Wear Who You Are

Clothing prices are up—and yes, it’s frustrating. In this Nat Chat, Natalie gets honest about the reality of rising costs and how we navigate it together. While we can’t control pricing, we can pivot. She breaks down how to spot quality (fabric, construction, finishing details) and where she’s currently finding strong options that don’t require the same old go-to brands. Practical, real-time guidance for shopping smarter right now.

Editor's Note: This episode was recorded before Everlane was acquired by Shein. References to Everlane reflect Natalie's opinions at the time of recording and do not represent her current views on the brand's quality or ethics.

What is Wear Who You Are?

Every person has a style, and every style deserves support. Enter your style strategy cheerleader and founder of BU Style, Natalie Tincher. Since 2010 Natalie has worked with hundreds of personal clients as well as large corporations and a major global news network—and she is here to guide you.

Each episode shares real questions, practical insights, and thoughtful conversations about how clothing works in real life . . . not just on social media. You’ll hear from trusted style experts like tailors, designers, and other industry professionals, along with my own perspective from years of working with clients who want their wardrobes to truly support their lives.

This podcast isn’t about chasing trends or copying someone else’s style. It’s about giving you the knowledge and perspective to make thoughtful decisions about what you wear. Because when your clothing feels like an extension of you, getting dressed becomes one less thing to overthink—and one more way to show up as yourself.
