Hosted by LA Times Contributing Style Writer Dave Schilling and freelance culture writer/editor Alana Hope Levinson — two California natives with shopping addictions — FREE VALIDATION is a fashion podcast that centers a West Coast sensibility. Though many mainstream trends pull on the aesthetics of the West (tie dye, Birkenstocks, etc), the conversation among fashionistas around how people dress in cities like Los Angeles is largely inaccurate and condescending — that is, until now.

The Plastic Surgery Episode with Allie Rowbottom

This week, Dave and Alana are joined by the fabulous writer Allie Rowbottom, author of Jell-O Girls: A Family History and the upcoming novel Aesthetica. We dig into the thorny topic of self-improvement, both physical and emotional. Why does LA love plastic surgery, injectables, and other body modifications? Marvel at Dave trying to understand what a "unit" of Botox means!
