Sally McMullen
Hey, chick. I'm Sal.
Alex Hourigan
And I'm Al and welcome to Add To Cart, our fabulous bonus ep where we chat with our poddy guests and bond over our shopping addictions, like, crippling shopping addictions. Today we're joined by the Common Chaos hosts and content creators and besties, Cartia Mallan and Ashton Wood.
Sally McMullen
Jumping straight into the quickfire questions? What are the three products in your makeup bag that you can't live without? And why? Ashton, you go first.
Ashton Wood
Brow gel, mascara, concealer.
Sally McMullen
Cartia, what about you?
Cartia Mallan
Mecca blush stick in the shade 'Moody', Best Benefit brow gel and Mac Give Me Sun bronzer. Always.
Alex Hourigan
What's the item in your wardrobe? That's your, like, go to like you'll never get rid of it.
Cartia Mallan
My Afends low waist baggy jeans, like I live in them.
Ashton Wood
Maybe like my black oversized blazer?
Alex Hourigan
It's a staple.
Sally McMullen
It's a good go to. The worst or stupidest thing you've ever bought online.
Cartia Mallan
Honestly, I'm not an online shopper.
Alex Hourigan
Really?
Cartia Mallan
No.
Alex Hourigan
Oh my god.
Cartia Mallan
Yeah, the last thing I bought was like a, I saved up, well we like as a Christmas present bought each other like a designer bag off The Real Real and I got like, I got one and it was great. Turned out well, it was a little bit more damaged than I thought it would be but it was great! I still love her
Alex Hourigan
What are your favourite brands to shop, question is online but you can just say wherever, and why?
Cartia Mallan
Hands down, Glassons. I'm sorry. I am that person, like I love, they have a really good sustainable range, incredible denim, incredible swim, just like cute, easy crops and staples to throw on. It's so like, basic, I guess but I just love them. They always have new designs and I love it. And it's cheap, it's so affordable. And also David Jones I feel like for something a little bit more like nicer, high end they've just got really beautiful clothes and brands. So they're my two faves.
Alex Hourigan
Glassons are always so on the money with trends as well. Like they're telling me what a trend is before I even know I want it.
Cartia Mallan
They are so on it, it's not even funny.
Ashton Wood
I'm trying to think, like, I don't really have like one shop I go to. I'm the same as Carts with basics, definitely Glassons, but maybe like a mixture of like, Bec+Bridge, Dion Lee, like the nice, I don't really buy stuff.
Cartia Mallan
But that's David Jones, has like all of them.
Ashton Wood
Yeah.
Cartia Mallan
Yeah, it has all those nice brands because we both love Bec+Bridge too.
Ashton Wood
Yeah. And then like, we all, we love a little Princess Polly here and there too.
Alex Hourigan
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
Sally McMullen
Who doesn't?
Ashton Wood
They've got a sustainable range, too.
Cartia Mallan
Yeah.
Sally McMullen
And last but not least, what's your number one savvy shopping tip?
Ashton Wood
Try everything on before you buy it.
Cartia Mallan
I'm bad. I go into Glassons and like literally just grab everything and then buy it and then take it home and then I'll deal with it later, but I should just try it on in store. Yeah, I'm getting better at that. Also, my mom always used to say compare things online, like, if you're buying, like, electronics, housewares, anything, she always has to compare it and you can find the cheapest one there. That's what I've been doing with, like, cameras and stuff.
Ashton Wood
We sound so grown up!
Alex Hourigan
You are! You are grown up! You're big girls! We love it. That's our last question.
Sally McMullen
