Welcome to 2025! Classic & Curious kicks off the new year with a special episode featuring host Anne and her daughter Abby. Together, they share their favorite trends, brands, and practical tips for the year ahead in what we’re calling the "Currently Loving Episode."

Anne brings her 25 years of experience in fashion retail and interior design consultancy, while Abby adds a fresh perspective as a savvy 25-year-old working in the design field. The result? A thoughtful and engaging conversation you won’t want to miss.

This episode is a small detour from our usual guest-driven format. Regularly scheduled interviews return in early February, but for now, enjoy this unique peek behind the curtain at the personal inspirations of the Classic & Curious host.

Certainly these girls do not claim to be influencers, but we think you will find what they have to say “new and noteworthy!”

In this episode, Anne and Abby discuss:

• Their travel must-haves for hotels and their go-to packing cube brands
• Top 2-3 essentials for entertaining in style
• Favorite culinary tools and baking inspirations
• Fashion trends and brands they’re loving for 2025
• What’s trending in interior design and how people are reimagining their homes this year
