I'm Elizabeth Reese.

And this is Best to the Nest, the podcast that is all about creating happy, healthy, beautiful homes that prepare us to fly. We have a fun topic today, Marjorie.

Well, how about preparing your closet so that you can fly? Isn't that the truth? So you can

put some clothes on and fly out the door. So I feel good. Truth. Our topic today is holistic

style. And I think this is a really interesting, even just title for the episode, because as I was

thinking about it, the guests that we're talking with today, it's not just as simple or as sort

of frivolous as just like, what's your style, figure out a style or copy someone's style and put it on.

It is really looking holistically at your life and about what your life is like and how

you want your clothes to reflect you and then getting dressed with ease.

And that is the focus of our guest today and her stylist sort of mission.

So I thought we'd start before we talk with Catherine about our style. Now Marjorie,

you have a great love of black turtlenecks. That's like a real big piece of your style.

Big piece of me is, yeah. I love a good black turtleneck. And when I, well, Elizabeth is referring to,

there was a period when I lived in Minnesota where I was very frustrated with the weather.

You were, yeah. And I just decided I'm going to wear blue jeans and a black turtleneck every day until the snow goes away.

It was like three weeks.

Every day I were the same thing, which is interesting because that in it of itself was very freeing.

And you know I love clothes, but there was something really cool about getting up in the morning every day

and knowing what I was going to wear and knowing that it was going to be comfortable.

And that probably comes from 17 or how many years, 15 years of Catholic school education and uniforms.

For sure.

There was something very comforting about that.
