  1. Aleks Cvetkovic in "The Man Who Wears the Clothes"

    Aleks Cvetkovic in "The Man Who Wears the Clothes"

    This week’s guest is Aleks Cvetkovic, host of the excellent menswear podcast HandCut Radio. Aleks is also an accomplished journalist, having written for The Rake and Robb Report, among other publications. Aleks’ work on HandCut Radio was an influence of this podcast (along with Jeremy Kirkland’s Blamo! if you want to pair this chat with our Season 3 opener). I loved getting to talk to Aleks about his menswear journey, stumbling into a journalism career, working as a freelance writer, and all of his bold style choices (some he may now regret, but they still get my meaningless seal of approval). You can follow Aleks on Instagram at @aleks_cvetkovic. Follow @enlightenmyloafers on Instagram for show notes, style inspo, and more.

    Sergio Guadarrama & Kade Johnson in "The Celestino Moment"

    This week’s guests are Sergio Guadarrama and Kade Johnson of Celestino Couture. And you might recognize Sergio from the recently-wrapped Season 18 of Project Runway—and you’ll recognize Kade from that romantic finale proposal! I talk to Sergio and Kade about building Celestino, their personal style journeys, what it was like filming and watching Project Runway, and how they’re changing the world one dress at a time. I also put in a lot of hints that I want Sergio to make me a cape. Will he take the hint?! You can follow Sergio and Kade on Instagram at @celestinocouture.

    Amanda Valentine in "That's My Girl"

    This week’s guest is Amanda Valentine, a Nashville-based designer and stylist who brought her super hip, Southern chic vibe to Seasons 11 and 13 of Project Runway. You bet I had to ask Amanda all about her two turns on Project Runway and making it all the way to the top two of Season 13. We also talk about her work as a stylist, how hard it is to make menswear, and just have a chill, low-grade panic about the world! I sincerely loved this convo!! You can follow Amanda on Instagram at @valentimes. Follow @enlightenmyloafers on Instagram for show notes, style inspo, and more.
