Style Is a Skill: Evolving with Intention with Mili Velikova
Saison 3 · Épisode 4
jeudi 6 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:06:27
What if personal style isn’t something you’re born with but something you can learn, refine, and evolve? In this episode of Style POV, I’m joined by Mili Velikova, a style educator and YouTube creator known for her grounded, analytical, and deeply creative approach to dressing well.
Mili breaks down why “effortless style” is a myth and shows how small tweaks, intentional choices, and curiosity can completely transform the way you show up. We talk about closing the style knowledge gap, editing your closet with purpose, and learning to view style as a reflection of who you’re becoming- not just what you wear.
If you’ve ever felt like your wardrobe doesn’t quite match your identity or you’re craving a more thoughtful approach to fashion, this conversation will inspire you to see getting dressed as both a skill and a form of self-expression.

jeudi 23 octobre 2025 • Durée 43:49
In this episode of Style POV, we sit down with Fatima Ess, founder of Poeticize Your Presence, to explore her signature system that fuses silhouette analysis, custom color palettes, and style energy archetypes into something deeply personal and liberating.

Style Value Levers: Why You Feel Overwhelmed Getting Dressed
Saison 2 · Épisode 11
jeudi 8 mai 2025 • Durée 30:21
In this solo episode, I’m breaking down a concept I come back to again and again with clients: style value levers.
These are the core priorities—comfort, creativity, sustainability, price point, and more—that silently shape our wardrobes. And when we try to push all of them to 100%, we end up overwhelmed, disconnected, and still not loving what we wear.
This episode isn’t just about figuring out what matters to you stylistically. It’s about giving yourself permission to focus on the few values that actually move the needle for you right now.
I’ll share:
What style value levers are and how they subtly guide your choices
Why personal style systems like color analysis or Kibbe sometimes miss the mark
What happened when I embraced my Bright Spring palette and let go of outdated beliefs
A challenge to help you clarify your top 2–3 levers and actually use them while shopping
This one’s for anyone who’s ever stood in front of a full closet and felt like nothing was right—not because it was wrong, but because it wasn’t aligned.
Thanks for listening to Style POV. If this episode resonated, share it with a friend or leave a quick review—it helps others find the show.

Style as Language: The Transformation and Identity behind Fashion with Rachel Hills
Saison 2 · Épisode 10
jeudi 1 mai 2025 • Durée 48:14
In this episode of Style POV, I sit down with journalist Rachel Hills to explore how personal style can be both a tool for self-expression and a form of self-transformation.
You’ve seen Rachel’s work in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Elle, The Sydney Morning Herald, and The New York Times—and in our chat, she shares the early influences that shaped her style and how it’s evolved into something that holds both power and connection.
We dive into her behind-the-scenes experiences at some of fashion’s most iconic shows, her thoughts on the rise of "it girls", and what today’s TikTok-driven trends say about how we dress. Rachel also opens up about navigating the balance between novelty and sustainability, and how AI is beginning to shift the way we think about fashion.
If you’ve ever wondered how the industry insiders see style—or what it looks like to define your look in a fast-moving world—this episode is one to press play on.
Style Files: Eve, Is style for you or for the spectator?
Saison 2 · Épisode 9
jeudi 17 avril 2025 • Durée 42:48
In this episode of The Style POV’s Style Files series, I sit down with Eve to chat about her deeply personal approach to getting dressed—one that centers around her unique words using the three-word method.
Eve walks me through how her style has evolved over the years, blending nostalgia, playfulness, and a totally carefree vibe. From sewing her own clothes to rejecting one-size-fits-all fashion advice, she’s created a wardrobe that feels entirely her own. We talk about her love of vintage, how she shops more sustainably, and the way she uses personal memories to shape what she wears.
We also dig into how her mom shaped her style, what creativity looks like in her day-to-day, and why tuning into yourself is key when defining your look. If you’ve ever felt like fashion should be more meaningful—or just more you—this conversation is full of insight and inspiration.

The Art of Dressing: Diving Into Design, Proportions, and the Power of Fashion
Saison 2 · Épisode 8
jeudi 10 avril 2025 • Durée 24:23
In this solo episode of Style POV, I dive into what really makes an outfit work—from the inside out. I explore the foundations of fashion design, including how structure and detail shape the way clothes function and feel.
We’ll look at body proportions in a more empowering light, and I’ll share how understanding your lines, movement, and rhythm can shift not just how you dress—but how you feel. I also talk about using illusion with intention, dressing to support your emotions, and tapping into the idea of fantasy style—dressing like the version of you you're growing into.
This episode is part design guide, part style therapy, and full of ways to help you reconnect with your clothes and your sense of self.

Style Files: Christina, From Barbiecore to Sewing Class
Saison 2 · Épisode 7
jeudi 27 mars 2025 • Durée 46:36
This episode of Style POV is part of the Style Files segment — where listeners come on the podcast to share their real, evolving style journeys: the wins, the messiness, the growth, and all the surprising turns in between.
Today, I’m chatting with Christina, whose story touches on everything from childhood fashion memories to the Barbie movie’s influence, sewing school adventures, and navigating personal style through shifting body changes and life stressors. It’s thoughtful, creative, and incredibly relatable — especially if you’ve ever felt like your wardrobe was a tornado of clothes and not enough yes-pieces.
A quick note: if you're watching the video version, you’ll notice my footage looks a little different than usual. That’s because my original audio was completely unusable (yes, podcaster panic moment), so I re-recorded my parts afterward. Same questions, same energy, just with a slightly different setup. Thanks for rolling with it.
I think you’ll love Christina’s warmth, curiosity, and the way she’s approaching style as both self-care and creative expression. Let’s get into it.
