Dear beautiful people, it’s giving vanilla dreams, sculpting onesies, and a yellow canary bag that’s not a bird — it’s fashion.

This week, we’re dressed like desserts and joined by the fabulous Marjia — perfume oracle, fashion queen, and the divine nose behind Perfumeria. Ivana once wandered into her store looking for Clive Christian “X” — only to be told it didn’t pass Marjia’s sniff test. Marjia was not enchanted by it, she simply doesn’t stock it. Iconic behaviour.

We dive into Marjia’s scent story — from a perfume-deprived childhood (her father said, “If God wanted you to smell like a flower....”) to Marjia being called "the scent Diviner" by a magazine. We talk signature scents, memory-triggering perfumes, and why one good fragrance is worth a thousand photographs.

Marjia shares the truth behind natural vs synthetic, endocrine drama, and why AI might have a nose for the future. She’s crafted perfumes for luxury brands and her 8-year-old, but don’t ask her to do throw a scent party. She’s a purist.

Also: gym onesies that lift and sculpt, husbands who don’t get the look (so it’s perfect for St Tropez), and why you should only buy things that make you feel a little sexy and very alive.

Hello sweet angels,

This week we’re throwing diet culture in the bin (next to self-loathing) with the divine Niamh Orbinski — author, podcaster, intuitive eating coach, yoga teacher, therapist-in-training, and all-round nourishment fairy. Ivana and Niamh get into it: food obsession, body shame, dieting since 14, eating a sleeve of Oreos while breastfeeding, and the truly radical act of saying, “My body works. I love it.”

We talk intuitive eating, rejecting the fantasy of having to be your 21-year-old size, and embracing the delicious liberation of not caring what the scales says. Niamh reminds us: we can influence weight, but not control it! Darling, no. Peace beats thinness every time.

Then — yes — Ozempic enters the chat. Ivana shares her experience: managing blood pressure and cholesterol, the silencing of the food noise, and the very real work of staying strong and sexy. It's honest, empowering, and zero shame.

Also: sensual chocolate and Niamh's notions of fancy tomato's and perfect toilet paper, and the one thing her husband hates - red lipstick — only because he can't kiss her!

This episode is about softness, sass, and coming home to yourself. Judgment off, acceptance on.

Ivana & Niamh,

The Vinyl Pants Episode

Dear Humans, it’s giving shiny, squeaky, London latex, and a top tip you didn’t know you needed: lube your trousers.

This week, we’re talking vinyl pants, Banshee bingeing, and the sheer freedom of not giving a single damn what people think. Catherine’s not using a pillow, Ivana’s using three, and somehow — it all makes sense.

We are revisiting the madness of Banshee, the fan reactions from years ago, and its glorious streaming comeback. Our algorithms send us on a positive/negative spiral, and Catherine gives laughter yoga a go — because why not?

We discuss transmugent energy, the Michelangelo effect, the Hoffman institute, husbands who hate shopping, outfits they hate even more on us, and our deep gratitude for the guests we have coming soon. Plus: let us introduce you to the legendary Nicky C Bell. You are welcome!

It’s unedited, unfiltered, squeaky, and full of big feelings. And yes, it gets even better after 50. Just ask Ivana.

Ivana & Catherine
