Special Edition: Holiday Outfits!

Thought I forgot about you? I wouldn’t dream of it. I took a bit of a break, and now I’m back and asking for your help. The holidays are quickly approaching, which means parties and dinners and social gatherings, which, for me, mean one thing: outfits. This got me thinking, “That would make a great listener write-in episode”, and here we are!

If you haven’t guessed yet, I’m asking you to send me your holiday outfit stories. They can be past, present, future; funny, victorious, heartfelt, childhood memories — all of it! Send me all of your stories (and maybe some photos too) and I’ll put it all together in A Very Special Episode that will air around the holidays.

You can send me messages directly through the site (go to the Contact page), or email messages or audio files to talkclothes@gmail.com, or DM me on instagram @talkclothespodcast. I cannot wait to hear from you, and to read your stories!

Here are some of my past holiday card photos to get the ball rolling:

Thanks for stopping by — now go send me some stories!
