Let's Get Dressed

Fresh off the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in Los Angeles, I'm sitting on my closet floor (still in full glam!) to unpack everything that went down. From Kylie Jenner's $50 million Fantasy Bra and the return of the OG Angels to the incredible performances, surprise celebrity sightings, and the moments that made me emotional, we're getting into it all. I'm also diving into the Adam Selman effect, why I think he's one of the most interesting creative directors in fashion right now, and how Victoria's Secret is balancing nostalgia with a new generation of Angels. Plus, my thoughts on the PINK runway, the growing obsession with vintage Victoria's Secret dresses, and whether this whole spectacle actually makes us want to shop the brand again.

Is your wardrobe a want, a need, or an investment? Haley Sacks, aka Mrs. Dow Jones, makes the case that the clothes are never the investment. The investment is you in the clothes. Haley shares how to love fashion and still be smart with money. She explains how she applies the 50/30/20 budget to clothes, how freelancers can budget without a steady paycheck, and why a first corporate wardrobe counts as a real need. She walks through the trend cycle from the runway to fast-fashion dupes and gives her three tips for shopping with intention. She also gets candid about the Chanel bag and Birkin she bought expecting them to hold their value, and what actually happens at resale. Plus, Haley breaks down cost per wear vs. girl math, why buy now, pay later is a trap, and why women should never hand off control of their finances. In this episode, we get into: The 50/30/20 budget and where clothes actually fall How to budget for fashion as a freelancer, including setting aside money for taxes When a work wardrobe is a need, and why it's an investment in "future you" The fashion trend cycle, from runway to influencers to fast-fashion dupes Haley's tips for smarter shopping: audit your closet, know your goals, price check, shop secondhand, and return what you won't wear The three-day rule before buying anything Why Birkins and luxury handbags aren't investments Work wardrobe essentials Cost per wear vs. girl math, and why the "bad with money" stereotype hurts women Why buy now, pay later and splitting purchases are traps Haley's best closet investment - the Dries Van Noten dress she's worn to 12 weddings Thank you to our sponsor @macys #PaidPartner Shop Now at https://www.macys.com/shop/new-trending?id=342756 Haley Sacks Instagram: www.instagram.com/mrsdowjones Website: www.mrsdowjones.com Let’s Get Dressed YouTube: www.youtube.com/@livvperez Instagram: www.instagram.com/letsgetdressedpod Newsletter: https://substack.com/@livvperez Liv Perez Instagram: www.instagram.com/livvperez TikTok: www.tiktok.com/livv.perez ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/livvperez Let’s Get Dressed YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@livvperez Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/letsgetdressedpod/ Newsletter: https://substack.com/@livvperez Liv Perez Instagram: www.instagram.com/livvperez TikTok: www.tiktok.com/livv.perez ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/livvperez Hosted on Acast.

If you've ever wanted to channel your inner maximalist but didn't know where to start, this episode is for you. Style creator Julia Berolzheimer joins us to break down polished maximalism, her signature mix of color on color and print on print, and how to wear it so it feels refined, not over the top. We get into her formula for mixing prints: start with one statement piece, pay attention to texture, and find a single thread of a shared shade to tie it all together (plus why a stripe pairs with almost any print). We talk about why she invests in statements and saves on staples, how to test a bold piece at a lower price before you splurge, and the closet clean-out habit that helped her define her style. We also get into why the funky bag is always the outfit maker, how she vets Etsy sellers for one-of-a-kind finds, and how to build a work wardrobe that's fun but still office appropriate. Shop Julia's closet here: https://shopmy.us/shop/juliaberolzheimer?tab=latest In this episode, we get into: What "polished maximalism" actually means, and how Julia layers color, print, and embellishment, then pulls back just enough How her style evolved from college-era Topshop and Gal Meets Glam Collection to a funkier, less "sweet" point of view in her 30s Spotting patterns when you clean out your closet so you stop re-buying things you never wear How Julia mood boards for trips, seasons, and even her home, and why a mood board should be inspiration, not recreation Why interiors are some of her best sources of outfit inspiration Mixing prints without rules: starting with one piece, paying attention to texture, and why stripes pair with almost anything Jewelry as the connector that pulls a maximalist outfit together Why she ignores the "no more than three colors" rule Her one real rule: invest in statements, save on staples Finding your "outfit maker" pieces, and testing a statement at a lower price point before you splurge How Julia shops Etsy, from keyword searches to vetting sellers Her daily shopping rounds, the brands she loves for color and print right now, and why personality dressing is back for fall Receipts: the most expensive thing Julia has ever bought How she hunts for vintage jewelry at auction And how to building a work wardrobe that's fun but still office-appropriate Thank you to our sponsor @macys #PaidPartner Shop Now at https://www.macys.com/shop/new-trending?id=342756 Julia Berolzheimer Instagram: www.instagram.com/juliaberolzheimer Newsletter + Website: coreli.ai/juliaberolzheimer Let’s Get Dressed YouTube: www.youtube.com/@livvperez Instagram: www.instagram.com/letsgetdressedpod Newsletter: https://substack.com/@livvperez Liv Perez Instagram: www.instagram.com/livvperez TikTok: www.tiktok.com/livv.perez ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/livvperez Let’s Get Dressed YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@livvperez Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/letsgetdressedpod/ Newsletter: https://substack.com/@livvperez Liv Perez Instagram: www.instagram.com/livvperez TikTok: www.tiktok.com/livv.perez ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/livvperez Hosted on Acast.

Linoy Friedman, AKA What People Are Wearing breaks down the trends she spotted at New York Fashion Week. We get into the pop of red moment taking over street style (and how to actually find your shade), the sweater-tied-around-the-waist trick that's secretly a styling hack and not a trend at all, the return of statement necklaces and brooches as finishing touches, and the 3D texture -- fringe, feathers, pom-poms -- showing up on everything this season. We talk about why over-logoing an outfit is the fastest way to lose it, why "wear the trend, don't let the trend wear you" is the only rule either of us follows anymore, and her theory on which trends are actually worth buying into versus styling with what's already in your closet. We also get into her favorite shows of the week, the jeans and tees she and Liv actually reach for on repeat, and what she'd wear to a 30th birthday dinner if she wanted to feel elevated without trying too hard. Get your notes app ready, because this is going to be an episode you want to take note and shop! In this episode, we get into: How Linoy built What People Are Wearing into one of the most trusted street style accounts, and what she's actually looking for when she's clocking outfits in real time The biggest trends she spotted on the ground this Fashion Week, from a full-red moment to color blocking to 3D texture (fringe, feathers, pom-poms) showing up everywhere The sweater-around-the-waist trick that's secretly a styling hack, not a trend, and why she thinks the best trends are the ones already sitting in your closet The vintage-earring-on-a-vest moment that went viral on her account, and why she thinks brooches and statement necklaces are having a real comeback Her rule for wearing red without it looking try-hard, and why the right shoe is the easiest way to bring color into a wardrobe Her take on why over-logoing an outfit "loses the story," and the one styling sin she thinks should be illegal (branded caps) Her favorite shows of the week, including Magda Butrym's rose-covered runway and Rachel Scott's Proenza Schouler show, and why she can't stop thinking about either The jeans, tees, and jewelry she and Liv actually rebuy on repeat, from Levi's 501s to vintage YSL to her grandmother's 14 karats What she'd wear to a 30th birthday dinner in New York if she wanted to feel fun, elevated, and not too young Thank you to our sponsor @macys #PaidPartner Shop Now at https://www.macys.com/shop/new-trending?id=342756 Linoy Friedman Instagram: www.instagram.com/whatpeoplearewearing Newsletter: https://whatpeoplearewearing.substack.com/ Let’s Get Dressed YouTube: www.youtube.com/@livvperez Instagram: www.instagram.com/letsgetdressedpod Newsletter: https://substack.com/@livvperez Liv Perez Instagram: www.instagram.com/livvperez TikTok: www.tiktok.com/livv.perez ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/livvperez Let’s Get Dressed YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@livvperez Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/letsgetdressedpod/ Newsletter: https://substack.com/@livvperez Liv Perez Instagram: www.instagram.com/livvperez TikTok: www.tiktok.com/livv.perez ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/livvperez Hosted on Acast.
