too young for you," and her favorite staples in her closet for effortless dressing. Love the show?

Style Lessons I Learned In My 20s That Have Me Thriving In My 30s
Like probably most of you, my 20s was a wild roller coaster of unhinged fashion choices. I kicked off my 20s Gossip Girl style - wearing peplum skirts and heels to my classes at NYU (in 40 degree weather, mind you). I entered my mid-20s as a sneakerhead with a collection that should have probably landed me somewhere on Complex, and then also survived pandemic fashion. Now at 30, my focus is laser sharp on investing in pieces that will last a lifetime and I feel more like myself than ever. In today's episode, I talk through the most impactful style learnings from my last decade that are helping me thrive in this new one. Love the show? Follow us and leave a review!

How To Have A Career In Fashion in LA, with Who What Wear Editor in Chief Kat Collings Wolf
When I moved back to Los Angeles from New York City in 2020 in the midst of the pandemic, I had no idea that I'd be finding my way into a different kind of fashion industry. What once was a fashion community that people called non-existent, or "second rate" has actually become a flourishing city of up-and-coming designers, creatives, and thought leaders. And with designers from CHANEL to Saint Laurent choosing LA as the backdrop for their celebrity events and shows, it begs the question: could LA be the next real fashion hub? Today I chat with a California native and Who What Wear Editor in Chief Kat Collings Wolf on what it's really like to build a fashion career in Los Angeles from the ground up.

A Meditation for Stillness
During the 2020 election, I recorded an episode with Marissi Ingrasci, a teacher and coach from the Hoffman Process. The episode featured a practice called a Quadrinity Check, also known as a Quad Check, that holds space for us to check in with the five aspects of our being - Body, Emotional Self, Intellect, Spiritual Self, and Spirit Guide. With so much going on at the time, I wanted the episode to feel like a moment of respite and a helpful tool that my community could go back to at any time of grief or anxiety. In the past two weeks, it's been something I've come back to often while watching the devastating events unfold in the Middle East. I hope that this episode gives you a sense of calm amid the chaos, and serves as a reminder to take care of ourselves so we can best take care of our communities. The Hoffman Quadrinity Process®, founded by Bob Hoffman in 1967, is a week-long residential and personal growth retreat that helps participants identify negative behaviors, moods, and ways of thinking that developed unconsciously and were conditioned in childhood.

How To Cultivate Your Personal Style By Shopping Vintage
Rachel Tabb has had good style since middle school, which is something I definitely can't say for myself. She's always looked like a supermodel straight out of the 90s with a perfectly polished and minimalist wardrobe that would give Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy a run for her money. Today, that style is the capstone of her vintage business, Shop RLT, a store in Los Angeles filled with her curation of vintage finds from eBay, to the Rosebowl, and beyond. From denim to tees, vintage YSL and more, RLT has quickly become my favorite vintage store in LA for its edit of everyday clothing that I can have for a lifetime. In today's episode, Rachel shares how to build a successful business on Instagram, how she learned to trust her style and taste, and her thoughts on the ever-changing retail landscape. Love the show?
