What happens when you take the language of glossy fashion magazines, mix it with culture criticism, and point it straight at the industry’s most eye-watering contradictions? That’s the energy behind Not Buying It — a print + digital magazine that calls out greenwashing, fast fashion hypocrisy, and the marketing spin the mainstream media often lets slide.  In this episode, we speak with the founders behind Not Buying It to explore how they remix the magazines of our girlhoods — complete with hot takes, quizzes, agony aunts, and “Oh Major Greenwashing” moments — to dissect fashion, sustainability, and culture with sass and substance.  We’ll dig into: • Why they launched a magazine Big Fashion doesn’t want you to read • How Not Buying It blends satire, real critique, and community storytelling • What it means to call out culture without cynicism • The role of independent media in shaping how we think about conscious consumption Whether you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by sustainability messaging or just tired of surface-level marketing, this conversation will give you a sharper lens — and maybe make you smile while doing it. Press play if you’re ready to expose the green sheen and rethink the stories brands want you to buy.
In this episode, I sit down with Pure.Tech, a materials technology company taking a fundamentally different approach to air quality and sustainability, by changing the materials themselves. Pure.Tech develops nature-inspired technology that can be embedded directly into everyday materials such as paints, paper, textiles, and polymers. Once integrated, these materials actively neutralize harmful air pollutants over time, without requiring electricity, filters, maintenance, or behavioral change. Instead of treating sustainability as an add-on, Pure.Tech builds it into the foundation of products and spaces, turning surfaces and materials into continuous, passive contributors to cleaner air. This approach has the potential to help industries reduce emissions at scale, improve indoor and outdoor air quality, and rethink how sustainability shows up in design, manufacturing, and infrastructure. We dive into how this technology works, where it’s already being applied, and what it could mean for the future of fashion, materials, and climate innovation. If you’re curious about how sustainability can be embedded into the things we already use every day, this conversation offers a glimpse into what’s next.
In this episode of The Lexy Show, we dive into Make Polluters Pay, the growing movement demanding accountability from the corporations most responsible for climate damage and environmental pollution. We break down how the idea of personal responsibility has been pushed onto consumers for decades, while major polluters continue to profit with minimal consequences. From fossil fuel companies to fast fashion giants, this conversation unpacks who is actually driving the climate crisis, how the narrative around individual “carbon footprints” was shaped, and why systemic accountability matters more than ever. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by climate guilt or questioned whether individual lifestyle changes are enough, this episode is for you. We explore what meaningful climate action really looks like, how policy, corporate responsibility, and public pressure intersect, and what it would mean to finally make polluters pay for the damage they’ve caused.
In this episode, we sit down with Sam Cerwin, co-founder and CEO of BeReworn, a fashion-tech platform reimagining how people engage with sustainable fashion through community-driven clothing swaps and circular events. Sam shares how her background and love of fashion led her to build a solution that makes sustainability feel accessible, social, and genuinely fun, rather than overwhelming or exclusive. Sam walks us through the idea behind BeReworn and the gap she saw in the fashion space, a lack of centralized tools for organizing and discovering clothing swaps, upcycling events, and circular fashion experiences. We talk about the stigma that still exists around secondhand clothing, why community is such a powerful driver of change, and how swapping can be both a practical and meaningful alternative to constant consumption. Throughout the conversation, Sam also opens up about the realities of building a startup in the sustainability space, balancing impact with growth, and what the future of circular fashion could look like if more people leaned into shared wardrobes and local connection. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about sustainable fashion, community building, or creating change in a way that feels human and achievable.
In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Dell Scott—the powerhouse behind the Dell Scott Collection, an international luxury fashion brand that has graced runways from New York and Los Angeles to Paris and Dubai. Dell opens up about her journey from a young girl with a passion for fashion to the founder and CEO of a global brand that celebrates confidence, elegance, and female empowerment. Listeners will learn how Dell combines creative vision with business savvy, transforming challenges into opportunities and building a brand rooted in helping women embrace their inner brilliance. From her early struggles with confidence to winning accolades in fashion and authoring She Designed a Life She Loved, Dell’s story is a testament to resilience, creativity, and purposeful style.
Sustainable fashion advocate Lexy Silverstein joins WABC-TV to break down the fast-growing holiday trend known as Thriftmas — a Gen Z–driven movement focused on giving secondhand, thrifted, and upcycled gifts instead of buying new.

In this episode of The Lexy Show, we dig deep into radical sustainability with Ashleigh Dawson, the founder and president of Recycle2Riches. What started as a personal wake-up call against the waste and overproduction in fashion has turned into a mission to shift how we buy, wear, and recycle for good. Ashleigh also shares inspiring stories from the ground from community workshops to volunteer efforts, and why grassroots change is the backbone of what they do. If you care about style, sustainability, and smarter consumption — or if you just want to believe change is possible this episode will leave you rethinking your closet and your footprint.
