Ep. 39: Author Christine Morrison on how style has guided her life decisions—from relationships to where she lives to her career and publishing her first book at 56
<p dir="ltr">We are so excited to welcome author Christine Morrison to the pod this week! Christine is a seasoned writer, editor, and brand builder who recenlty published her first book, a fashion essay collection entitled Clothes Minded: Fashionable Essays About Finding Yourself.</p> <p dir="ltr">As you'll hear in the conversation, the title is apt. Fashion was Christine's guiding light when it came to which boyfriends to dump and which jobs to move accross the ountry for. And style is still leading the way—she explores on her substack <a href="https://substack.com/@writinginblackandwhite">Writing in Black and White</a> what it means to value personal style into your 50s and beyond.</p> <p dir="ltr">In this episode, we discuss an unfortunate encounter with a orange and black windowpane suit, more than one sub-optimal boyfriend, her time at Calvin Klein (just a few years after Caroline Bessette graced the brands hallways), and more tidbits that will make you want to pick up her book to get more juicy details. </p> <p>We hope you enjoy this episode and if you do, we'd be so grateful if you wrote a review! </p>

Ep. 38: What to wear over 50—don't Google it
<p dir="ltr">This will not be a surprise to anyone who's been following along with the pod: We think fashion rules, especially when they correspond to age, are really dumb and you should ignore them. It's shocking to us that these rules persist, and saddens us that when a woman Google's "how to dress after 50," she is fed all sorts of nonsense. </p> <p dir="ltr">For this episode, we dive into those Google results. We walk you through why the results are a travesty, and what to do instead. </p> <p dir="ltr">The main takeaway? "F*ck you Lloyd."<br /> <br /> We hope you enjoy this episode, and if you do please leave us a review. We'd be so grateful!</p> <p> </p>

Ep. 37: What happens when you wear the wrong thing?
<p>The desire for acceptance and belonging is deeply human. And fashion is one way that we signal who we are and what group we belong to. So it's not weird to freak out a little bit if you find yourself at an event wearing something that feels way different from everyone else. </p> <p>In this episode, Kristen describes a recent occasion when she had exactly that experience. Even at 57 and with a lifetime of getting dressed behind her, she still freaked out a little!</p> <p>Jennine offers some perspective and tips on how to get dressed so that it's less likely to happen, and when it does, how to remain calm.</p> <p><strong>We discuss: </strong></p> <ul> <li>What Planet of the Apes can teach us about the need to feel accepted </li> <li>How to get dressed based on how you want to feel </li> <li>Internal versus external locus of control</li> <li>How to avoid the vortex of changing 25 times before you leave the house</li> <li>How trying to "dress for the occasion" can backfire</li> </ul> <p>And lots more! We hope you enjoy this episode, and please leave us a review if you do!</p> <p> </p>
