In this episode, Boonie is in conversation with Sam Smith of New Vintage By Sam. We discuss various aspects of style, including personal style development and the significance of clothing as a form of self-expression. Sam explains the importance of staying true to one's style and not conforming to societal expectations. Sam even shares how to regularly purge closets of items that no longer serve a purpose and make space for new ones. We discuss the importance of feeling comfortable in what we wear and making the most of existing pieces through creativity and styling hacks.
