Welcome to Pop Fashion podcast! This week in hot topics - Nordstrom (allegedly) forgot to tell people they have an aviation department. At the same time, J.Crew's golden child, Madewell, is signing up to be part of the Nordstrom empire. In other news, Stitch Fix is an example of a rapidly growing fashion company that has developed a new mode of shopping. Also, Nike is going after three former employees. Is this a case of a corporation going after the little guy, or three designers playing cat and mouse? The Wall Street Journal penned an article about flats vs heels - are flats now acceptable as a stylish staple? Finally, South By South West (SXSW) has become THE annual event for tech & music, but is all that free swag really free? Or, do you have to sell yourself to get into the great parties? Come hang out!

Welcome to another edition of Pop Fashion podcast! This week in hot topics - an Indonesian football team has sexist tags in their jerseys, a Vogue staffer gets in hot water over an Instagram photo, and American Apparel has a conundrum involving free speech and labor rights. (Sheesh!) In other news, Lisa will tell you how to buy a wardrobe that looks exactly the one worn by your favorite television character (i.e. Claire Underwood in House of Cards). Also, Kim Jong Un has a new haircut and we might have an opinion about it. (Surprised?) Our main topic is about networking. Hate networking? That's okay, we do too. We will tell you some hints, tips, and lessons we have learned in the wild, wild world of meeting strangers for business purposes. Come hang out!

Welcome to another edition of Pop Fashion podcast! This week in hot topics - Lupita Nyong'o's pearl-laden Calvin Klein dress was stolen (and then recovered), Dolce & Gabbana had a hit runway show at Milan Fashion Week, and Gap named a new creative director. In other news, the SEC is seeking information from Alibaba for questionable business practices, and Europe is experiencing an upswing in American / Chinese tourists who want to shop. Our main topic is about clutter. Do we really need to unclutter our homes in order to find joy? Or, is it wiser to make do with the items we have in order to be prepared? Join us as we question how to deal with the "stuff" in our lives - including our clothes.
