A little background, Lexis grew up in Wisconsin, and came of age in Milwaukee's vintage scene.

All that and more! Let's dive right in! DISCUSSED IN THE EPISODE: [5:16] Early memories of Lexis vintage shopping with her mom, including an antique store in a rural barn. [7:50] Her career in vintage actually started with fashion photography.
