"When I heard Miyu's recording of cicadas, I was brought back to humid late summers in Japan — where I lived for two years in the mid-aughts — particularly the time around the Obon festival, when, traditionally, the veil between the living and the dead is said to be at its thinnest. "Cicadas, in a synesthetic way to me, are the sound of that veil shaking in a hot breeze, the static cling of the cosmic curtain, and there's a shiver to be savoured hearing them crackle and seethe as you climb the forested steps to the shrine that overlooks your neighborhood and pass through the red torii gate, half-hoping to be transported to some liminal, Twin Peaks by way of Haruki Murakami spirit lodge, but settling contentedly for a choco-banana from a festival vendor before the sweaty walk home." Cicadas in Niigata, Japan reimagined by Casey Broadwater.

New York Bridal Fashion Week just wrapped, and as a 2026 bride myself, I couldn't resist diving into all the fall 2026 wedding dress trends. From the boutonniere bride and boho bell sleeves to bubble hems, cape veils, and the peplum comeback, I'm breaking down the standout looks from designers like Galia Lahav, Oscar de la Renta, Danielle Frankel, and Monique Lhuillier — and deciding which trends feel timeless . . . and which might not make it past the honeymoon.Plus, I share my own bride-to-be dilemma: do I dress for the moment or for forever? And since every Dinner for Shoes episode has a bite, I'm taste-testing a slice of apple pecan crumb cake from Yuki's Bakery in Hoboken (because Nick and I won't be doing a traditional wedding cake, so now's my chance!). Trish even pops in for a sniff.Whether you're planning your own wedding, manifesting one, or just love a good bridal trend report, this episode is your backstage pass to fall 2026 bridal fashion with a side of dessert.THIS DINNERApple cinnamon pecan coffee cake from Yuki's Bakery in Hoboken, NJTHESE SHOESZara Faux Fur Sole Heeled SandalsTHIS OUTFITShop my lookGarage dressLovers and Friends jacketBaubleBar necklaceAstrid & Miyu jewelry setAgapée ring THESE CHAPTERS00:00 INTRO02:54 THE OUTFIT BEHIND THE SHOES06:38 WHAT I LOOK FOR IN A WEDDING DRESS12:44 FALL 2026 WEDDING DRESS TRENDS29:49 WEDDING CAKETHIS PRODUCTIONis created, written, hosted, and produced by Sarah Wasilak.is creative directed and executive produced by Megan Kai.is tech supervised by Nick.includes photos and videos in chronological order by Sarah Wasilak, Suess Moments Photography, Popsugar, Galia Lahav, HILÁ, Ines Di Santo, Markarian, Oscar de la Renta, Viktor&Rolf, Jenny Yoo, Danielle Frankel, Savannah Miller, Monique Lhuillier, Nadia Manjarrez, Elie Saab, CINQ, Honor, KYHA, and LEIN.references charity Brides For a Cause, photographer Miranda Suess, and florist Laura Collins. is made with love.Dinner for Shoes is a fashion podcast for people who love food, hosted by editor Sarah Wasilak.

Astrid & Miyu is an incredible jewellery brand that now has stores all over the world - it's come a long way since founder, Connie Nam, started the business in 2012, in her London flat. Connie created the brand after identifying a gap in the market for jewellery that sat in the 'affordable luxury' area, paired with the warm shopping experience she'd enjoyed when browsing boutiques in Seoul, Korea, where she was born. After spotting this gap, Connie got to work, building up the brand before she wanted to take the next step and get a physical store. For this, investment was needed, which was incredibly hard to come by, but she did and opened four stores pre-pandemic. Since, she has continued to open jewellery shops, piercing and tattoo studios all over the world. What started off as a career in investment banking following an MBA has now morphed into more than the founder of a global brand. Not only is Astrid & Miyu known for its jewellery, it's also known for its eco credentials, giving to charity, and supporting many other small business leaders too. To find out more about Connie and Astrid & Miyu, grab your copy of my new book, You've Got This!

In this episode of International Love Story, Miyu and Sebastian share how an online class discussion led to a lifetime together. What started as a casual conversation about anime and post-Covid travel plans turned into a cross-cultural relationship—complete with hiking in the rain, a surprise proposal under cherry blossoms, and navigating visa paperwork. From long-distance challenges to blending Japanese and American family dynamics, they talk about the realities of building a life together: communication, cultural quirks, and the practical side of love—budgeting, work permits, and future plans.JOIN the SKOOL-Group: Source for Couples in Intercultural Relationships➡️JOIN the Group for Women in Intercultural Relationships:https://chat.whatsapp.com/Fy5IOsGnOoN1D0foex9EBY❤️Tell your Story:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSegfNeCTr9Dv6Wr7RMjctbZDkXtSot5tCBuwdZeR47-PVA77A/viewformGet in Contact with Miyu and Sebastian:InstagramEmail: internationallovestorypodcast@gmail.comLeave a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviewABOUT USYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@internationallovestory Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/internationallovestory/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/internationallovestorypodcast TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@international.love.story00:00 Introduction03:45 Meeting in Person for the First Time08:28 Becoming Official16:44 Engagement and Proposal23:12 Navigating Visa and Wedding Plans30:09 Cultural Differences and Adjustments39:29 Navigating Long-Distance Challenges53:11 Fun Q&A and Cultural Misunderstandings55:09 Outro

By mastering experiential retail, customer connection, and values-driven marketing. From creating immersive brand experiences (think in-store domes that bring the weather in the cities of all major A&M stores to life, as well as in-store piercing, welding & tattoos) to making customers their loudest fans, this episode is packed with actionable strategies to grow through true Advocacy. Here's what's in store: Treating Customers Like VIPs: Sarah reveals how Astrid & Miyu bridges the gap between customer & influencer by offering deeply personal touches to their biggest everyday fans – like handwritten birthday cards and intimate feedback sessions. These gestures do more than build loyalty; they make customers integral to the brand journey. Balancing Emotion & Commerce: Sarah knows how to get a CFO to buy-in on big plans; sharing how she aligns emotional brand-building with measurable KPIs, to prove that investing in experiences (like HOAM) leads to commercial success. It's about playing the long game while delivering short-term wins. CMO Challenges & Insights: From navigating rapid industry changes to balancing agility with long-term strategy, Sarah shares what it takes to lead marketing for a fast-evolving brand. Hint: forgetting the competition is half the work. Stay Ahead Without Losing Your Core: In a sea of fleeting trends, staying true to your mission is the ultimate differentiator. By filtering every innovation through their 3 intrinsic values, Astrid & Miyu has built a brand that evolves without compromising its identity. You can, too. Turn this episode up & take notes.

In this episode of Under the Onion Skin, I am chatting with Loïc Espuche about his film "Beurk"."Beurk" by Loïc Espuche2D animation, 13 min, 2023 // FranceSynopsis “Yuck! Couples kissing on the mouth are gross. And the worst is, you can't miss them: when people are about to kiss, their lips become all pink and shiny. Little Léo laughs at them, just like all the kids at the summer camp. But he has a secret he won't tell his friends: his own mouth has actually begun glistening. And, in reality, Léo desperately wants to give kissing a try.”Find out more: https://www.instagram.com/loic_espuche/https://vimeo.com/loicespuchehttps://www.kisskissbankbank.com/fr/projects/amenez-le-court-metrage-beurk-a-hollywoodUnder the Onion Skin: https://giuliamartinelli.com/podcastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/giuliamartinelliIntro Music: "Backoning" by Telecasted from Youtube Audio Library

On this spoopy episode, join Ed, Kate, and Dennis as we discuss the 1988 OVA series Vampire Princess Miyu. There's different vampire rules here than we're used to seeing. Though none of the standard weaknesses apply, Miyu's unaging is typical but granting eternal life is new. There's exorcisms, creepy dolls, not-Alphonse Elric, double sad backstory, and Himiko doesn't even need a warrant for any info. 0:00:00 - Intro & The Watchlist 0:18:10 - Some Anime News 0:30:33 - Production Notes 0:38:16 - EP1 - Unearthly Kyoto 1:00:26 - EP2 - A Banquet of Marionettes 1:17:03 - EP3 - Fragile Armor 1:34:00 - EP4 - Frozen Time 1:48:19 - Voices, Final Thoughts, & Kanpai Support the show by donating to our Ko-Fi link below or by purchasing Vampire Princess Miyu on DVD through our Amazon affiliate links.
