In 2009, Alyssa Wasko starting making scarves in her college dorm room to cope with the death of her father, Donald. The scarves were shared with colleges around the country, uniting Alyssa with a community of people who also found solace in her creativity and would  later become the community behind DONNI. 13 years later, DONNI, is on every fashion girl’s favorites list for elevated essentials - your favorite pair of chino’s with a tortoise button, a scrunchie for every day, or a waffle set that’s almost impossible to take off. The brand has landed her a spot on Forbes 30 under 30 list, and is now sold around the country with retailers like Shopbop and Neiman Marcus. In this episode, Alyssa and I talk about vulnerability as an entrepreneur, the key to a slow burn, and why she’s betting on live shopping for the future.    Shop Donni here https://shopdonni.com   Love the show?

Jenna Lyons is nothing short of an icon. Fun fact, she’s actually the reason I got into fashion. From a young age, I was obsessed with her perspective on personal style. It was a blend of highs and lows - a Schiaparelli skirt with a button down top, or a feather skirt paired with denim - that defied what was the fashion “norm” and made you feel like hey, anything goes. It’s that ethos that has been the foundation of the way I dress and what I try to share through my platforms. If you love it, wear it. Take up all the space. So needless to say, this was a bucket list moment. Jenna is one of the most recognizable faces in fashion. She started at J. Crew as an assistant and blazed her way through to the top, building a 27 year career that made her the face of the brand and dubbed the “woman who dressed America” by the New York Times. Since leaving J. Crew, she’s founded LoveSeen, an eyelash extension company, and is about to grace our television screens as a newly announced member of the next season of The Real Housewives of New York City. In this episode, I talk Jenna about redefining beauty, her thoughts on the fashion industry today, and her unexpected new chapter.    Shop LoveSeen here https://loveseen.com   Love the show?
