How To Look 'Effortlessly Chic' & WTF Is BoreCore??

About this episode

Tam and Lucinda discuss the shift in fashion trends, including the rise of Borecore and how to elevate affordable pieces.

This week, Tam and Lucinda are diving deep into the shift happening in our wardrobes, starting with the dramatic "death" of logomania. Are we officially done with visual signposting, or are fakes just making luxury look a little too accessible? They break down the rise of "Borecore" and the "West Village Girl" aesthetic championed by style icons like Zoe Kravitz and Jennifer Lawrence. Plus, the girls share their golden rules for making affordable pieces look incredibly elevated (hint: it's all in the buttons and tailoring). And stick around for Bougie to Budget, where Lucinda introduces the asymmetric overlay pants you need for winter, and Tam brings her ultimate list of Western-inspired denim with a subtle edge.
