Wisdom From the Wardrobe.
Join the team from Michael Bruce Image Consulting as they discuss your personal style.
Style is...More relevant than people realize; it permeates every aspect of how we conduct our daily lives. Personal style makes a statement about who we are; but even more importantly, it conveys how we feel about who we are. Professional style does the same, but it also conveys how successful we feel about what we do. Personal and professional style combine to create a brand; it is Michael Bruce Image Consulting's job to help define your brand identity.

This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we're buttoning up the conversation and letting style loose as we cozy up to that wardrobe staple: the cardigan. From its battlefield beginnings (shoutout to the 7th Earl of Cardigan) to its runway reinventions, the humble cardi has gone from knit necessity to closet hero.
The team gets wrapped up in the many faces of the cardigan, cropped, longline, belted, circle, and yes, even those chunky, slouchy ones that toe the line between cozy and couch potato. We unpack which styles flatter which body types, how to avoid falling into frump territory, and a few surprising ways to wear this wardrobe workhorse.
We’re not just spinning yarns here, this episode is full of styling tips, fashion missteps to avoid, and a few “knit-picks” about what not to do when layering up.
If you’ve ever wondered whether your circle cardigan is a style win or a wardrobe whoopsie, this one’s for you.
Expect fashion fun, plenty of puns, and expert advice on how to make your cardigans anything but boring. Happy listening, and remember, cardigans aren’t just for librarians.
It’s all feathers and fashion on this week’s episode of Wisdom from the Wardrobe! The team kicks things off with a red-carpet recap from the Cannes Film Festival, where one brave attendee ruffled more than a few feathers, literally, by arriving as a full-on Condor to promote the documentary I Love Peru.
But after soaring through the headlines, the crew dives beak-first into the world of color blocking, what works, what doesn’t, and how to pull it off like a pro. Whether you’re pairing pink and red or trying to make neon and navy play nice, this episode is your stylish survival guide to mastering bold color combos without looking like a walking traffic cone.
Expect laughs, learning, and a few fashion faux pas. Happy Listening!
What do you get when In the News takes over the whole episode? A disorganized perfection, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, Lady P's plan was promptly disregarded like fast-fashion from last season, while the 2025 Met Gala pulled at our heartstrings. With the theme "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," and the dress code "Tailored for You," we perused the blue carpet, and we are here for every bead, button, and bespoke moment!
We breakdown the best and most unforgettable looks (and unapologetically fabulous looks) and some that had wondering what happened:
Shaboozey made his Met Gala debut in a turquoise wave-patterned suit, matched with turquoise grillz, and a tilted wide brim hat basically saying, "I am the owner of this carpet." Lauryn Hill looking like butter wouldn't melt in her Jude Dontoh suit that included cape, umbrella, and drama worthy collar that gave us chills. Demi Moore, black tie redefined with a beaded ensemble that was an actual necktie. Fashion pun intended and executed completely. And Colman Domingo serving royalty in Valentino and Boucheron layered with sequins, and more texture than a luxury fabric swatch book, to name just a few.
If you enjoy a none too serious Met Gala recap with a side of sass and smarts, and tailored suit talk, this episode is custom made for you. Listen in for your weekly dose of style talk.
This episode of Wisdom from the Wardrobe, the style squad trades closet space for living space and dives into Spring/Summer 2025 home décor trends with a healthy dose of color confusion and couch commentary.
In the “In the News” segment, Bec bends our brains with the story of Olo—a brand-new, never-before-seen color discovered by scientists at UC Berkeley. Imagine a teal so saturated it doesn't actually exist... unless lasers are involved. (It’s basically Schrödinger’s color, and we are living for it.)
Then, the team swaps fashion for furniture, revealing if their homes match their personal style and what design trends are making waves. From color drenching and eco-friendly design (hello, vegan leather) to vintage vibes with a modern twist and indoor-outdoor flow, the crew dishes on creating a stylish space that feels like home, or a wellness retreat.
So, whether you're reimagining your living room or just trying to figure out what Olo feels like, this episode is your playful peek into how personal style translates from wardrobe to wall paint and beyond. Happy Styling!
This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we dive headfirst into the accessory abyss—where style meets sparkle, and trends get a little cheeky. The gang unpacks Spring/Summer 2025 accessory trends that are anything but basic. Think pearls with a twist, futuristic sunglasses that scream "meet me on Mars," beaded beauties, sculptural stunners, and a sea breeze of coastal-cool inspo. Your accessories are about to get a major main-character moment.
But first, Bec’s in the News spills the sustainable tea on Phia, the new online consignment platform co-founded by Bill Gates’ daughter and her college pal. With tech titans not footing the bill and AI raising sustainability eyebrows, is this the future of fashion resale—or just another drop in the digital ocean?
Tune in for laughs, hot takes, and the style scoop that keeps your wardrobe wonderfully wise. Stay stylish!
Ready to decode the secret sauce of getting dressed? In this episode of Wisdom from the Wardrobe, the style squad breaks down the Art of the Outfit Formula—a repeatable way to make stylish choices that actually fit your lifestyle (and your closet).
From the viral 3-3-3 outfit method to tried-and-true styling shortcuts like choosing a hero piece, adding a “completer,” and finishing with your signature flair, we walk you through how to craft looks that feel effortless—not algorithmic.
And in this week’s “In the News” segment, Bec breaks down what luxury price hikes (yes, even Hermès!) mean for fashion fans and brand earnings—no econ degree required.
Whether you're stuck in a closet rut or just want to build better looks without overthinking it, this episode adds style logic to your wardrobe magic.
Hit play for a formula worth repeating—and wearing. Happy Styling!
We’re back with part two of Style vs. Aesthetic: Are We Dressing for Ourselves or the Algorithm? —and this week, it’s getting personal. Literally.
In this follow-up episode, the Wisdom from the Wardrobe crew unpacks how closely our style aligns with our identity, and what it means when it doesn’t. Can you build a personal style when trends change faster than you can say “core aesthetic”? And how do you stop dressing for the scroll and start dressing for your soul?
Expect smart style advice, honest confessions, and takeaways that’ll help you define (or refine) your look without losing yourself to the algorithm.
And don’t miss this week’s “In the News” segment—because nothing ruins a great outfit like dirty sneakers. From toothpaste to nail polish remover, we’ve got the hacks to get your white kicks looking like new.
Closet clarity and clean shoes, that’s what we call a win-win. Happy Listening!
Style, Aesthetic, and the Algorithm: Oh My. This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, the style squad dives headfirst into the ever-blurring line between personal style and curated aesthetics. Are we dressing for ourselves… or just for the ‘gram? With algorithms shaping everything from our scroll to our style, the team unpacks how digital trends influence what we wear—and whether our closets reflect who we are or who the internet wants us to be.
Expect candid fashion confessions, hot takes on trend-chasing, and a few “been there, wore that” moments. Plus, in this week’s “In the News” segment, Bec introduces us to Maud Wagner—circus performer turned trailblazer, and the first known American female tattoo artist circa 1877. Now that’s permanent style.
Tune in for part one of the Style vs. Aesthetic: Are We Dressing for Ourselves or the Algorithm? Conversation and get ready for a style identity check-in that’s as real as it gets. Happy Listening!
This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we’re going Skin Deep—and yes, Stacy’s literally joining us from inside a closet. We’re airing out more than just clothes in this jam-packed episode that blends style, self-care, and a little soul-searching. In “Bec’s in the News,” we unpack a fresh take on wardrobe and life clutter: Dissolving. It’s the new wave of wellness that digs deeper than decluttering—less about what you’re getting rid of, and more about why you’re holding on. Whether it’s your closet, your home, or your headspace, this four-step process helps you clean with clarity. Emotional baggage, begone!
And speaking of cleansing… we welcome special guest Brook Kennedy, owner of Suite B Hair and Skin Lounge in Issaquah. She gives us the glow down on all things’ skincare from SPF facts (spoiler: the sunscreen in your makeup probably isn’t enough), to how your skincare should shift with the seasons of life. We also get the truth about dermaplaning—does the hair grow back thicker, and how often should you do it?
So, grab your gua sha and your emotional inventory—we’re scrubbing the surface and what’s underneath. Because when it comes to style and skincare, the glow must go on. Happy Listening!
This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we’re digging deep—literally and figuratively—into fashion’s past and future. In our "In the News" segment, we marvel at a medieval bishop’s ring, lost for centuries and recently unearthed in a Norfolk field. With its hexagonal sapphire, emeralds, and garnets set in pristine gold, it’s a reminder that great style (and great jewelry) is meant to be worn, no matter what the century.
But while history is dazzling, the future is calling—specifically, the Spring/Summer 2025 fashion trends. This season is throwing subtlety out the window in favor of a bold, personality-driven style. Quiet luxury? It’s stepping aside to make room for pattern clashing, retro influences, and a fresh take on summer plaid. Think beige, black, and baby blue checks—somewhere between Nirvana grunge and countryside charm.
And that’s not all—expect coastal prep done right (not just nautical stripes) and sporty sensibility outerwear that’s as practical as it is stylish. The big question: will SS25 finally show Stacy some love, or is she destined for another season-long breakup? Happy Listening!
Step aside, Mona Lisa—Birkenstocks tried to take a step into the art world, but Germany’s high court wasn’t buying it—literally! This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we unpack the legal battle where Birkenstock argued their shoes were art, only to be told they’re just… shoes. (Ouch!) Love them or loathe them, the case had us wondering: when it comes to this iconic (yet divisive) footwear, is it frumpy or fabulous? And more broadly—is all fashion art, or just function?
Then, we trade footwear for follicles as Kat, "The Queen of Kutz" from Salon 8 in Bellevue joins us to talk Spring/Summer 2025 hair trends. Say goodbye to cool, icy tones and those trendy but tired mushroom blondes—this season, it’s all about warmth! Think sun-kissed soft blondes, rich chocolatey brunettes that add glow to your skin, and an effortless, polished vibe that says “put together” without screaming high maintenance.
As for the cut of the moment? The Pixie is back! With sharp lines that lift the face, it’s a bold, fresh look making waves. And for the gents? It’s all about intentional grooming—because looking effortlessly sharp takes a little strategy.
Tune in for style, sass, and expert hair tips that will keep you ahead of the trend curve. From Birkenstocks to blowouts, we’ve got you covered!
When it comes to standing ovations, Anna Wintour keeps her claps close—so close, in fact, she’s only given five since 2019. This week, Wisdom from the Wardrobe kicks off with the fashion queen’s measured applause before diving into a different kind of head-turning mastery: men’s grooming.
We’re joined by Jimmy and Chad, the barbers behind The Grooming Lounge, one of Bellevue’s best-kept secrets for precision fades, sharp shape-ups, and premium personal barbering. Fun fact? Jimmy happens to be Bruce’s barber—cue the bromance and plenty of laughs.
From swirl patterns and mullets to why a fade isn’t just a fade, we break down the art of barbering, the rise of personalized grooming, and why a great cut is more than just looking sharp—it’s an experience. Tune in for tips, trends, and maybe even a new look!
Lace Up, We’re Back for Round Two! This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we’re seeing style through a new lens—literally! Bruce kicks things off with the big news: A$AP Rocky is taking on the role as the first Creative Director of Ray-Ban. The rapper, style icon, and now eyewear innovator is stepping into a bold new role, proving once again that vision is everything, especially when it comes to fashion.
Then, we walked the talk and picked up where we left off last time, diving even deeper into the perfect shoe pairings for different wardrobe staples. From sleek stilettos with pencil skirts to combat boots with pleats, plus the best footwear for guys rocking intentional baggy jeans, we’ve got the ultimate guide to nailing your look from head to toe. Whether you're stepping out in pointy-toe flats or stomping in lug soles, we’ve got the sole-utions for your styling dilemmas.
Listen now and step into style confidence!
Stepping up your style games this week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we flipped the script—literally! Bec spun her usual “In the News” segment on its head, delivering fresh Bec-omendations and a new bit called “That’s News to Me.” The standout? Head spas. Yes, you read that right. It’s a thing, it’s luxurious, and now we all want one.
Then, we took a step in the right direction with our main style topic: What shoes actually go with your outfit? From pairing the perfect heels or boots with a satin skirt for effortless elegance to choosing the right footwear for wide-leg jeans or even those tricky flares, we covered the sole essentials. Plus, we touched on the Wrong Shoe Theory—because sometimes, breaking the rules is the best fashion move.

And speaking of memorable (or questionable) fashion choices—we have to talk about Bianca Censori and Kanye West’s latest fashion "moment." Did we just witness a high-fashion statement or a literal case of The Emperor’s New Clothes? We’ll let you decide. But before you resign yourself to another six weeks of winter wardrobe woes, we’ve got you covered!

Move over Pumpkin Spice—Pantone’s Color of the Year is serving Mocha Mousse... and let’s just say, the team isn’t exactly foaming at the mouth over this one. In this week’s episode, we serve our thoughts on this muddy little number and stir up a conversation about the full Spring/Summer 2025 color palette. From Bran to Deja Vu Blue, Crocus to Lime Cream, Pantone promises a mix of earthy, exotic, and eco-inspired hues, but did they really deliver the color cocktail of our dreams? Or is this palette more meh than masterpiece?
Plus, in our style and sustainability corner, Bec brings us a fascinating breakthrough from MIT—a new biodegradable material made from sugar and amino acids to replace microplastics like the beads in skincare. Science meets self-care? We’re intrigued.
Join us for a hue-larious discussion as we dissect, debate, and, of course, serve a little shade on the latest color trends. Hit play and let’s get chromatically chaotic! Happy Listening
