Dinner for Shoes

Fashion Meets Social Action: Jewelry Brands Supporting Voter Initiatives


Listen Later

In Dinner for Shoes episode 47, VOTE + Avocado Toast, host Sarah Wasilak welcomes Sophie Flack, founder of jewelry lines Semper Augustus and Mad Fine, as Special Guest. Sarah wears Mad Fine’s Vote Nameplate Necklace and Voter Cubic Zirconia Hairpin, which support Run For Something Civics thanks to Sophie’s dedication to giving back to important causes. During the guest interview, Sophie and Sarah discuss the ways Semper Augustus and Mad Fine aim to shed light on timely social causes and spark conversation about mental health. Sarah also shares the voting merch she’s been loving from brands that are donating to voting initiatives and organizations. Finally, she dives into a loaded avocado toast — Sophie’s favorite dish — prepared on-screen to show the ease of whipping up your own meal. In the same amount of time, you could have checked your voting status, registered to vote, or submitted a mail-in ballot application.
