For the last couple of years, I’ve been obsessed with podcasts. Whenever I’m on the subway, or walking around by myself, I’m always listening to something fun, or educational, or both. The Capsule ’98 – a ’90s nostalgia podcast by a fellow Torontonian Randi Bergman, with featured guest appearances by celebs like Dan Levy and Sarah Gadon, and icons like Jeanne Beker and costume designer Mona May – is one of my personal faves and must-listens that I never skip. Which is why I was so stoked to see it expand with a fantastic new storytelling website Capsule98.com. There are Bedroom Diaries, featuring the coolest people you wish you knew, interviews about all things ’90s with celebs like Leighton Meester, and lots more. If you’re a child of the ’90s, or you simply love everything about that decade, you should definitely dive into this time capsule of pop culture, fashion, and nostalgia, I promise, you’ll love it.
Last week, Randi invited us to celebrated the launch of Capsule98.com with an epic slumber party, and most attendees certainly got the memo! From chic PJ sets, to glam boudoir lewks, this was the chicest slumber party I’ve ever attended. Despite having perfect PJs to wear to the party, I ended up throwing on my best Empire Records inspired outfit instead (silk PJs in the winter after getting over a cold was just not going to happen), complete with a fuzzy cropped sweater, mini skirt, and a vintage backpack, while my friend Anya rocked her fave Sleepshirt. We snacked on copious amounts of candy, lounged on Casper mattresses, sipped Ace Hill radlers, and posed for glamour shots by the incredible Renata Kaveh. It was a night to remember! Luckily, photographer Mauricio Calero was there to capture it all for posterity.
