Alex & Alli are guests on Renata Ellera's Love Better. With Renata, the girls talk taste, fashion, wine and bringing enjoyment into your life.

From Renata's description:

How do you develop taste? How adventurous are you with your fashion choices? Do you know how to pick a bottle of wine you'll enjoy vs. one you'll regret later? I discussed these and other questions with fashion stylist Alex Wakim and wine expert Alli DelGrippo.

We also discussed how to avoid the trap of overconsumption, make mindful choices, and how to add enjoyment to your life through self-expression and by sharing a bottle of wine with your friends. The message is mindfulness and moderation, but if you struggle with addiction or impulse control, you'll want to approach this episode with caution, or maybe skip it altogether. It's totally ok, I'll see you in the next one ;)

Alex and Alli are great friends, and often consult each other on their respective areas of expertise. From these real-life "phone-a-friend" moments emerged the idea of turning their interactions into a podcast about the intersection of fashion and wine. On Taste is now available everywhere you listen to podcasts.

Alexandra is also on Substack with her newsletter, Ten More Minutes.

Plus, hot takes on hosting gifts and determining if Pluto really is a planet (it is). TW: this episode contains mentions of body image and diet culture.
