You get this instant 66 00:02:53,754 --> 00:02:57,674 Speaker 3: good will from wearing these loved Australian brand It makes. 67 00:02:57,514 --> 00:03:00,754 Speaker 4: Us feel patriotic seeing her do that, right, So it's 68 00:03:00,794 --> 00:03:03,434 Speaker 4: an exercising good pr for her very much. 69 00:03:03,474 --> 00:03:03,754 Speaker 2: So. 70 00:03:03,754 --> 00:03:06,274 Speaker 3: So, yeah, she's wearing these brands almost as a way 71 00:03:06,274 --> 00:03:09,914 Speaker 3: of a nonverbal c to say I see you, I 72 00:03:09,994 --> 00:03:11,794 Speaker 3: respect you, I respect you enough to be. 73 00:03:11,754 --> 00:03:12,714 Speaker 2: Wearing your brands. 74 00:03:13,074 --> 00:03:16,394 Speaker 3: But there's also a story or a narrative that she 75 00:03:16,474 --> 00:03:19,274 Speaker 3: can control based on what she's wearing. So she would 76 00:03:19,274 --> 00:03:21,154 Speaker 3: have come into this with her team, her PR team 77 00:03:21,194 --> 00:03:24,434 Speaker 3: going what do we actually want to say through what 78 00:03:24,474 --> 00:03:28,034 Speaker 3: she's wearing. So she loves the whole high low thing, 79 00:03:28,074 --> 00:03:28,474 Speaker 3: doesn't she? 80 00:03:28,594 --> 00:03:29,154 Speaker 2: On that show? 81 00:03:29,194 --> 00:03:33,394 Speaker 3: It was the Tzara pants and the Laura Piano top 82 00:03:33,514 --> 00:03:33,874 Speaker 3: or something. 83 00:03:33,954 --> 00:03:36,434 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's true, like a cashmere Yeah, like a very 84 00:03:36,434 --> 00:03:39,194 Speaker 4: expensive top back with like an accessible high street pant. 85 00:03:39,874 --> 00:03:41,874 Speaker 3: So she likes showing that she's one of the people. 86 00:03:41,914 --> 00:03:43,954 Speaker 3: I think that would have been the brief. Looking at 87 00:03:44,154 --> 00:03:47,474 Speaker 3: the brands that she has worn, like Dish, Bear, Park, Camilla, 88 00:03:47,514 --> 00:03:50,594 Speaker 3: and Mark, there could be some Deefer stories here. So 89 00:03:50,674 --> 00:03:52,834 Speaker 3: for example, if she's like I want to really focus 90 00:03:52,874 --> 00:03:57,314 Speaker 3: on sustainability, she could have worn pre loved or vintage. 91 00:03:57,354 --> 00:03:59,114 Speaker 3: That could have been a really nice take. If I 92 00:03:59,194 --> 00:04:00,994 Speaker 3: was on her PR team, I would have had her 93 00:04:01,074 --> 00:04:03,874 Speaker 3: dressed in what she was wearing five years ago whenever 94 00:04:03,914 --> 00:04:05,914 Speaker 3: she was here, those really nice denim jeans and the 95 00:04:05,954 --> 00:04:09,394 Speaker 3: white oversized shirt. I don't mind rewearing my saying, so 96 00:04:09,434 --> 00:04:11,594 Speaker 3: if it's the same genes, different top, maybe I don't mind. 97 00:04:11,634 --> 00:04:13,354 Speaker 3: These are my jeans that I love and wear to death. 98 00:04:13,514 --> 00:04:15,914 Speaker 3: That could have been a really smart move. Yeah. Also, 99 00:04:16,074 --> 00:04:18,354 Speaker 3: just lastly, from pr point of view, you get two 100 00:04:18,433 --> 00:04:21,714 Speaker 3: stories out of the one activity. So a headline around 101 00:04:21,914 --> 00:04:24,234 Speaker 3: Meghan going to Tronto Zoo, I don't know where she's gone, 102 00:04:24,393 --> 00:04:26,793 Speaker 3: but then another headline around what she was wearing. 103 00:04:26,914 --> 00:04:27,633 Speaker 2: So there's a. 104 00:04:28,234 --> 00:04:29,074 Speaker 1: Two bites to the terry. 105 00:04:29,113 --> 00:04:31,033 Speaker 4: I actually have a little bit of insight here and 106 00:04:31,073 --> 00:04:34,113 Speaker 4: you're spot on. But one of the placements came about 107 00:04:34,113 --> 00:04:38,793 Speaker 4: for a literal Instagram DM, So Meghan probably Meghan's team 108 00:04:38,953 --> 00:04:41,873 Speaker 4: slid into the DMS of Friends with Frank, which is 109 00:04:41,914 --> 00:04:42,833 Speaker 4: a Melbourne brand. 110 00:04:42,834 --> 00:04:44,993 Speaker 1: It's a real if you know, you know kind of brand. 111 00:04:44,993 --> 00:04:50,074 Speaker 4: They do amazing wardrobe staples and apparently so Julia McCarthy 112 00:04:50,154 --> 00:04:52,633 Speaker 4: is the designer, and she told the SMH that she 113 00:04:52,753 --> 00:04:56,073 Speaker 4: received a DM from the team requesting a number of 114 00:04:56,073 --> 00:04:58,594 Speaker 4: pieces to be sent to Meghan in the US and 115 00:04:58,633 --> 00:05:00,954 Speaker 4: she was told it's confirmed that she's going to be 116 00:05:00,993 --> 00:05:03,514 Speaker 4: wearing something, but the where and the what of that 117 00:05:03,674 --> 00:05:06,193 Speaker 4: was unclear, and so she was, you know, obviously very 118 00:05:06,193 --> 00:05:09,553 Speaker 4: pleasantly surprised. Meghan wore not one, but two pieces from 119 00:05:09,633 --> 00:05:12,073 Speaker 4: her brand, which was a trench coat with a more 120 00:05:12,073 --> 00:05:15,753 Speaker 4: casual outfit and this little olive green shift dress. 121 00:05:15,914 --> 00:05:16,594 Speaker 2: How was that? 122 00:05:16,834 --> 00:05:19,153 Speaker 3: I know Megan obviously loves fashion, so I think she 123 00:05:19,193 --> 00:05:22,914 Speaker 3: would have definitely had some play in this and considered 124 00:05:22,953 --> 00:05:24,753 Speaker 3: some of her outfits and pulling them together. But she 125 00:05:24,753 --> 00:05:27,234 Speaker 3: would have also had a stylist obviously reaching out with 126 00:05:27,274 --> 00:05:29,274 Speaker 3: the commons and whatnot. Yeah, but you could see her 127 00:05:29,393 --> 00:05:31,393 Speaker 3: enjoying pulling these looks together, couldn't you. 128 00:05:31,513 --> 00:05:33,313 Speaker 1: I loved it. I've loved watching it. 129 00:05:33,553 --> 00:05:33,794 Speaker 3: Yeah. 130 00:05:33,873 --> 00:05:35,833 Speaker 1: I hope she comes back soon. Yeah, seen. 131 00:05:35,914 --> 00:05:36,274 Speaker 2: Sis. 132 00:05:36,674 --> 00:05:40,513 Speaker 4: Let's talk about Stella McCartney announcing a collection for H 133 00:05:40,553 --> 00:05:43,753 Speaker 4: and M. This is big news because it's twenty one 134 00:05:43,834 --> 00:05:48,273 Speaker 4: years since the British designer debuted her first collection with 135 00:05:48,393 --> 00:05:51,513 Speaker 4: the high Street brand and this is a quote unquote 136 00:05:51,594 --> 00:05:58,193 Speaker 4: sustainable collection. Yeah, so interesting choice here, something that Stella 137 00:05:58,393 --> 00:06:01,794 Speaker 4: herself has admitted to Vogue was a risk, and I 138 00:06:01,834 --> 00:06:04,273 Speaker 4: think we all can kind of read the subtext there. 139 00:06:04,393 --> 00:06:07,474 Speaker 4: It's a risk because Stella is a real out liar 140 00:06:07,594 --> 00:06:10,354 Speaker 4: in the fashion industry and has been since launching her 141 00:06:10,433 --> 00:06:15,193 Speaker 4: label for using ethical manufacturing practices, only the best sustainable 142 00:06:15,234 --> 00:06:18,954 Speaker 4: materials and practices in her in her pieces and her 143 00:06:18,993 --> 00:06:23,553 Speaker 4: in her collections, and being staunchly anti fur, anti leather, etc. 144 00:06:24,313 --> 00:06:27,954 Speaker 4: So partnering with a high street giant like H and M, 145 00:06:28,753 --> 00:06:32,513 Speaker 4: you know, it's an interesting move in this market for sure. 146 00:06:32,594 --> 00:06:35,033 Speaker 4: To my eye, like the optics of this are a 147 00:06:35,154 --> 00:06:38,594 Speaker 4: little bit I think, I think they're worth exploring because 148 00:06:38,753 --> 00:06:42,993 Speaker 4: twenty years ago, the first time around, I remember reporting 149 00:06:42,993 --> 00:06:45,153 Speaker 4: on this or at least seeing this, like when I 150 00:06:45,193 --> 00:06:47,474 Speaker 4: was first interning in magazines, and it was a really 151 00:06:47,513 --> 00:06:51,593 Speaker 4: big deal because back then fast fashion didn't have the 152 00:06:51,714 --> 00:06:54,474 Speaker 4: stigma attached to it as much as it does now. 153 00:06:54,513 --> 00:06:57,553 Speaker 1: It was from my memory, it was quite a coupe. 154 00:06:58,034 --> 00:07:01,353 Speaker 4: To score a high street collaboration, so you had big 155 00:07:01,393 --> 00:07:03,714 Speaker 4: brands doing that, and Stella was one of the first, 156 00:07:03,794 --> 00:07:05,993 Speaker 4: and it was a really celebrated moment. 157 00:07:06,073 --> 00:07:08,993 Speaker 1: Whereas this time it feels a little bit murkier. 158 00:07:09,554 --> 00:07:13,033 Speaker 3: It's funny even ten the last few episodes we've done together, 159 00:07:13,074 --> 00:07:17,274 Speaker 3: we've spoken about these collaborations, haven't we. JW Anderson, Uniclo, 160 00:07:18,314 --> 00:07:21,674 Speaker 3: John Galiano, Zara Zara, and he referenced that he's going 161 00:07:21,714 --> 00:07:24,114 Speaker 3: to be pulling from the archives and if that might 162 00:07:24,194 --> 00:07:27,554 Speaker 3: be a sustainable sort of collection that he's doing. I 163 00:07:27,594 --> 00:07:30,634 Speaker 3: feel like you can't just put a name on a 164 00:07:30,754 --> 00:07:32,994 Speaker 3: high street brand anymore. There needs to be that depth 165 00:07:33,034 --> 00:07:34,874 Speaker 3: to it, which is why it quite works quite well 166 00:07:34,874 --> 00:07:37,754 Speaker 3: with Stella McCartney. How she wants to do the sustainable angle. 167 00:07:38,034 --> 00:07:39,834 Speaker 3: What that means though, I think I saw in one 168 00:07:39,834 --> 00:07:42,154 Speaker 3: of the press releases that she'll be using seventy five 169 00:07:42,194 --> 00:07:46,314 Speaker 3: percent recycle beating or glass beating on some of the tops. 170 00:07:46,074 --> 00:07:50,713 Speaker 3: It's still like, is it an element of greenwashing still 171 00:07:50,714 --> 00:07:51,474 Speaker 3: at play here? 172 00:07:51,714 --> 00:07:52,953 Speaker 1: This is the question mark? 173 00:07:52,994 --> 00:07:54,874 Speaker 4: And I was thinking about that, and she did kind 174 00:07:54,874 --> 00:07:57,354 Speaker 4: of address this on the front foot in her piece 175 00:07:57,393 --> 00:08:00,033 Speaker 4: with Vogue, unpacking the decision to do the collection and 176 00:08:00,074 --> 00:08:02,473 Speaker 4: a bit of the thinking behind it, and she said, 177 00:08:02,674 --> 00:08:04,954 Speaker 4: I thought this was really brave to admit. She said 178 00:08:04,994 --> 00:08:07,754 Speaker 4: she would rather be in the room with the people 179 00:08:07,834 --> 00:08:10,874 Speaker 4: making these decisions than out of it. She'd rather influence 180 00:08:11,074 --> 00:08:14,473 Speaker 4: or infiltrate from within. So by being part of the 181 00:08:14,514 --> 00:08:16,954 Speaker 4: conversation with H and M and the overlords that make 182 00:08:16,994 --> 00:08:19,914 Speaker 4: those sourcing decisions for the collections in future, she can 183 00:08:19,994 --> 00:08:22,954 Speaker 4: help influence who they might partner with in future, and 184 00:08:22,953 --> 00:08:24,634 Speaker 4: they're making more ethical decisions. 185 00:08:24,874 --> 00:08:26,754 Speaker 1: That might be a bit of a clever. 186 00:08:26,514 --> 00:08:30,473 Speaker 4: Party line, because it still feels a little bit like 187 00:08:30,514 --> 00:08:32,834 Speaker 4: the messaging that they needed to make this give this 188 00:08:32,914 --> 00:08:36,513 Speaker 4: a positive spin. I do love at least these designers 189 00:08:36,594 --> 00:08:39,074 Speaker 4: are trying to put a foot in the right direction 190 00:08:39,154 --> 00:08:43,514 Speaker 4: with sustainability. What I would love to see is like 191 00:08:43,794 --> 00:08:47,434 Speaker 4: sort of what Zara was implying with John Galiano, pulling 192 00:08:47,514 --> 00:08:50,114 Speaker 4: from the dead stock or the archives of H and 193 00:08:50,234 --> 00:08:54,314 Speaker 4: M and creating with product that's already there the dead stock, 194 00:08:54,634 --> 00:08:58,554 Speaker 4: instead of constantly creating this newness and more product into 195 00:08:58,594 --> 00:09:01,314 Speaker 4: the world, pull from what we've already got. You imagine 196 00:09:01,314 --> 00:09:04,074 Speaker 4: that if it had all been reclaimed from the stuff 197 00:09:04,074 --> 00:09:05,834 Speaker 4: that was going to landfill, No, that would have. 198 00:09:05,834 --> 00:09:08,594 Speaker 3: Been There's an opportunity for any of these big brands 199 00:09:08,634 --> 00:09:10,794 Speaker 3: to partner with someone and do that. Yeah, is it 200 00:09:10,874 --> 00:09:13,314 Speaker 3: this potential John Galliano collaboration. 201 00:09:13,434 --> 00:09:14,874 Speaker 2: We don't know. That's a little bit gray. 202 00:09:14,914 --> 00:09:17,474 Speaker 3: We've only just got the press release, but there's something there, 203 00:09:17,834 --> 00:09:19,994 Speaker 3: and all of these are sort of just missing the mark. 204 00:09:20,034 --> 00:09:20,674 Speaker 2: But they're trying. 205 00:09:21,034 --> 00:09:23,714 Speaker 4: Let's get quickly into what you can actually expect from 206 00:09:23,714 --> 00:09:26,474 Speaker 4: the collection, because I do expect it to sell. I mean, 207 00:09:26,754 --> 00:09:29,754 Speaker 4: she's not being shy Stella about putting her brand name 208 00:09:29,874 --> 00:09:31,554 Speaker 4: on these pieces. You know, it's a bit like the 209 00:09:31,674 --> 00:09:35,834 Speaker 4: JW Anderson Uniclo collection where he's got the logo on 210 00:09:35,914 --> 00:09:38,114 Speaker 4: the sleeves of that and you know it's about facing. 211 00:09:38,234 --> 00:09:41,914 Speaker 4: So she's got dresses and tops with her Fallabella chain, 212 00:09:41,994 --> 00:09:44,994 Speaker 4: So that's the signature chain that's incorporated into all of 213 00:09:45,034 --> 00:09:49,274 Speaker 4: Stella's collections and accessories. There's party where there's denim, there's 214 00:09:49,314 --> 00:09:53,194 Speaker 4: these mess dresses, and there's tops in an archival cherry print, 215 00:09:53,274 --> 00:09:56,034 Speaker 4: which is so bringing back, you know, an icon from 216 00:09:56,074 --> 00:09:58,754 Speaker 4: her own collection. And then there's a really great tea 217 00:09:58,754 --> 00:10:00,474 Speaker 4: that I think is a bit of a collectible item. 218 00:10:00,674 --> 00:10:03,954 Speaker 4: It's embellished with studs and it reads Rock Royalty, which 219 00:10:03,994 --> 00:10:06,634 Speaker 4: is a nod to of course Stella McCartney's father being 220 00:10:06,674 --> 00:10:07,114 Speaker 4: Paul mca. 221 00:10:07,674 --> 00:10:10,114 Speaker 2: I love and it's very cool. There's a buy in there. 222 00:10:10,194 --> 00:10:11,434 Speaker 2: I want some of this collection. 223 00:10:11,634 --> 00:10:11,994 Speaker 1: Yeah. 224 00:10:12,074 --> 00:10:13,474 Speaker 2: It is definitely a way to get. 225 00:10:13,354 --> 00:10:16,234 Speaker 3: People buying in twenty twenty six, isn't it, these big 226 00:10:16,274 --> 00:10:17,474 Speaker 3: brand collaborations. 227 00:10:17,554 --> 00:10:21,234 Speaker 4: Yeah, so we'll be shopping that as of May seven. 228 00:10:21,394 --> 00:10:23,754 Speaker 4: So if you get something, hop on our socials and 229 00:10:23,794 --> 00:10:24,674 Speaker 4: then us know what we got. 230 00:10:24,874 --> 00:10:27,754 Speaker 3: Nice And I just want to quickly mention Coachella. Obviously 231 00:10:27,754 --> 00:10:30,034 Speaker 3: we can't not mention Coachella. Ye, what did you think 232 00:10:30,034 --> 00:10:31,154 Speaker 3: of some of the looks that you saw? 233 00:10:31,594 --> 00:10:34,514 Speaker 1: To me this year? It just fell a little bit flat. 234 00:10:34,834 --> 00:10:37,154 Speaker 4: I'm going to be honest, Like I hang out for 235 00:10:37,274 --> 00:10:41,874 Speaker 4: Coachella and sometimes burning mad, Like I'm like a bit 236 00:10:41,874 --> 00:10:44,354 Speaker 4: of a bogey muse gals, You're fine. 237 00:10:44,554 --> 00:10:45,114 Speaker 2: Feels like it. 238 00:10:45,114 --> 00:10:48,314 Speaker 4: Should really be in my wheelhouse festival style, but I'm 239 00:10:48,434 --> 00:10:51,274 Speaker 4: just finding it. I don't know, Like I got a 240 00:10:51,274 --> 00:10:53,474 Speaker 4: little bit of an ick from seeing all of the like, 241 00:10:53,554 --> 00:10:55,314 Speaker 4: quote unquote festival's style. 242 00:10:55,594 --> 00:10:56,874 Speaker 1: Can I tell you what I mean here? 243 00:10:57,114 --> 00:10:59,554 Speaker 2: Yeah?

Okay, so there's kind of a cliche of 249 00:11:14,514 --> 00:11:18,034 Speaker 4: what the you know, Coachella girl looks like now and 250 00:11:18,074 --> 00:11:21,274 Speaker 4: it's like fringed boots and like, you know, a little 251 00:11:21,274 --> 00:11:25,953 Speaker 4: body suit and like the I don't know Diamonte. 252 00:11:25,714 --> 00:11:30,154 Speaker 3: Or the Influencer Olympics.

I mean that they both did brand activations. 260 00:11:46,434 --> 00:11:49,034 Speaker 4: We should say Hailey did one for road, Kendall did 261 00:11:49,034 --> 00:11:51,474 Speaker 4: one for her eight one eight tequila brand. But they're 262 00:11:51,554 --> 00:11:54,954 Speaker 4: much more paired back and dare I say even like muted, 263 00:11:55,354 --> 00:12:00,594 Speaker 4: like in their style.

So the new style, 372 00:16:30,914 --> 00:16:33,954 Speaker 4: the update that I'm seeing to that is quite similar, 373 00:16:33,954 --> 00:16:36,914 Speaker 4: but it's like a rugby top essentially, So it's got 374 00:16:36,914 --> 00:16:40,634 Speaker 4: the collar which kind of leans into the slouchiness of 375 00:16:40,674 --> 00:16:42,514 Speaker 4: a you know, if you think about a rugby jersey, 376 00:16:42,594 --> 00:16:45,634 Speaker 4: it's meant to be slouchy, thrown on casual, but it's 377 00:16:45,634 --> 00:16:48,354 Speaker 4: got that collar which gives it like a bit of preppiness. Yes, 378 00:16:48,674 --> 00:16:51,434 Speaker 4: this is very mew mew coded. If you think about 379 00:16:51,474 --> 00:16:54,114 Speaker 4: the new mutrickle down effect. They've been doing these kind 380 00:16:54,154 --> 00:16:56,514 Speaker 4: of polo necktops with the stripe for a while and 381 00:16:56,554 --> 00:16:58,634 Speaker 4: this was sort of seated three years ago and it's 382 00:16:58,634 --> 00:17:01,394 Speaker 4: still infiltrating through the market. So we're going to be 383 00:17:01,394 --> 00:17:05,394 Speaker 4: seeing colorful, striped and plane variations hitting the shops at 384 00:17:05,434 --> 00:17:07,513 Speaker 4: all different price points. So you can get one cheap, 385 00:17:07,513 --> 00:17:09,153 Speaker 4: you can spend a little bit more on a more 386 00:17:09,154 --> 00:17:14,314 Speaker 4: boogie one from brands including Verge Girl, Uniclo aka Lioness, 387 00:17:14,434 --> 00:17:17,754 Speaker 4: Country Road.

So if you have more of a neutral 393 00:17:28,474 --> 00:17:30,994 Speaker 3: palette wardrobe, it's a way of adding an inject a 394 00:17:30,994 --> 00:17:33,714 Speaker 3: bit of color. It's fun and even tied around the 395 00:17:33,754 --> 00:17:34,434 Speaker 3: waist as. 396 00:17:34,274 --> 00:17:37,194 Speaker 1: Well, yes, or abu your like, yeah, your shoulders. 397 00:17:37,234 --> 00:17:41,154 Speaker 2: Yes, preppy, sporty.

I literally just 401 00:17:46,954 --> 00:17:52,474 Speaker 3: got back from China and broaches are everywhere. Yes, we 402 00:17:52,554 --> 00:17:56,874 Speaker 3: know this with customization accessories and adding things to bags, 403 00:17:56,874 --> 00:17:59,314 Speaker 3: et cetera is a trend. We've seen this everywhere from 404 00:17:59,314 --> 00:18:02,714 Speaker 3: Michael Kors New York Fashion Week, Georgio Omani and Milan 405 00:18:02,794 --> 00:18:06,273 Speaker 3: Fashion Week, and even recently with Chanelle Mature Bluzzy with 406 00:18:06,394 --> 00:18:08,114 Speaker 3: his full Winter twenty six collection. 407 00:18:08,194 --> 00:18:11,674 Speaker 2: You have that really beautiful floral broch. 408 00:18:11,474 --> 00:18:14,714 Speaker 4: Yes, Celene as well, there's been lots of brooches at 409 00:18:14,794 --> 00:18:16,994 Speaker 4: Selene Life, and I love how they're sort of the 410 00:18:17,034 --> 00:18:20,194 Speaker 4: classic brooch on the lapel. But what I was seeing 411 00:18:20,274 --> 00:18:25,314 Speaker 4: is more brooches on other sort of accessories, particularly long 412 00:18:25,314 --> 00:18:28,594 Speaker 4: shot bags and brooches. And I'm actually putting these two together. 413 00:18:28,914 --> 00:18:32,474 Speaker 4: Everywhere in China people had the long shop bag covered 414 00:18:32,594 --> 00:18:37,074 Speaker 4: in brochures and this personalization customization. This is so cool 415 00:18:37,114 --> 00:18:40,154 Speaker 4: because what an easy like it's kind of an accessible 416 00:18:40,194 --> 00:18:43,313 Speaker 4: way to get that high fashion look. Like obviously a 417 00:18:43,354 --> 00:18:46,674 Speaker 4: long shot bag isn't cheap cheap, but like it's a 418 00:18:46,714 --> 00:18:50,314 Speaker 4: more accessible item than a burkin ex rightly right, because 419 00:18:50,314 --> 00:18:52,194 Speaker 4: it's nylon, you can that's all. 420 00:18:52,234 --> 00:18:55,154 Speaker 3: It's entry level price, but you're still getting a taste 421 00:18:55,154 --> 00:18:57,954 Speaker 3: of luxury. It's a blank canvase when you think about 422 00:18:57,954 --> 00:19:00,674 Speaker 3: the size of it, nylon, Like you said, it works 423 00:19:00,714 --> 00:19:03,994 Speaker 3: perfectly and everyone's it is funny though we're talking about 424 00:19:03,994 --> 00:19:04,994 Speaker 3: personal style today. 425 00:19:05,274 --> 00:19:07,754 Speaker 2: One person's done this. Now it's sort of. 426 00:19:07,714 --> 00:19:11,674 Speaker 3: Everywhere all around China and on print long shunk tick, 427 00:19:11,714 --> 00:19:13,234 Speaker 3: copying that Brooch's tick. 428 00:19:14,074 --> 00:19:15,194 Speaker 2: You could really do this. 429 00:19:15,354 --> 00:19:18,354 Speaker 3: I also saw a lou Verton never full bag with 430 00:19:18,554 --> 00:19:22,114 Speaker 3: iron on patches, which is just so cool and almost 431 00:19:22,114 --> 00:19:25,154 Speaker 3: plays into that Jane Burkhin style of But. 432 00:19:25,154 --> 00:19:27,794 Speaker 4: Do you think someone took an iron to their Louis? 433 00:19:27,834 --> 00:19:30,554 Speaker 3: I really do, and I think it plays into that 434 00:19:30,674 --> 00:19:36,114 Speaker 3: like not taking fashion too seriously and almost like it's disposable. 435 00:19:36,394 --> 00:19:37,674 Speaker 4: I don't know about you, but if I own a 436 00:19:37,714 --> 00:19:40,034 Speaker 4: Louis Viton never full, I'm going to be taking it seriously. 437 00:19:40,794 --> 00:19:42,394 Speaker 4: I'm not getting the ye, I'm not putting the eye 438 00:19:42,434 --> 00:19:43,314 Speaker 4: it anywhere near it. 439 00:19:43,354 --> 00:19:47,114 Speaker 3: There's something special about it. But yeah, anyways, I love 440 00:19:47,154 --> 00:19:49,634 Speaker 3: this idea of brooches on bags. So in terms of 441 00:19:49,674 --> 00:19:51,594 Speaker 3: trying to create this look, you could do it on 442 00:19:51,634 --> 00:19:53,754 Speaker 3: a long shot bag, which goes for roughly two hundred 443 00:19:53,754 --> 00:19:56,554 Speaker 3: and seventy five dollars. But Unico, we spoke about the J. W. 444 00:19:56,754 --> 00:19:59,754 Speaker 3: Anderson collaboration a couple of weeks ago. He's got a 445 00:19:59,754 --> 00:20:02,474 Speaker 3: bag and it has the J. W. Anderson logo on 446 00:20:02,514 --> 00:20:05,074 Speaker 3: it for forty nine dollars, huge blank canvas, so you 447 00:20:05,114 --> 00:20:08,354 Speaker 3: can put your brooches on that. So when it brooches, Yes, 448 00:20:08,514 --> 00:20:11,314 Speaker 3: you can go buy the brooches from say a high 449 00:20:11,314 --> 00:20:15,553 Speaker 3: street store, because brooches are becoming a trending piece. But 450 00:20:15,634 --> 00:20:18,994 Speaker 3: to really make this special to you and customize, have 451 00:20:19,074 --> 00:20:22,353 Speaker 3: a look at your grandmother's cupboard, your mother's cupboard, have 452 00:20:22,394 --> 00:20:24,513 Speaker 3: a look at vintage stores or on deep hop, just 453 00:20:24,554 --> 00:20:27,754 Speaker 3: to find brooches that are actually really compelling and mean 454 00:20:27,834 --> 00:20:30,313 Speaker 3: something to you. Maybe it's somewhere you've traveled, Maybe that 455 00:20:30,354 --> 00:20:32,834 Speaker 3: becomes a thing of the places you travel to. You 456 00:20:32,874 --> 00:20:35,474 Speaker 3: collect brooches that then go on your long shomp. So 457 00:20:35,634 --> 00:20:38,074 Speaker 3: try with all this personal style chat that we're talking 458 00:20:38,114 --> 00:20:40,434 Speaker 3: about today, we could try if you can make it 459 00:20:40,474 --> 00:20:41,114 Speaker 3: more personal. 460 00:20:41,474 --> 00:20:43,194 Speaker 4: Let's go to a quick break, and when we come back, 461 00:20:43,234 --> 00:20:47,674 Speaker 4: we're going to be discussing some formulas for easier dressing, 462 00:20:47,834 --> 00:20:51,114 Speaker 4: approaching your wardrobe in new ways. We've got a couple 463 00:20:51,114 --> 00:20:53,954 Speaker 4: of viral theories to unpack, and then Lucin is going 464 00:20:53,994 --> 00:20:57,674 Speaker 4: to break down some tips for elevating your personal style. 465 00:21:07,274 --> 00:21:10,634 Speaker 3: So finding your own personal style in twenty twenty six. 466 00:21:10,914 --> 00:21:14,074 Speaker 3: I find the whole thing quite ironic because personal style, 467 00:21:14,114 --> 00:21:18,434 Speaker 3: I think no longer feels personal. I think it feels outsourced, 468 00:21:18,754 --> 00:21:22,514 Speaker 3: and our own taste is no longer in isolation, sort 469 00:21:22,514 --> 00:21:25,154 Speaker 3: of shaped by algorithms get ready with me and just 470 00:21:25,234 --> 00:21:28,714 Speaker 3: following different micro trends online. Yes, I think as well, 471 00:21:28,874 --> 00:21:32,194 Speaker 3: personal style is now content. I don't think for everyone. 472 00:21:32,314 --> 00:21:36,354 Speaker 3: I think this is more directed towards influences. But I 473 00:21:36,354 --> 00:21:38,834 Speaker 3: think Coachella is a great example of this. I think 474 00:21:38,874 --> 00:21:41,834 Speaker 3: people sometimes choose outfits about whether it's going to look 475 00:21:41,834 --> 00:21:44,553 Speaker 3: good in their feed or is it going to photograph well. 476 00:21:45,114 --> 00:21:47,954 Speaker 3: So we're seeing all these people look really good in 477 00:21:48,034 --> 00:21:52,194 Speaker 3: our feeds, but there's less people with distinct personal taste. 478 00:21:52,554 --> 00:21:55,674 Speaker 4: The question is like, does their style look great on 479 00:21:55,754 --> 00:21:58,434 Speaker 4: social book, how do they actually dress offline? 480 00:21:58,514 --> 00:21:59,154 Speaker 2: That's right. 481 00:21:59,434 --> 00:22:03,394 Speaker 4: I personally grapple with this as a you know, somewhat 482 00:22:03,394 --> 00:22:05,834 Speaker 4: of a well, I'm a content creator, as are you 483 00:22:06,474 --> 00:22:09,474 Speaker 4: and off and I find myself taking photos as we 484 00:22:09,634 --> 00:22:12,154 Speaker 4: I'm sure many of us do, of my outfits and 485 00:22:12,194 --> 00:22:14,273 Speaker 4: I'm like, well, that's not good enough for the feed, 486 00:22:14,794 --> 00:22:18,914 Speaker 4: but it's what I'm wearing today, So it's genuinely reflective 487 00:22:18,954 --> 00:22:21,194 Speaker 4: of my style. But I don't determine it to be 488 00:22:21,274 --> 00:22:24,114 Speaker 4: good enough to like good quality enough to go on 489 00:22:24,154 --> 00:22:26,274 Speaker 4: the feed because it's not like refined enough, or it's 490 00:22:26,274 --> 00:22:29,754 Speaker 4: not trendy enough. Right, So that's the kind of personal 491 00:22:29,794 --> 00:22:34,434 Speaker 4: tension that I feel with this. Yeah, so personal style, 492 00:22:34,554 --> 00:22:38,314 Speaker 4: I think, you know, it's an evolution, and I think 493 00:22:38,474 --> 00:22:40,714 Speaker 4: part of the if we're looking at the pros. We've 494 00:22:40,714 --> 00:22:42,954 Speaker 4: talked a bit about the cons of, you know, of 495 00:22:43,554 --> 00:22:47,914 Speaker 4: style becoming like packaged and compartmentalized for social media. But 496 00:22:48,274 --> 00:22:50,314 Speaker 4: if we look at the pros of that, you can 497 00:22:50,474 --> 00:22:53,874 Speaker 4: cherry pick references and cherry pick you know, like different 498 00:22:54,234 --> 00:22:57,394 Speaker 4: inspirations for any given moment in your life. Now right, 499 00:22:57,514 --> 00:23:00,033 Speaker 4: I find it really helpful, Like when I'm getting dressed 500 00:23:00,034 --> 00:23:02,273 Speaker 4: in the morning, to go to my Instagram, go to 501 00:23:02,314 --> 00:23:04,114 Speaker 4: my save fold, or I have one that just is 502 00:23:04,154 --> 00:23:06,034 Speaker 4: called style and I go in there just to give 503 00:23:06,074 --> 00:23:08,474 Speaker 4: me a little burst of innspat opiration. But I think 504 00:23:08,514 --> 00:23:11,914 Speaker 4: we're always evolving our style. It's never stagnant, right, and 505 00:23:11,994 --> 00:23:14,874 Speaker 4: so the constant evolution of our style is sort of 506 00:23:14,914 --> 00:23:16,874 Speaker 4: reflected back at us at all the trends we're being 507 00:23:17,514 --> 00:23:19,874 Speaker 4: attacked with every day. But I do think there are 508 00:23:19,914 --> 00:23:21,834 Speaker 4: positives to take from this, absolutely. 509 00:23:21,914 --> 00:23:22,074 Speaker 3: Yeah. 510 00:23:22,114 --> 00:23:24,234 Speaker 1: I certainly get a lot out of it too. 511 00:23:24,554 --> 00:23:25,594 Speaker 2: Yeah, so in. 512 00:23:25,594 --> 00:23:27,914 Speaker 4: Terms of the positives that I'm taking, Like, someone that 513 00:23:27,954 --> 00:23:31,714 Speaker 4: I follow on social media is the stylist Alison Bornstein. 514 00:23:31,834 --> 00:23:34,594 Speaker 4: She's an LA based stylist and author. She's written a 515 00:23:34,594 --> 00:23:37,234 Speaker 4: book as well. I've spoken about her on the show before. 516 00:23:37,274 --> 00:23:39,954 Speaker 4: She's one of my big influences as a writer, as 517 00:23:39,994 --> 00:23:42,674 Speaker 4: a stylist, in her personal look as well and how 518 00:23:42,674 --> 00:23:47,034 Speaker 4: she curates fashion. And she is quite well known, especially 519 00:23:47,074 --> 00:23:50,274 Speaker 4: in the sort of content space, for coining the free 520 00:23:50,314 --> 00:23:52,954 Speaker 4: word theory. That's something that a lot of listeners might 521 00:23:52,994 --> 00:23:55,714 Speaker 4: be across, but if it's new to you, Basically the 522 00:23:55,794 --> 00:23:59,674 Speaker 4: idea is that you choose three words that describe your 523 00:23:59,794 --> 00:24:03,314 Speaker 4: style or how you want your style to feel. Right, 524 00:24:03,834 --> 00:24:06,634 Speaker 4: And I think we might have shared ours in the past, 525 00:24:06,754 --> 00:24:08,874 Speaker 4: but I'd don't know for me, talking about style as 526 00:24:08,874 --> 00:24:11,714 Speaker 4: an evolution might have changed a year ago. 527 00:24:11,874 --> 00:24:15,234 Speaker 2: For sure, even my probably caudallymun change. 528 00:24:15,354 --> 00:24:18,114 Speaker 4: Really, So where are you at now? Can I ask 529 00:24:18,154 --> 00:24:18,954 Speaker 4: your three words? 530 00:24:18,994 --> 00:24:20,274 Speaker 2: And we should mention as well. 531 00:24:20,314 --> 00:24:23,793 Speaker 3: The three words ones your base, so your everyday default. 532 00:24:23,994 --> 00:24:26,674 Speaker 3: Number two is your aspirational edge, so where you're sort 533 00:24:26,674 --> 00:24:28,754 Speaker 3: of wanting to push your style, So this is the 534 00:24:28,794 --> 00:24:31,034 Speaker 3: word that's changing for me all the time. And then 535 00:24:31,314 --> 00:24:35,554 Speaker 3: three is your practical anchor. So what you're really actually wearing? Okay, 536 00:24:35,714 --> 00:24:41,754 Speaker 3: So mine right now is classic, refined sporty. So classic 537 00:24:41,994 --> 00:24:44,434 Speaker 3: literally what I'm wearing now, I'm always in denim and 538 00:24:44,474 --> 00:24:46,994 Speaker 3: a white tea. The word I'm trying to be a 539 00:24:47,074 --> 00:24:49,194 Speaker 3: bit more aspirational in is refined. 540 00:24:49,274 --> 00:24:51,394 Speaker 2: I'd like to be more refined. 541 00:24:54,674 --> 00:24:56,754 Speaker 1: But okay, and work on that. 542 00:24:56,834 --> 00:25:01,354 Speaker 3: What's the practical anchor? Mine's sporty. I am always in activewear. Yeah, 543 00:25:01,594 --> 00:25:03,754 Speaker 3: so based on those three words, can you tell me 544 00:25:03,794 --> 00:25:04,314 Speaker 3: yours now? 545 00:25:04,594 --> 00:25:04,914 Speaker 1: Okay? 546 00:25:04,914 --> 00:25:06,714 Speaker 4: So I've always just thought of it as three words 547 00:25:06,754 --> 00:25:08,754 Speaker 4: that I aligned with ye for my style, A lot 548 00:25:08,754 --> 00:25:11,553 Speaker 4: of people do. Yeah, yeah, yeah, So my words, I 549 00:25:11,554 --> 00:25:17,034 Speaker 4: would say bohemian relaxed but then elevated, which are kind 550 00:25:17,114 --> 00:25:19,434 Speaker 4: of Sometimes there can be a bit of tension in 551 00:25:19,474 --> 00:25:21,354 Speaker 4: the two words, but I think that's part of tension, 552 00:25:21,434 --> 00:25:23,714 Speaker 4: is part of fashion, is how the relaxed in the 553 00:25:23,754 --> 00:25:26,793 Speaker 4: elevated can work together. I love this, Yeah, but they 554 00:25:26,834 --> 00:25:28,914 Speaker 4: are always changing, are always evolving. 555 00:25:28,994 --> 00:25:32,634 Speaker 1: I would never have said bohemian four years ago. 556 00:25:32,674 --> 00:25:36,674 Speaker 4: I think bohemian came about when we moved to the 557 00:25:36,714 --> 00:25:40,194 Speaker 4: coast and I kind of leaned more into that, you know, 558 00:25:40,314 --> 00:25:42,994 Speaker 4: relaxed but that sort of coastal lifestyle where it's sort 559 00:25:43,034 --> 00:25:45,674 Speaker 4: of everything's more flowy. And I don't mean flowy in 560 00:25:45,674 --> 00:25:48,394 Speaker 4: the sense of like wearing Maxi dresses every day. I 561 00:25:48,434 --> 00:25:51,754 Speaker 4: just mean like embracing ease in my style. Whereas when 562 00:25:51,754 --> 00:25:54,754 Speaker 4: I worked in the city, everything was more structured and tailored. 563 00:25:54,754 --> 00:25:57,674 Speaker 4: I simply do not need blazers anymore unless I'm like 564 00:25:57,754 --> 00:25:59,994 Speaker 4: dressing up to go out. There's just certain pieces that 565 00:26:00,034 --> 00:26:03,114 Speaker 4: don't function in my wardrobe. So I don't like, on 566 00:26:03,154 --> 00:26:05,634 Speaker 4: the point of personal style, I really don't think you 567 00:26:05,674 --> 00:26:09,754 Speaker 4: can separate style and lifestyle. I think they are so 568 00:26:09,874 --> 00:26:14,034 Speaker 4: intertwined and for me, style has been has a volved 569 00:26:14,074 --> 00:26:16,594 Speaker 4: for me along with my lifestyle and continues to do 570 00:26:16,674 --> 00:26:21,553 Speaker 4: so even entering motherhood. You know, my style shifted completely 571 00:26:21,594 --> 00:26:26,234 Speaker 4: when I had a baby because motherhood, you know, challenged 572 00:26:26,274 --> 00:26:29,434 Speaker 4: me in many ways, but you know in my wardrobe 573 00:26:29,474 --> 00:26:31,234 Speaker 4: to have to wear new things, as you know, I 574 00:26:31,274 --> 00:26:33,394 Speaker 4: needed to find comfort in how I'm dressed, but I 575 00:26:33,434 --> 00:26:35,834 Speaker 4: needed to find an elevated version of that that made 576 00:26:35,874 --> 00:26:39,074 Speaker 4: me feel good when I left the house. So for example, 577 00:26:39,114 --> 00:26:42,234 Speaker 4: with the outfit I'm wearing today, obviously the pants, the 578 00:26:42,274 --> 00:26:46,194 Speaker 4: fluid you know, printed pant is like the bohemian aspect. 579 00:26:46,714 --> 00:26:51,313 Speaker 4: The relaxed is definitely the you know, easy sort of 580 00:26:51,314 --> 00:26:53,634 Speaker 4: white staple tea. 581 00:26:53,434 --> 00:26:54,114 Speaker 1: That I've got on. 582 00:26:54,634 --> 00:26:57,434 Speaker 4: And I'd even say this jacket as well as very relaxed. 583 00:26:57,474 --> 00:27:00,234 Speaker 4: But the elevated comes through in like choice of jewelry, 584 00:27:00,434 --> 00:27:03,714 Speaker 4: you know, a strappy sand all back with that kind 585 00:27:03,714 --> 00:27:06,194 Speaker 4: of picking it up and making. 586 00:27:05,954 --> 00:27:06,874 Speaker 1: Sure that it's polished. 587 00:27:07,354 --> 00:27:09,874 Speaker 4: For me, like I always do, want to look elevated 588 00:27:09,914 --> 00:27:13,354 Speaker 4: in my style and not too casual. I show, you know, 589 00:27:13,474 --> 00:27:15,194 Speaker 4: even in day to day I'm like, what's the tweak 590 00:27:15,234 --> 00:27:17,474 Speaker 4: I can apply to make that look a bit cooler. 591 00:27:17,514 --> 00:27:20,074 Speaker 4: Whether that's it can also come through in you know, 592 00:27:20,114 --> 00:27:22,994 Speaker 4: it's not just clothes, it's the way you style yourself. 593 00:27:23,034 --> 00:27:25,354 Speaker 4: It's literally pulling your hair back in a tight bun 594 00:27:25,794 --> 00:27:30,273 Speaker 4: to give your outfit a completely different sort of mood. Right, Yeah, 595 00:27:30,314 --> 00:27:33,114 Speaker 4: and the glasses that you're wearing, you know today, with 596 00:27:33,154 --> 00:27:35,074 Speaker 4: your outfit, with your denim, take it to a whole 597 00:27:35,074 --> 00:27:36,154 Speaker 4: different level. 598 00:27:36,754 --> 00:27:36,994 Speaker 2: Yeah. 599 00:27:37,074 --> 00:27:37,274 Speaker 1: Yeah. 600 00:27:37,834 --> 00:27:40,074 Speaker 3: And some words if you're playing long at home, these 601 00:27:40,074 --> 00:27:49,994 Speaker 3: are some of the words you can use. We've got minimal, tailored, cool, clean, structured, effortless, polished, feminine, strong, undone, romantic, electric, joyful. 602 00:27:50,034 --> 00:27:53,793 Speaker 3: There's plenty of words and streams from but yeah, like 603 00:27:53,874 --> 00:27:56,434 Speaker 3: you constantly changing, they're meant to be fun and it's 604 00:27:56,434 --> 00:27:58,513 Speaker 3: meant to just be that north star when getting dressed. 605 00:27:58,514 --> 00:27:59,994 Speaker 2: Instead of going, oh what am I going to wear? 606 00:28:00,074 --> 00:28:01,194 Speaker 2: Or who do I want to be today? 607 00:28:01,234 --> 00:28:04,474 Speaker 3: Just go back to your anchored free words that can 608 00:28:04,514 --> 00:28:07,874 Speaker 3: help distill and give structure to what you're thinking of. 609 00:28:07,954 --> 00:28:11,394 Speaker 4: Ye, So thank you Allison for that that one. In Jeers, 610 00:28:11,514 --> 00:28:14,353 Speaker 4: I've got a new one for you. So this is 611 00:28:14,434 --> 00:28:18,434 Speaker 4: called the three Forces of Cool, and it's not super viral. 612 00:28:18,474 --> 00:28:20,834 Speaker 4: It's something that I came across on my Instagram. I 613 00:28:20,834 --> 00:28:23,353 Speaker 4: came across this theory and I've actually been using it 614 00:28:23,394 --> 00:28:26,154 Speaker 4: ever since. I'll give you an example of an outfit 615 00:28:26,314 --> 00:28:28,154 Speaker 4: that I applied it to, but first just to unpack 616 00:28:28,194 --> 00:28:30,154 Speaker 4: the theory a little bit. So it's credit to a 617 00:28:30,194 --> 00:28:34,114 Speaker 4: personal stylist called fee Zeelenberg and she just, yeah, she's 618 00:28:34,154 --> 00:28:37,194 Speaker 4: a stylist who works with ordinary women and shares content 619 00:28:37,274 --> 00:28:40,434 Speaker 4: on Instagram around style. She's really great for a follow 620 00:28:40,994 --> 00:28:44,674 Speaker 4: and basically her theory is about why some outfits feel 621 00:28:44,714 --> 00:28:48,274 Speaker 4: inherently cool and others fall flat. So if you ever 622 00:28:48,314 --> 00:28:50,714 Speaker 4: see a stylish person on the street and you wonder, 623 00:28:50,754 --> 00:28:53,514 Speaker 4: like how they why do they look so damn cool? Like, 624 00:28:53,674 --> 00:28:57,794 Speaker 4: she thinks that there's three elements to every look that 625 00:28:58,074 --> 00:29:00,474 Speaker 4: you kind of need to tick the boxes, and that 626 00:29:00,474 --> 00:29:03,954 Speaker 4: that outfit will automatically read is cool, which is really interesting. 627 00:29:04,114 --> 00:29:04,954 Speaker 2: Is a stimula. 628 00:29:05,314 --> 00:29:07,754 Speaker 1: Yeah, so the three fourths of cool. 629 00:29:07,914 --> 00:29:11,834 Speaker 4: Okay, Theoretically anyone can apply to their outfit if they 630 00:29:11,834 --> 00:29:16,114 Speaker 4: can balance these three elements and they are class, edge, 631 00:29:16,314 --> 00:29:16,874 Speaker 4: and ease. 632 00:29:17,154 --> 00:29:17,434 Speaker 2: Okay. 633 00:29:17,714 --> 00:29:21,674 Speaker 4: So class is basically that your outfit is grounded with 634 00:29:21,914 --> 00:29:24,474 Speaker 4: what we call like classic or polished pieces. If you 635 00:29:24,514 --> 00:29:29,194 Speaker 4: think about crisp shirting or blazers, or even like elegant 636 00:29:29,234 --> 00:29:33,474 Speaker 4: shoes like ballet flats or loafers. Right, edge is what 637 00:29:33,594 --> 00:29:37,194 Speaker 4: gives it that fashion forward component. So this can manifest 638 00:29:37,274 --> 00:29:39,994 Speaker 4: through accessories that's a really obvious one, like maybe a 639 00:29:40,034 --> 00:29:44,154 Speaker 4: sculptural bag or shoe, you know, a wrong shoe, so 640 00:29:44,274 --> 00:29:46,354 Speaker 4: like something that sort of offsets the outfit and feels 641 00:29:46,354 --> 00:29:49,914 Speaker 4: a little bit offbeat. Sunny is like unexpected jewelry, maybe 642 00:29:49,914 --> 00:29:52,434 Speaker 4: going for a chunky piece of jewelry rather than a 643 00:29:52,474 --> 00:29:53,674 Speaker 4: refined piece of jewelry. 644 00:29:54,034 --> 00:29:55,794 Speaker 1: And then the last element is ease. 645 00:29:56,154 --> 00:29:59,834 Speaker 4: So what makes your look feel relaxed, So this might 646 00:29:59,914 --> 00:30:03,434 Speaker 4: be opting for denim, you know, relaxed denim or a 647 00:30:03,474 --> 00:30:06,594 Speaker 4: simple white T shirt. But it's also about again how 648 00:30:06,634 --> 00:30:10,034 Speaker 4: you style those pieces. So you might wear your shirt unbuttoned, 649 00:30:10,594 --> 00:30:12,954 Speaker 4: you know, you might have a slouchier bag, and they're 650 00:30:12,954 --> 00:30:16,594 Speaker 4: all over styling is just looser. So her theory is 651 00:30:16,634 --> 00:30:20,394 Speaker 4: that once these three forces come together, that equals cool. 652 00:30:20,554 --> 00:30:21,434 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on that? 653 00:30:22,274 --> 00:30:24,274 Speaker 3: And I guess edge is a nice way to start 654 00:30:24,314 --> 00:30:27,154 Speaker 3: playing around with those micro trends. Right So maybe it's 655 00:30:27,194 --> 00:30:30,994 Speaker 3: the bandana scarf around your pants or skirt or something. 656 00:30:31,874 --> 00:30:35,194 Speaker 3: I've never heard of this, and I love this idea. 657 00:30:35,394 --> 00:30:38,114 Speaker 3: It's just a nice formula to think about, and a 658 00:30:38,114 --> 00:30:41,274 Speaker 3: lot of us perhaps do this already, yeah right, but 659 00:30:41,314 --> 00:30:43,994 Speaker 3: it's really nice just seeing it clearly that one two 660 00:30:44,034 --> 00:30:46,234 Speaker 3: three step when getting ready, I think so. 661 00:30:46,274 --> 00:30:47,954 Speaker 4: I think it's one of those ones you see it, 662 00:30:48,314 --> 00:30:50,474 Speaker 4: or once you try it, you can't sort of unsee it. 663 00:30:50,594 --> 00:30:54,914 Speaker 4: I started experimenting with this recently. I wore an outfit 664 00:30:54,954 --> 00:30:58,194 Speaker 4: that was I think, balance the forces really well and 665 00:30:58,234 --> 00:31:01,394 Speaker 4: it came across really like it achieved what I wanted 666 00:31:01,394 --> 00:31:04,674 Speaker 4: it to achieve.
