But then, of course, I also am getting someone who's explaining to me, you know,

here's why it's important to think about the fact that the Odyssey has cast Lupita Nyong'o in this character and I'm like I don't know I just kind of feel like it's rocks and she's the most beautiful woman in the world so like of course she's Helen of Troy we don't have

And so I do think this idea of saying like, hey, it's OK to be a little bit of a pseudo intellectual.

It's OK to say that like some of these very serious things are on the same level as some of these very light and enjoyable kinds of entertainment, which like fashion movies and pop music are.

Yeah.

I think it maybe helps us to think of things in a less kind of like strenuous, overworked way.

I love that.

Well, I mean, I think, you know, a big part of this is like what you're drawn to, how you like to spend your time.

Those are the things that really do shape my personal style.

Now, of course, I'm someone who thinks about these things obsessively.

So it may be unsurprising that, you know, when I am looking through, you know, for example, I just bought this wonderful book that's Portraits of Jazz Musicians from the

1950s and early 60s.

So for me, I'm like, oh my gosh, what an incredible image of Miles Davis.

And how does he get his pants to fit that way?

You know, like, of course, that's the way I'm thinking about it.

But I do think, you know, that everything that we sort of take in and the sort of media that we're drawn to, the movies we enjoy watching, even the other people we like spending time with, those are things that inform us

us or can be information to help us figure out you know like what is it that i really like or how do i like to feel you know i think um in these conversations about personal style that have become so prescriptive the one thing that i um think we always forget about is like you should really just feel comfortable and that doesn't mean wearing sweatpants it just means like you should feel good in what you wear and you should feel like

You're not questioning it.

It's not distracting you.

I think it's totally great to distract other people.
