Tom UsherHOST
So I wanted to, I wanted to say some quotes from this Highsnobiety article.
Nathaniel ColeGUEST
Yes.
Tom UsherHOST
Um, "The best accessory is being bald.
Tom UsherHOST
There's a creature comfort in refreshing my wardrobe, but alongside these fresh threads, I've come to rely on one consistently reliable style hack to shave off, to stave off heat death, taking electric shaver straight to my dome." God, the way this is written is horrible, but, um, that is Highsnobiety for you.
Tom UsherHOST
But, um, "You can dress in sheer fabrics or turn boxer shorts into outside shorts," apparently.
Tom UsherHOST
"You can let the dogs out or aggressively wave a paper fan in your face." I don't know what any of that actually means.
Nathaniel ColeGUEST
Mm-hmm

Georgia HamptonCORRESPONDENT
Today, that concentration has broken apart.
Georgia HamptonCORRESPONDENT
Everything is now a signal.
Georgia HamptonCORRESPONDENT
Every purchase, product, and experience functions as a marker of taste, knowledge, and cultural credibility regardless of category." Unquote.
Georgia HamptonCORRESPONDENT
According to Highsnobiety, the cool kids are no longer showing up to dinner with a Louis V handbag as a status symbol.
Georgia HamptonCORRESPONDENT
They're pulling a David protein bar out of that bag.
SouhaHOST
I went to a park with a friend, and I was like, 'No, I can't take off my hood.' I was terrified of the paparazzis and these stalkers I've had." However, Eilish clari-clarified that she had no goal of this is going to make everybody think differently of her.
SouhaHOST
The Grammy winner ended up discovering that people did think of her differently as a blonde, as she told Highsnobiety one year later.
SouhaHOST
She said, quote, "I didn't feel sexy for one second of being blonde.
SouhaHOST
Uh, when I was blonde, people treated me differently.
