In Dinner for Shoes episode 32, Pizza Pies + Marrying the Kais, podcast host Sarah Wasilak talks through the wedding outfits her sister Rachel and Dinner for Shoes producer Megan wore for their Charleston nuptials. While Rachel chose three different looks — a custom sage green three-piece suit from Indochino, an ASTR The Label tuxedo romper, and SuitShop co-ords — Megan opted for a V. Chapman gown from Anthropologie. Sarah talks through the process of designing a bespoke suit with Indochino as well as some of the highlights of shopping at Anthropologie for a wedding dress as a bride-to-be.

She talks to Special Guest Nicole Wegman, founder of Ring Concierge, about engagement rings and bridal jewelry becoming increasingly popular and expected to remain prominent bestsellers for the brand. Nicole’s go-to meal is sushi, so Sarah opts for a sweetheart roll (how romantic?) from Avocado Sushi in Hoboken, NJ, which she can only eat once she retrieves the missing chopstick back from the always-mischievous Kit the Kitten.

| 06 Dec 2023 | Hair Identity & Fashion: How My Blonde Hair Disaster Inspired New Style Icons | 00:39:57 | |
Dinner for Shoes is a podcast hosted by Sarah Wasilak, a fashion and food enthusiast with her mouth full. With appearances by her cats, Trish and Kit, and agendas that almost always go to shit, we aim to dive into a discussion about fashion and style and break some bread in each episode. In episode 11, Bagels + Botched Hair, Sarah details her tumultuous blonde journey that culminated when she was double processed at a salon, completely stripping away her pigment and compromising the quality of her hair. She explains how the traumatic event opened her eyes to the way in which we retain our identity through our hair, as well as how challenging it must be to work as a hairstylist. Sarah enjoys her go-to bagel order from Murray’s, which is her most trusted NYC spot. She connects this back to the way in which we trust our hairstylists, expecting them to continually deliver quality, familiarity, and comfort. Of course, Trish and Kit are curious about Sarah’s eccentric bagel combination — but maybe that’s just because they can sense how relieved she is to bite into a bagel that finally meets her standards. It’s clear she feels similarly about her new bob, which is inspiring her to construct outfits inspired by some of her favorite short hair fashion icons.

Dinner for Shoes is a podcast hosted by Sarah Wasilak, a fashion and food enthusiast with her mouth full. With appearances by her cats, Trish and Kit, and agendas that almost always go to shit, we aim to dive into a discussion about fashion and style and break some bread in each episode. In episode 12, Hot Chocolate + Holiday Parties, Sarah discusses her personal rules and tips for holiday dressing, while also recommending some outfit ideas for the season, as seen on Instagram. Sarah tests out three different hot chocolate beverages from Dunkin’, Starbucks, and Hidden Grounds, ultimately choosing a favorite with her eyes closed. (Spoiler: she’s very surprised by the results!) Finally, Sarah introduces her dinner guests to “the guys,” aka the animatronic Christmas plush characters that her family’s been collecting for years. Together, they all sing their unique carols, bringing all the more cheer to the holiday gathering. Dinner for Shoes podcast episodes are released weekly on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple.

In Dinner for Shoes episode 26, Lauren Chan on Body Inclusive Fashion + Self Discovery, podcast host Sarah Wasilak is joined by Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, mental health advocate, and Henning CEO Lauren Chan. Lauren recently used her Sports Illustrated feature to come out and open up a personal conversation about exploring her sexuality and defining her identity. Sarah and Lauren discuss breaking into the fashion industry, dressing for the male gaze vs. dressing for the female gaze, embracing a style evolution, and, of course, the Henning x Universal Standard collection, which comes at an accessible price point in sizes 4XS-4XL (00-40). Before heading into the conversation about plus size fashion and representation, Sarah tests out a universally beloved product that she’s never tried, Trader Joe’s Speculoos Cookie Butter.

Dinner for Shoes is a podcast hosted by Sarah Wasilak, a fashion and food enthusiast with her mouth full. With appearances by her cats, Trish and Kit, and agendas that almost always go to shit, we aim to dive into a discussion about fashion and style and break some bread in each episode. In episode 13, Candied Nuts + New Year’s Eve, Sarah asks her dinner guests to choose her look for New Year’s Eve by modeling three different outfit options, breaking down the designer details, and describing how she feels in the clothes. Because she’ll be going out in New York (and that also happens to be where the ball drops), she presents her own spin on “Nuts 4 Nuts,” a classic street corner snack that is quintessentially NYC. Sarah’s own recipe for candied nuts has become a popular crowd pleaser among friends and family, so she divulges her secret for whipping up a batch that wins everyone over at the party. Make sure you vote for the outfit you think Sarah should wear on New Year’s Eve in the comments, or participate in one of the @dinnerforshoes Instagram polls!

Sarah and Kevin chat about what goes into creating a viral social media video that serves style and opinion, and Kevin shares his favorite-ever performance costume. Sarah enjoys a big carton of noodles from Honeygrow, partly because noodles are bendy like Kevin’s acrobatic tricks, but also because she’s stressed about Trish and Kit tearing down the living room curtains on camera.

| 21 Nov 2023 | Thanksgiving Outfits: Styling Tips + Why It’s Not My Favorite Holiday | 00:28:27 | |
Dinner for Shoes is a podcast hosted by Sarah Wasilak, a fashion and food enthusiast with her mouth full. With appearances by her cats, Trish and Kit, and agendas that almost always go to shit, we aim to dive into a discussion about fashion and style and break some bread in each episode. In episode nine, Turkey Truths + Thanksgiving Outfits, Sarah happily doles out advice for what to wear on Thanksgiving, but also acknowledges the fact that it’s simply not her favorite holiday. Because of the disappointing history behind Thanksgiving, as well as the traditional dishes that we eat (which Sarah feels are foods in their worst form), it is simply not up to par with the other Hallmark holidays — at least in the Dinner for Shoes book. However, she makes light of the situation by putting her own spin on a turkey takeout order, styling a fitting look inspired by Halle Bailey, and sharing some fashion content from Thanksgivings past.

In Dinner for Shoes episode 37, The Wedding Guest Dress of My Dreams, Sarah talks about the Cult Gaia Enid dress she bought on Black Friday years ago, and is finally getting to wear to a wedding in Hydra, Greece. Working with Alteration Specialists Tailor Shop Manager Yaser Elsafty, Sarah transformed the gown to better fit her height and stripped away inches of fabric so that the dress’s cape can be tied back for warmer weather. In addition to Cult Gaia, Sarah depends on many different brands for summer wedding looks, including Rhode — the label behind the chili red dress she’s wearing. She chats through her top recommendations, enjoys a plethora of dishes you might find on a classic wedding menu from Little Beet, and attempts to calm the cats when they deem themselves wedding crashers and tumble into the reception.

| 22 Oct 2023 | Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce: Couple Style, Football & the Tayvis Phenomenon | 00:32:20 | |
Dinner for Shoes is a podcast by Sarah Wasilak, a fashion and food enthusiast with her mouth full. With appearances by her cats, Trish and Kit, and agendas that almost always go to shit, we aim to dive into a discussion about style and break some bread in each episode. In episode four, Sundae Funday + Swift Szn, Sarah breaks down the phenomenon that is Tayvis, aka Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship and its impact on football, Sunday Funday, and her own personal stress levels. For dinner, Sarah designates three different ice cream brands as “teams,” choosing flavors that get a lot of hype, and ultimately deciding which one comes out on top. Kit also gets a taste of the ice cream sundae, but does not get to choose a winner. Finally, Sarah determines whether or not Swift and Kelce should continue to make style references to one another when they’re off-duty, based on her research and knowledge about the fashion brands they often wear.

Their conversation touches on the important work Lara does with pet adoption agencies, Charlie’s media appearances and runway shows, and, of course, dog fashion — which is a foray into some of the adorable pet fashion brands and accounts Sarah recently discovered in her Instagram hole.

She also explains how she chose her outfits for Fashion Week this season, curating photos of celebrity and influencer looks she liked, then tweaking them to fit her own sense of style. Sarah sips on an Apple Crisp Oatmilk Frappuccino from Starbucks, which is not necessarily the best dinner she’s ever tried for the pod — although that’s probably because it doesn’t qualify as dinner.

Sarah also introduces her guests to the new set of Dinner for Shoes while in the midst of the move, pinpointing objects in view that she transitioned into the new space (including Kit The Kitten, who makes her cameo at just the right time). While she hasn’t been a smoothie lover historically, Sarah tries out the Diet Starts Today from Acai Ya Later in Hoboken, as it appears to be both a literal detox recipe and a figurative “Acai ya later” to her apartment in Jersey City.
