About this Episode
I always felt in a rush. I wasn’t making decisions based on a connection. I was making decisions based on speed. That was the lightbulb moment. This exact circumstance is the epitome of “Fast Fashion.” SPEED and pressure to buy.
Most people aren’t thinking anymore. They are just buying. Buying because it's cheap. Buying because they think they need. Buying not out of love, but out of impluse.
I started to think...maybe more people than we know are buying just to buy, and even because they feel they have to.
Do you guys ever feel this way?
We think more stuff is going to create more looks, and the reality is, it just isn’t. My story is a perfect example of that.
Would love to hear your thoughts on the topic!
Do you sometimes buy just to buy?
Do you ever feel overwhelmed with the amount of STUFF you have?
Do you wish you had less stuff, but more to actually wear?

My Story
There is A LOT happening in the next few months! With just a few more moving parts to take care of and orders to be made, I can finally approve finished samples and shoot the product to start SHARING WITH YOU!
I know you have been patiently waiting! In the meantime, I thought I would tell you a little more about myself. I feel so lucky to have you as a part of this journey, so it's only fair you know more about me and how I got to the point I am at today!
Chatting about my personal journey from childhood to now, including how my career in design began, the failure of Platinum Penny, and why it has all been a stepping stones to Classic Six.
I hope you will take a listen!

The True Cost
This is my first podcast!
I need to tell you all about a documentary I watched last year that, I guess now, in retrospect, may have changed the trajectory of my career!
One of the main reasons I started Classic Six was my new found stance on fast fashion, and it was only until I started shopping fast fashion in excess for Platinum Penny, did I realize the environmental and social impacts of my choices.
