    Style Files: The Eccentric Old Lady in an English Manor

    Another episode of Style Files, where I talk with real listeners about their real style journeys. This time I’m talking with Valerie about how fit changed everything for her, how she built a personal style persona she calls “an eccentric old lady in an English manor,” and why personal style is often more about storytelling than rules. We also get into tailoring, thrifting, style systems, and finding what actually feels like you.

    Style Files: Lillian, The Artist vs. The Accountant

    In this episode of Style POV’s Style Files series, I sit down with Lillian to talk about her journey from postpartum style confusion to a sense of grounded clarity. Previously, she was deep in online advice, surface-level color analysis, and style systems that promised answers but often created more noise. We talk about growing up, the impact of COVID, her first virtual analysis, and what it felt like to move through multiple systems while searching for harmony, formulas, and something that actually felt right. Lillian shares how stepping back from social media, questioning rigid rules, and listening to her intuition changed everything. We dig into playful elegance as a personal style statement, building capsule wardrobes that truly work, and the moment when rules and intuition finally aligned. This conversation is honest, thoughtful, and deeply relatable for anyone who has felt torn between structure and creativity in their style.

    Style Is a Skill: Evolving with Intention with Mili Velikova

    What if personal style isn’t something you’re born with but something you can learn, refine, and evolve? In this episode of Style POV, I’m joined by Mili Velikova, a style educator and YouTube creator known for her grounded, analytical, and deeply creative approach to dressing well. Mili breaks down why “effortless style” is a myth and shows how small tweaks, intentional choices, and curiosity can completely transform the way you show up.

    What Is Personal Style (And Why It Matters) - with Hannah Poston

    What does personal style really mean, and why does it matter? In this episode, I sit down with writer and content creator Hannah Poston, known for her thoughtful, grounded approach to beauty and fashion. If you’ve watched her channel, you know she treats getting dressed as a daily practice rather than a performance, and that philosophy is at the heart of our conversation. Together, we unpack what it means to develop a personal point of view in a world saturated with trends and aesthetics. From understanding how taste evolves over time to finding a balance between investment pieces and novelty, this episode explores both the philosophy and the practicality of style. We also dive into the “knowledge gap” that makes fashion feel inaccessible to many, how the internet shapes our perception of what’s stylish, and how to reconnect with the joy and intention of getting dressed.

    Style, Spontaneity, and the Making of an Icon: Jane Birkin’s Story with Marisa Meltzer

    Today on Style POV, I’m joined by the incomparable Marisa Meltzer, bestselling author of Glossy and Girl Power, and a writer the New York Times calls “culturally astute and genuine.” In her latest work, It Girl: The Life and Legacy of Jane Birkin (out October 7th, 2025), Marisa traces how an insecure London teenager grew into the epitome of effortless French style. Our conversation pulls back the veil on Birkin- not just as a fashion icon, but as an artist, activist, and woman who embodied both myth and humanity. We explore the tension between style and spontaneity, the reality behind the legend, and how her influence endures far beyond the iconic bag that bears her name. We also dive into: Why Marisa chose Jane Birkin as the subject of her newest bookThe evolution of Birkin’s style, from uncertain beginnings to global influenceThe role of accident versus intention in her self-curationLife with Serge Gainsbourg and her fame in FranceThe cultural legacy of the Birkin bagBirkin’s artistry, activism, and family lifeA rare story about her connection to Princess DianaWhat to expect from It Girl upon its releaseWhether you’ve long admired Jane Birkin’s mystique or are curious about the woman behind the legend, this episode is an invitation to see beyond the surface- to discover the complexity, vulnerability, and brilliance that made her unforgettable.
