Answering Your Biggest Spring Style Questions - Listener Q&A

Some of the most-asked questions I get are about the stuff we wear every single day, the work pants, the basics, the summer sandals, the first-date outfit. And honestly, these are the hardest things to get right, because they're the pieces that have to actually work in your real life.

I'm answering all of your questions, from the affordable work pants I've worn literally to Paris and back, to the sleepover outfit that isn't lingerie, to why I'm personally not betting on 90s minimalism being the trend of the year.

We also get into the reality of summer sandal shopping when you actually have to walk, the affordable basics that rival luxury, how to experiment with trends without blowing your budget, and my best advice for anyone trying to break into fashion right now.

In this episode, we get into:

• The $148 work pants I've worn from Paris Fashion Week to an LA birthday in the same day
• Where to actually find great tops that aren't tees or button-downs
• What to wear to a new fling's place that isn't lingerie but still feels good
• Why I don't believe in sneakers with sundresses — and what to wear instead
• The most comfortable summer sandals (and the ones that will ruin your vacation)
• The affordable basics that rival luxury (Uniqlo, Old Navy, Quince, COS)
• The $25 jeans that have been $25 since the 90s — and are actually good
• How to experiment with trends on Depop without overspending
• Why I think fashion is fun again and 90s minimalism isn't the trend of the year
• The first-date outfit formula that always works
• My honest advice for breaking into fashion (especially after a layoff)
