Quick reminder, Erica has been a bff to both of us in life and fashion since we were 6-10 years old! YES we've seen each other through the birth AND RE-popularity of Ed Hardy and low cut jeans.This movie is the Celeb packed 1970s / Y2K mashup of our dreams. Expect all the nostalgic quotables, 2000s product placements galore, and Alana on her Tan-gent-lemen routine as usual (lol, it's me Alana writing this, can confirm the episode is chock full of tangents). We can't wait to hear what you think!!  Find pictures of the looks we discussed in this episode on our instagram @dressedtokillpod, and don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comments or a DM! TLDR: Style and Bond from a Feminist point of view.

This week we watched, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999). The AP sequel! We're joined by special guest Sharif Matar! Sharif is a product and software Designer, and old friend from middle and high school. We used to love watching comedies like this with sharif - before they were vintage-, and he has an incredible eye for design.  Millennium era comedies had such a fun lightness to them, that we miss!Mike Meyers is a comedy genius, we just love the Austin Powers series, the quotable lines and cameos still get us cracking up, and we especially love the playful costume design! Thanks Deena Appel!Seeing the play come back into fashion lately (it's about time!) with the redux of y2k era style, feels like perfect timing after years of homebound sweatpants and Zoom-fits. Not to mention, the nostalgia is sugary sweet. Is Fat Bastard too fat shamey? Are we -over- smart female characters playing dumb? Were you also obsessed with Jelly Roll pens?? All this and more in today's episode!We can't wait to hear what you think!!  Find pictures of the looks we discussed in this episode on our instagram @dressedtokillpod, and don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comments or a DM!TLDR: Style and Bond from a Feminist point of view.
