In this episode, we talk all about finding your own style and that it can take some time to get to a place where you find it! We cover: Learning how to take your measurements What is length, pit to pit, hips, waist, laying flat and where is that on your body Over time you might find your personal style changes a lot - it did for both of us How much trends effected both of us - when did we more become confident in our own style, is it still changing? How to recognize what styles work really well for you vs ones that you keep having trouble with or end up not wearing What is each our favorite thing we own vs, the thing we wear most Is it okay to have pieces you just love looking at but don’t wear Can clothes just the same as collecting books - guilt about “material quality “ thinking about it more as textiles - and when it’s textiles somehow it’s ok and not materialistic?
