Tashira Halyard: Is Personal Style an Act of Resistance?

In this episode, digital creator, style expert, and social justice advocate Tashira Halyard joins FASHIONPHILE Founder & President Sarah Davis to unbox conscious consumption, building a capsule wardrobe, and fashion as an act of self-expression.  From starting her blog Politics & Fashion while studying for the bar exam to pivoting from child welfare policy to working at Saint Laurent after surviving breast cancer, Tashira shares how personal adversity shaped her career and style philosophy. She discusses finding your “style pillar,” when to invest in trends, and the role circularity plays in curating a closet. She also reveals why shopping and selling pre-loved gems (like the JPG Birkin she sourced from FASHIONPHILE) is akin to borrowing a book from a library.  The conversation dives deep into why resale models are essential to the future of retail, how consumers can build sustainable value in their closets, and what it means to shop with true intention.
