Who was the first person you learned about style from? It was likely your mother, grandmother, or another mother figure in your life. In today’s special Nat Chat episode, we talk about what we learned and carry with us about fashion and style from the mother figures in our lives, including my amazing mom, Jan. It may surprise you that she wasn’t into fashion, but she still taught me important lessons on personal style that remain core to my practice today.
Bonus: Tune in to hear a few stories from a surprise guest, who happens to be my actual favorite!--

About a year ago, my friend Faith and I walked into Nomasei's Paris showroom and met its founders, Marine and Paule. What was supposed to be an hour-long appointment between strangers turned into two hours-plus that felt like old friends catching up—and that’s what my Nomasei experience holistically has been since that day. Marine and Paule left the security of big fashion houses to create a brand that they believed could be better for their customers’ comfort needs, the planet, their lifestyles, and more. It was a privilege to sit down with Marine in this conversation to learn more about business development, production insights, the brand’s core values, what’s going on in the fashion industry, and so much more!

You may not think that Fashion Week applies to you, but it does. Remember how Miranda Priestley (played by Meryl Streep) curtly schools us on the subject of “cerulean” in The Devil Wears Prada? In today’s episode, my guest, Sadia Seymour, and I more warmly and gently invite you to come with us for a peek behind the fashion world curtain. Sadia is a Fashion Stylist with 20+ years of experience, and I’m also lucky to call her a friend. In this conversation, we’ll take a behind-the-scenes look at fashion styling and fashion shows. Fresh off of working backstage at NY Fashion Week, Sadia gives us a trend report from the latest season and shares her tips on integrating trends into your existing wardrobe as well as which trends she is most excited about for fall. There’s A LOT of information out there, and Sadia’s cutting through it all to give you the “need to know” intel that you can use for your own style strategy.
Episodes Resources & Notes:
—Follow Sadia online on Instagram @sadiaseymour and @behindtherackny; or visit her websites www.sadiaseymour.com and www.behindtherackny.com
—Check out one of Sadia’s favorite brands Ulla Johnson
—Add Topstick to your personal styling tools (Hint: it’s MUCH more effective than the “fashion tapes” you find in most stores)--

My high school pre-Calculus teacher used to say, “How do you spell ‘math’? F-U-N!” I always vehemently disagreed until I learned about the ‘cost-per-wear formula’! Cost per wear is a calculation I use before I buy anything and another tool I use with my clients as we consider what investing in their wardrobe should look like. In today’s Style School episode, I walk you through what the cost-per-wear formula is and how to use it to inform your own shopping decisions.

It’s a special Valentine’s Day episode with a client I love dearly, Mystral Echavarria. I will never forget the day that Mystral called me inquiring about working together. Her energy, curiosity, kindness, and strength radiated through the phone — and then when I got into a room with her . . . woah! She shines bright! I often feel like I leave our sessions learning more from her than maybe she did me. As a Somatic Energy Worker and Embodiment & Magnetism Coach, Mystral pieces together all that is in her jam-packed, book smart head and hugely loving heart to provide a space and path for her clients to experience radical self-acceptance and self-love as they learn to heal from past traumas and step into lives of pleasure, joy, and respect. Among many things, this conversation explores the beauty and satisfaction that comes with bringing our full selves —inside and out — into all aspects of our multifaceted lives.

In this Nat Chat, we delve into the world of styling and self-expression through your wardrobe choices. I believe strongly in buying better and buying less. Each piece in your closet should have multiple ways to wear it—and each way can be a tool in showcasing all the dimensions of your unique style brand. Knowing how to maximize the use of your clothing and aligning it with your unique personality is such a useful, empowering, not to mention time-and-cost-saving practice.
I encourage you to experiment with outfit combinations like a chef does with ingredients. To help you out, I address common challenges in styling and provide practical tips to make the process easier. This is my ultimate favorite part of my client process. I hope this episode helps you find inspiration and excitement in your closet!

Founder of the brand GRAMMAR, Althea Simons is about as heart-centric and people-driven as designers come—not to mention she shares my love for editing in all forms, including defending the Oxford comma. Inspired by The Elements of Style by William Strunk, Jr. & E.B. White., GRAMMAR creates foundational elements of a modern minimalist wardrobe.
Among many things, we talk about how she is solving the “perfect white shirt” dilemma for all shapes & style personalities, the notion of collaboration over competition within the industry, and why producing ethically and locally was the obvious choice for her.

It’s no secret that the state of shopping has vastly changed in the past decade. On top of it, the pandemic accelerated e-commerce growth, with online sales in the United States increasing by 44% in 2020 (census.gov). Whether I like the new direction of shopping, I have to participate in it. I might as well take advantage of the best parts of each shopping experience and pass on my strategies to you.
In today’s Nat Chat, we discuss the vast world of online shopping: the current climate, the pros and cons, and my advice on how to make it less overwhelming and more focused to fit your needs.--

Going back to work after maternity leave is a tough transition in and of itself. Add to that the logistical challenges for moms who are pumping. Today’s guest is Molly McKee-Seabrook, who founded Katie Jane Co—a clothing line of workwear for pumping moms—after she found herself with nothing professional to wear when she returned to her government office job after maternity leave. Having worked in public policy for more than a decade, Molly has advocated for paid parental leave and other policies that improve the quality of life for new parents and her pumping dresses are one more way to help make sure moms feel empowered and comfortable when they go back to work after having a baby. In today’s episode, we discuss post-maternity style, your legal rights for pumping in the office, and more.
