Pre-Loved Podcast: VERVE
Today’s show is with Katie and Anna Grace, the creators of Verve Style podcast. Verve is a podcast about the intersection of fashion and the internet – Katie and Anna Grace sit down with your favorite creators (check out their latest episode to hear from yours truly!) and discuss how they’re pushing fashion forward, plus the stories behind their 5 favorite outfits.
They also do episodes about the latest fashion news, runway shows, internet trends, pop culture… basically anything you’d gab about at happy hour with your fashion-lovin’ besties.
We talk about their stories working in the fashion industry, why they wanted to make their own fashion reporting podcast, and how to take inspiration from the fashion trends and incorporate them using secondhand styles!
It’s a really fun one, so let’s just dive right in!
