  • Episode 19: Episode Title: Finding Your Style Icon & Building a Capsule Wardrobe That Actually Works
    Aug 5 2025

    In this episode of Style Chat, stylists Sarah Liller and Tami Daylami unpack one of their favorite topics in fashion: style icons—what they are, how to choose one, and how they can help you define your personal style.

    They explore why it’s not just about copying your favorite celebrity, but about finding someone whose vibe, body type, or coloring reflects aspects of your own essence. From Kate Moss to Sienna Miller, Audrey Hepburn to Serena van der Woodsen, Sarah and Tami break down the common threads of iconic style and how to borrow what works (and leave the rest).

    You’ll learn:

    • How to identify your style icon(s) and why it’s okay to have more than one.

    • Why body type, facial features, and even hair texture can influence what style inspiration works best for you.

    • The real secret to a capsule wardrobe—and why those Pinterest-perfect beige collections aren’t cutting it.

    • How to take inspiration and turn it into a wearable, personal, and stylish wardrobe that feels like you.

    Plus: the blazer breakdown (Kate Middleton vs. Kate Moss), the “cocktail attire” myth, and why thrifting with your style icon in mind can be the most fun way to build your closet.

    Tune in, laugh along, and walk away with practical tools for discovering your style essence—and how to dress for it with confidence.

    • Why personal style is deeply individual—and emotional

    • How they assess a client’s needs, closet, lifestyle, and personality

    • The importance of building a wardrobe that works for you, not just trends

    • The transformation that happens when you feel seen, supported, and styled with intention

    They also dig into the emotional side of style—how shame, guilt, and indecision can make dressing harder than it needs to be, and how working with a stylist can be an empowering, judgment-free experience. Plus, they share real-life stories from clients who rediscovered confidence, creativity, and ease in getting dressed—often by using what they already had.

    From closet cleanses to curated shopping trips to creating outfits that actually work for real life, Sarah and Tami offer a grounded, thoughtful, and accessible look at how personal styling can help anyone feel like the best version of themselves.

  • Episode 16: Amazon Dupes: It's just not worth it!
    May 14 2025

    This week on the Style Chat Podcast, we’re getting real about Amazon fashion dupes — and it’s not all lace tops and “look for less” reels. Join stylists Sarah Liller and Tami Daylami as we unpack the truth behind those seemingly amazing $30 copycat pieces and explore what’s really going on behind the scenes.

    Inspired by yet another viral dupe reel showing a near-identical Amazon version of a Free People lace top, we dive deep into the ethics, quality, and impact of fashion knockoffs. What does it mean when a top costs less than your lunch? Who's paying the real price? And does it actually feel good to wear something that looks luxe but was made in questionable conditions?

    We talk:

    • The psychology behind wanting a “steal”

    • The often-overlooked importance of fabric and fit

    • Fast fashion’s environmental and human costs

    • The difference between inspiration and outright design theft

    • Why chasing trends leads to overconsumption and wardrobe clutter

    • Better alternatives (hello, vintage and resale!)

    And yes, we fully understand the allure of convenience and the thrill of scoring a deal — we’ve been there! But as stylists who’ve spent years helping clients build wardrobes they love, we’re here to say: there is a better way to shop, dress, and express yourself. And it starts with being a little more thoughtful about what ends up in your cart (and your closet).

    Whether you’re a fashion lover trying to shop more consciously, or you’ve ever been tempted by a “dupe” and wondered what the big deal was — this episode is for you.

    Tune in for a stylish, honest, and surprisingly fun conversation that just might change the way you shop.

  • Episode 13: The Art of Color Matching: Finding Harmony in Your Wardrobe
    Feb 4 2025

    In this vibrant episode of Style Chat Podcast, stylists Sarah Liller and Tami Daylami break down the art of color matching, tackling why some combinations feel effortless while others miss the mark. They explore why so many people default to neutrals, the psychology behind color, and even how Feng Shui principles influence how colors interact.

    Sarah and Tami explain the basics of color theory—complementary, analogous, and triadic color schemes—while offering practical styling advice. They discuss how color clarity, undertones, and value impact outfit cohesion, debunking the myth that “black goes with everything.” Sarah shares how pairing blue with denim confuses many of her clients, while Tammy dives into why certain neutral pairings, like khaki and cognac, don’t always work.

    The conversation shifts to pops of color, with the duo critiquing the outdated trend of throwing a random bright shoe into an all-black outfit. Instead, they advocate for intentional color placement, using accessories or tonal variations to create a more sophisticated and cohesive look. They also discuss how to refine color intuition, from taking mirror selfies to experimenting with unexpected pairings.

    For those struggling to mix colors, they suggest using a color wheel or drawing inspiration from unconventional sources like interior design, classic cars, and fine art. They emphasize that color matching isn’t about rigid rules—it’s about balance, intention, and what feels best to the wearer.

    As the episode wraps up, Sarah and Tami encourage listeners to break out of their comfort zones, embrace more color, and find joy in experimentation. They remind everyone that style is personal, and the best outfits are the ones that make you feel confident and put together.

    Listeners are invited to continue the conversation on social media, share their color discoveries, and stay tuned for future episodes packed with even more styling insights.

  • Episode 12: Kibbe Body Types Part 3
    Jan 7 2025

    In this lively episode of The Style Chat Podcast, stylists Sarah Liller and Tami DeLami wrap up their three-part series on the Kibbe body typing system with a mix of humor, personal anecdotes, and expert advice. If you’ve ever wondered how to make sense of Kibbe’s sometimes-intimidating guidelines, this episode is for you.

    Sarah and Tami kick things off by revisiting the basics of Kibbe and sharing how it’s helped them and their clients navigate the overwhelming world of fashion. Sarah reflects on her experience as a Soft Classic, admitting that while she appreciates the insights, she’s not afraid to break a few “rules” if it means feeling good in her clothes.

    The duo dives into the delicate balance between practicality and personal style. Tami hilariously recounts the struggle of outfits that require special underwear, shoes, and constant adjusting—essentially, the kind of clothes that make you ask, “Do I really want to work this hard tonight?” Meanwhile, Sarah shares her frustrations with stiff wide-leg jeans and celebrates the discovery of flowy pants that actually work for her body type.

    But Kibbe isn’t just about clothes—it’s about finding harmony between your body, face, and overall vibe. Sarah and Tami explore how mismatches between facial features and body type can make certain recommendations feel off. They introduce listeners to other tools, like Kitchener essence theory, that focus on facial features and personality to create a more complete style picture.

    Of course, no Style Chat episode would be complete without a little sass and laughter. They poke fun at trends like bushy eyebrows and overly ambitious color analysis advice (“Blue eyeshadow for all blue eyes? Really?”). Both agree that the key to great style is individuality, not trying to look like everyone else.

    As the episode winds down, Sarah and Tami reflect on the joys of style as a journey—not a destination. They encourage listeners to embrace change, find what works for them, and most importantly, have fun with fashion. Whether it’s learning to love animal prints over florals or realizing that sometimes, you can wear black, the message is clear: Style should make you feel like the best version of yourself.

    Listeners are invited to keep the conversation going by sharing questions and feedback on social media. Sarah and Tami wrap things up with a promise that while this may be the end of their Kibbe series, it’s far from the last time they’ll talk about it (because let’s be real, Kibbe is like that friend you can’t help but keep bringing up).
