We’ve all heard the term, but what does mid-century modern really mean? How is it distinct from 70s glam? What’s Scandinavian design?  After this episode, you’ll (hopefully) have answers to these questions. Plus, you'll be able to communicate your dream home concept like a pro, which is sure to come in handy once you secure that spot on House Hunters.

Episode 2 is all about trends in hair.

Falling into Fashion: A Guide to this Season’s Signature Pieces

Falling into Fashion: A Guide to this Season’s Signature Pieces

Episodes with music are only available on Spotify.
Hello and welcome to the first episode of my new podcast series: Get Cultured. Each episode will explore one aspect of the world of lifestyle, beginning with my original, and primary obsession: fashion. For me, fashion was the gateway to the vast realm of art, culture, aesthetics, recreation, food, design, and style that we now bundle up into one all-encompassing package, referred to as lifestyle. As my fellow fashionistas are well aware, fashion is more than physical garments. It’s a story, a rich narrative transcending time and space. And today, I, along with my guest, the pop cultural specialist, Barnard student, oat milk lover Kristin Merrilees, who by the way is published in the New York Times Style Section, will take you on a journey through the Autumn 2020 fashion story, trend by trend, style by style, look by look, and snood by snood.
