Celebrity stylist and creator Maeve Reilly - the brains behind the iconic looks from Hailey Bieber, Megan Fox, and Eva Longoria - joins me on the day her new podcast launches to talk about her career journey, the styling industry, and the most personal styling project of her life: rebuilding her wardrobe after losing everything in the LA wildfires. We get into what a capsule wardrobe means now, the first pieces she replaced, why accessories are everything, and her go-to "three-by-five" method. Plus, we chat the internet's obsession with stylist “breakups,” her favorite under-$300 trousers, why she's still wearing Sambas, and the Kelly she's manifesting (goals).Follow Maeve here https://www.instagram.com/stylememaeve/?hl=en, and listen to her new podcast, The Inside Edit, here https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-inside-edit-podcast/id1832432777Get 20% an annual membership of my new substack Let's Get Dressed here https://letsgetdressed.substack.com/lgdLove the show?

In this inspiring and honest conversation, I'm joined by the fabulous Nicky Hambleton-Jones. She's a personal stylist, TV presenter, author, and the iconic face behind 10 Years Younger and Drop-A-Decade.We go far beyond fashion to talk about confidence, ageing, and how personal style can become a powerful tool for reinvention, especially after 50. Nicky opens up about the highs and lows of her career, including the moment she was dropped from her hit show and how, in her own words, “clothes saved me.”We also dive into her new book, Bolder Not Older, a bold call-to-arms for women to reclaim their visibility, voice, and vibrancy - no matter their age. We discuss the “invisibility issue” so many women feel in midlife, how image isn't just about appearance but about confidence and opportunity, and why there are no rules after 50.Plus, Nicky shares her go-to style tips for colour confidence and the three things every woman over 50 should be doing to look and feel amazing.Whether you're navigating your 40s, 50s, or beyond, get inspired to feel more seen, more stylish, and more confident than ever.

Like probably most of you, my 20s was a wild roller coaster of unhinged fashion choices. I kicked off my 20s Gossip Girl style - wearing peplum skirts and heels to my classes at NYU (in 40 degree weather, mind you). I entered my mid-20s as a sneakerhead with a collection that should have probably landed me somewhere on Complex, and then also survived pandemic fashion. Now at 30, my focus is laser sharp on investing in pieces that will last a lifetime and I feel more like myself than ever. In today's episode, I talk through the most impactful style learnings from my last decade that are helping me thrive in this new one. Love the show? Follow us and leave a review!

Our conversation took a transformative turn with a guest whose journey of resilience and courage inspired us all. She opened up about the emotional turmoil of facing infidelity and the remarkable strength it took to rebuild her marriage and career. Her story resonates as a beacon of hope and support. We also touched on the exciting project of bringing her narrative to life through film, and shared some personal insights on overcoming travel anxiety, finding joy in new experiences, and the thrill of rediscovering personal style, especially when styled for Wimbledon by the fabulous Kimberly Bennett. Throughout our heartfelt discussion, the importance of carving out protected time for personal well-being became clear.

Shahdana is an international belly dancer from Argentina whose artistic journey began not with dance, but with music—studying piano and musical composition for nearly two decades, including performing in a tango orchestra. Her deep connection to music later found a new expression in belly dance, where Arabic rhythms became her primary focus. But it was a moment of emotional clarity—dancing to Piazzolla's tango and breaking into tears—that reminded her to honor her roots. That decision to merge tango with belly dance not only defined her unique style but opened international doors, beginning with her first overseas performance in Korea. Today, Shahdana is celebrated for her emotional depth, musicality, and distinctive fusion of tango and belly dance, teaching and performing around the world.In this episode you will learn about:- Late start is not a barrier to build a belly dance career- How setting a 7-year goal helped Shahdana stay focused through years of rejection.- The role of intuition and networking in building a dance career.- Why she emphasizes interpreting tango with authenticity rather than mimicking tango dancers.- How to develop a unique style through consistent improvisation and personal storytelling.Show Notes to this episode:Find Shahdana on Instagram, and YouTube.Details and training materials for the BDE castings are available at www.JoinBDE.comCheck Earn What You Deserve Training for belly dance teachers at www.sharqui.com/social.Follow Iana on Instagram, FB, and Youtube .

What ​doors ​are ​you ​not  ​just ​knocking ​on?” - Monique R. Shields“Because ​​I ​work so ​collaboratively, ​I'm ​often ​working ​with ​different ​groups ​of ​people. ​And ​because ​the ​work ​requires ​your ​expertise ​and ​your ​expertise ​and your ​experience ​and ​your ​experience ​and ​your ​experience, I ​think ​that ​it further ​helps ​me ​to ​develop ​the ​muscle ​​when ​it ​comes ​to ​leaning ​on ​others ​for ​what I ​don't ​know. It's ​not ​indicative ​of ​weakness ​or ​lack ​of ​ability ​or ​​really ​anything. ​What ​it's ​indicative ​of ​is ​curiosity.” - Pamela Shepard“One ​way ​that ​you ​signal ​to ​yourself and ​to ​the ​world ​that ​you ​take ​yourself ​seriously ​is ​by ​asking ​for ​help, ​​by ​actually ​leveraging ​the ​relationships ​that ​you ​have ​poured ​into. ​And ​it ​doesn't ​take ​that ​many. ​You ​don't ​have ​to ​know ​the ​world. ​You ​start ​with ​who ​you ​know, ​and ​then ​you, again, ​you ​don't ​know ​who ​they ​know and ​who ​those ​people ​know.” - Monique R. Shields“If I were talking to someone about fashion, I ​think ​my ​first ​question would ​be, ​​where ​do ​you ​spend ​most ​of ​your ​time? Is ​it ​in ​an ​office? ​Is ​it ​at ​home? ​Is ​it  ​in ​transit ​and ​traveling? ​Like, ​what ​does ​the ​look ​of ​your ​life ​look ​like? ​Because ​​I ​think ​that ​sometimes ​we ​feel compelled ​to ​have ​all ​the ​things.

In this episode of Let's Get Dressed, we step inside the One/Of Upper East Side atelier, where Patricia Voto is redefining what it means to design with purpose and challenging the standards of the fashion industry.

Would you be surprised to hear that your favorite shoe brand is neither family-owned nor as punk as it portrays itself to be?Did you know that wealth inequality and shoes are directly connected? Could your latest shoe purchase be subsidizing lobbying efforts to fight a rise in the minimum wage or reduce taxes for the wealthiest people?Amanda is joined by Ariel, the founder of Cobbled Goods to talk about how shoes, wealth inequality, and politics are entangled.  He will introduce us to his Billionaire Boycott List.  In this episode, we will also cover the following topics:The environmental and ethical impacts of shoe productionCommon greenwashing tropes used by the shoe industryWho really owns a lot of the shoe companies that we might think of "heritage" brands or "countercultural"How you can make better decisions when shopping for a new pair of shoesAnd how where, when, and how often you shop are political decisions!And guess what? Ariel has a reading list for you:Wealth Supremacy: How the Extractive Economy and the Biased Rules of Capitalism Drive Today's CrisesOne of my favourite books, written by Marjorie Kelly. She really has her finger on the heart of the issue. I'd recommend listeners start by checking out her podcast interviews. I also have to add my first encounter with her work, which rocked my world — The Architecture of Enterprise: Redesigning Ownership for a Great Transition.Foot Work: What Your Shoes Tell You About GlobalisationAn incredible first-person look into shoe production around the world. Tansy Hoskins also has a great newsletter.Imagining a Decentralised Footwear Industry at the Global Fashioning AssemblyI didn't mention this but I hosted a speculative fiction workshop last fall with Tansy and few other footwear founders where everyone shared their ideas on what the industry would look like in a world with big businesses. It ties in nicely with our conversation and the boycott list.Dispatches: The truth about Nike and AdidasThe Channel 4 investigation into recycled ocean plastic. I actually confused Nike and Adidas on the episode. Both brands are covered but the ocean plastic bit was about Adidas. The original broadcast is not available on demand: But there is an article with part of the video here: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10821693/Channel-4s-Dispatches-reveals-greenwashing-trainer-brands.html License to Greenwash: How certification schemes and voluntary initiatives are fueling fossil fashionA very compelling report on greenwashing through certifications and standards. I alluded to it a bit with the HIGG index, but I meant to dive deeper because it is highly prevalent.Money Heist: COVID-19 Wage Theft in Global Garment Supply ChainsA report on how big brands dodge accountability to the workers making their products. It gives estimates on how many millions of dollars different brands owe the workers that were laid off without severance due to their cancelled orders during Covid.Nowhere to Hide: How the Fashion Industry Is Linked to Amazon Rainforest DestructionA thorough report mapping out leather supply chains connected to Amazon deforestation.ALSO: get your tickets for Clotheshorse LIVE!10/23  Seattle, WA @ Here-After10/26  Portland, OR @ HoloceneGet your Clotheshorse merch here: https://clotheshorsepodcast.com/shop/If you want to share your opinion/additional thoughts on the subjects we cover in each episode, feel free to email, whether it's a typed out message or an audio recording:  amanda@clotheshorse.worldDid you enjoy this episode?

Not the lighting (okay, maybe a little), but what actually happens inside—the habits, the hang-ups, the helpful tips, and the unspoken rules that no one teaches you.In this episode, we're pulling together insights from both sides of the dressing room door. You'll hear what sales associates wish shoppers would stop doing, what most of us are guilty of (yep, even stylists), and the five key things I teach clients to make the fitting room a more empowering experience.Because trying clothes on shouldn't feel like a test—it should feel like a tool for discovery.

This week you are going to meet Molly and Jane of Content Queen, a two-person Bay Area-based zine publisher. And we are going to talk about all kinds of very hot topics (including literally Hot Topic):Why do Jane and Molly make physical zines rather than virtual/online content in 2025? The answer is important and might get you thinking…How has the kind of “content” we consume (especially the content we READ) changed in the social media era?Two of Content Queen's zines that are explicitly fashion-related:  Stressful, Awkward, Envied: ‘90s and ‘00s Brands From Those Who Wore the Clothes, Worked the Registers, and Modeled for the Catalogs AND Wendy's World, “an immersion into the early-'90s downtown New York world of the ultimate cult indie fashion label, Built by Wendy.”Along the way Molly and Jane will tell us what it's like to vend at a zine fair in 2025 (and why it's different than it used to be).  And we'll wrap it all up by making our trend predictions.  Amanda gets things started with explaining why something as simple as reading is a radical act of resistance in 2025 (and why we need to protect books and libraries).Go order and read Molly and Jane's zines so we can talk about them: contentqueenzine.comFind them on IG: @contentqueenzineJOIN AMANDA FOR THE CLOTHESHORSE BIRTHDAY CRAFTERNOON ON JULY 20!Additional reading:"It's so boring': Gen Z parents don't like reading to their kids - and educators are worried," Alaina Demopoulos, The Guardian."The Elite College Students Who Can't Read Books," Rose Horowitch, The Atlantic.Banned and Challenged Books dashboard, American Library Association.Get your Clotheshorse merch here: https://clotheshorsepodcast.com/shop/If you want to share your opinion/additional thoughts on the subjects we cover in each episode, feel free to email, whether it's a typed out message or an audio recording:  amanda@clotheshorse.worldDid you enjoy this episode?
