From Birkin to Boatkin, this episode Wisdom from the Wardrobe podcast serves up style headlines and shopping dilemmas. The team kicks things off with Hermès news: the original Birkin bag just sold in 10 minutes for $10 million dollars (yes, you read that right). But while fashion royalty makes headlines, LL Bean’s upcycled “Boatkin” tote is sparking debate, is it homage, irony, or straight-up infringement?

Then, we dive headfirst into fall fashion previews and early shopping sales like the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Are these so-called “fall previews” helpful wardrobe planning tools, or do they just trip us up while we’re still sipping iced lattes in linen? The team debates whether stocking up mid-summer is smart strategy or style sabotage.

Tune in for witty banter, fashion hot takes, and a reminder that sometimes the heat of summer makes it hard to think about coats, no matter how chic they are.
