This is how to be a better humon. I'm your host, chrisdo. For several years of my childhood, my go to outfit was an orange mock turtle neck,. tight black sweat pants and a little black barret. i am not the person you should be asking for fashion advice or style advice of any kind. You do not want your tips from me. And partly, partly that is because i'm color blink so if you ask me, do these colors clash? But it's also that i'm intimidated by the whole world of design. Here i get to talk to these incredible experts from the ted universe who do have answers.
