022: Summer Sport Report
Not only is it the summer of MMF threesomes (thanks, Zendaya), it is also the summer of SPORTING. Whether you're into golf, tennis, soccer, lacrosse, rock climbing, or just *looking* like you're into any of the above, there's a brand and a look for you. In our current era of stuff and lifestyles and cultural caché, every hobby comes with a bevy of gear, and we're here to break down some of the cutest options.
The girls also break down the battle of the two Spanish it-girl brands popping up in SoHo (Gimaguas vs. Paloma Wool), footwear that is actually comfy (if you can believe it!), and the eternal quest for good intimates to wear under see-through garments. -
021: Nothing But Met
It's only been four days since Fashion's Big Night but everyone is already sick of hearing about it. Won't stop us from putting out an additional hour and a half of Met Gala commentary! We discuss the hot gossip on Galliano (present), Rihanna (not present), and more. Plus, Challengers' Josh O'Connor has the girls horny, tree dresses abound, and we break down our winners and losers of the night.

020: Bergdorf Egg & Cheese
Field trip time! The girls journey to the center of the Philo-verse, and find many grails along the way. From the perfect Prada investment bag to $300 Dries van Noten socks, Marni flats, and JW Anderson miniskirts, BG provided plenty of fodder for this week's episode. Sometimes expensive things are better! While Phoebe Philo's first IRL pop-up was a bit of a downer, Bottega Veneta, The Row, Dries, Margiela, Vaquera, and MORE made our pilgrimage to midtown worth the subway ride.

019: Color Palette Cleanser
We ask the hard hitting questions this week, like: are trends inherently BAD?! (no); what's wrong with dressing BASIC (nothing); what does our desire for individuality say about us? Is golf the next tennis? What does our hunger for IRL events mean for our wardrobes? Is there such a thing as a wasted outfit?
Spiritually, we need bare legs again and the nirvana of embarrassment.
And lastly, big focus on COLOR! Some colors mentioned in this episode: Rick Owens pink, crimson red, ballet pink, peach fuzz, lavender, limoncello, San Rio green, iridescence, American Apparel blue/purple, Welch's purple, yurple, chocolate brown, warm tan, volcano orange. -
018: The Office Siren Song
We are all about business these days, from balancing budgets to optimizing wardrobes and becoming the ultimate I.T. girls. Corporate Fetish, Corp-core, Office Siren, Bistro Vibes... whatever you call it, it's undeniable that the 90s office aesthetic and lifestyle have been trending for some time now. Emma wants to dress like middle management and Trixie thinks undone office looks will be on the streets this summer. Plus, a bonus review of High & Low: John Galliano (TL;DW - cancel culture is canceled).

017: Flowers for Dries
The girls are caffeinated and ready to talk current fashion events: Dries Van Noten's graceful announcement, Phoebe Philo's new drop + interview, and more! Plus, although it is currently cold and windy in NYC, supposedly Spring is right around the corner. Trixie is looking for bubble skirts, fuzzy bags, statement accessories, and a hair makeover. Emma wants to give ruffled ingenue but can't find the right shoes.
