Description
This week we are back to work in New York City, and we are killing it! Get the insider’s scoop on our lives as stylists - shopping for clients, shopping for ourselves, tracking down the latest fashion trends, and getting hype when we find killer deals or get free stuff. Nolan has been a Lady-About-Town all week, pimping out Holly’s dog, Schmutz (our show mascot) for modeling gigs, shopping for clients, shopping for Holly, cashin' checks and snappin' necks....I mean I'm just sayin. Because the life a professional stylist is hard, people! And it requires drinks. Nolan has also been on a bit of an emotional roller coaster – trying NOT to jump into on-coming traffic, but enough about that... Our Stylists Extraordinaire drag us all over town, recounting some of their most ridiculous shopping adventures – from Bergdorf's with Schmutz, to Nolan’s fav-o-rite store Frame Clothing, to in-person VIP events at DVF and Alexander McQueen. Nolan even has a “Sex In the City-esque" moment with a dress! OMG OMG OMG. The news from The City is that people are out and about, and they are WEARING CLOTHES! Nolan is like a kid in a candy shop walking around the Upper East Side, ogling outfits. Holly finds stuff she LOVES window-shopping, and Nolan is not always impressed with her choices, which, of course, he says out loud. Have you ever heard two stylists trash-talk? It’s subtle, but it is there, girlfriend! Our two favorite stylists (and the only stylists you need to know) stumble upon the School of Visual Arts Student NYC x Design Windows Exhibition featuring shoes made of everyday items like Chinese food take-out containers, puzzle pieces and even bubble tea. Nolan was not impressed with the idea of shoes that might have held last night’s Lo Mein...NEXT. LEVEL. YALL. Just so you know, some stores in NYC are still being plagued by shortages, so GET READY TO WAIT for items to arrive, and don’t be surprised to see empty shelves. Holly and her husband Jonathan head out to the Hamptons where they proceed to over-serve themselves in the shopping department. Holly has all sorts of excuses, but basically, the shopping out there is TO. DIE. Period. Although, Holly was tempted by a rubber chicken purse for a certain client (long story), and Nolan nearly had a heart attack on the spot. Join us this week for an insider’s view of the highs, and certainly some lows, of shopping like pro stylists. It’s super glamorous until it’s not. IN THIS EPISODE: [00:12] Holly “We are the best friends that you never knew that you needed. We are the industry insiders and fashions odd couple. In both of our everyday lives and industry events, we see the best and unfortunately the worst in clothing and style. We are fashion partners in crime dedicated to stopping the most heinous of all fashion crimes on the street and runways and beyond.” [01:25] Holly “Hello!! We are in New York City. We're killing it. Nolan is killing it. Just wanted to give you an update on our latest adventures. I've been in town for 24 hours. Nolan has been taking care of Schmutz in New York, which has been amazing. They've had lots of adventures. He said nobody would leave them alone in Bergdorf's. We've had a great time.” [02:26] Holly “I was shopping for my client, and then Nolan was shopping for me. It was a little awkward. But I was like, this is my stylist, but I'm a stylist, too. And I'm shopping for someone else. As Nolan says, it's a very unhealthy codependent relationship. So drinking is involved.” [04:14] Nolan “So, we needed a dog. And I said, “Well, why don't we use Schmutz?” And my boss was like, “Oh my God! Yes!” And so this morning I sent it in a picture of Schmutz. And when I looked at the call sheet when I got to the office, there was Schmutz's picture! So it's like, three supermodels and their names and their measurements and like all their stuff, and then Schmutz’s picture is underneath the models. I mean, is a little hilarious.” [07:02] Nolan “Yeah, so we were suppos
