Summary

In a world where shopping integrations and #sponsored posts dominate our social feeds, it can often feel like the rapid onslaught of trends and aesthetics is homogenizing personal style and killing creativity.

Escalante tapped a couple of fashion insiders to get their takes, so you'll also hear clips of her conversations with style curator and writer Heather Hurst (@pigmamiii) and Saks Fifth Avenue fashion coordinator and writer Jalil Johnson (@jalil_johnson_).
