This week in the final episode of Season 2, I chat to the Scarlett Curtis. To me Scarlett is a fashion icon and is always a ray of sunlight, we have a very honest chat about mental health and how she uses fashion to improve her mood and brighten her day, which I think we could all learn from.

This week I chat  to comedy legend Jo Brand.  Along with some giggles, they talk about dressing for larger sizes, trying not to be attractive to men and how funny it is that the people who care least about ‘fashion’ often have the most to say about clothes.

This week I chat to my sister, Jane. Jane is ultimately my favourite person to talk about clothes. We talk about her gardening wardrobe, our Aunties iconic pieces and moths that chew holes that expose your private parts.

This week's episode is with writer and showrunner, Courtney Kemp.  Courtney is one of TV's true superheroes. She created the show Power on Starz and is the ultimate Power Woman in a very male-driven industry. I loved chatting to Courtney about how men see red and how she wears green and pink to represent her involvement with the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority.  I learned a lot from this chat, and you will to. She is BRILLIANT, enjoy!
