I also like brands like Free People, Black Halo, Milly, Hale Bob, YSL, Adidas. I’m loving Byron Lars lately, he definitely designs for curves and the vision is so dope. I think it’s a mix of athleisure wear and boho mixed with some high-end accessories like handbags and shoes.ĮC: My favorite designers are all over the place given the season and reason. I have hits and misses and I’ve gotten comfortable with the process of figuring it out.ĮLL: How would you describe your ‘off-duty’ style?ĮC: My off-duty style is COMFORT… I love to have “a look” but that look is a bit more effortless chic, LOL. I like to keep personality in my wardrobe even for “daytime TV attire.” This has been a challenge to figure out what looks best on my body for camera while keeping my personality in it as well. I try to have an attitude of gratitude, even when the newscycle isn’t so upbeat and positive.ĮLL: On set, what is your fashion style, what do you wear?ĮC: On set my style is very sassy business. Sometimes it feels like work, but mostly it feels like a sweet gig! After glam I go to set and I’m off to the races of 3.5 hours of being on-air. Sometimes I’m successful at all of this, other days I have to remind myself I’m only human! I have a much longer day at DBL, but not all of it is what I would traditionally call “work.” I mean, I get an hour of daily glam with hair, make-up and wardrobe to start the day. I now use those early hours to workout, meditate, voiceover the show teases of the day from my home studio, get myself ready for my day to try to set myself up for success. I no longer have to be at work at 4:30-5am, but all of those years of doing that taught me the importance of getting an early start to my day. What is your daily schedule like?ĮC: My schedule at Daily Blast Live is much different than being on morning radio. Take us behind the scenes and describe life on set. Less than 10 years later I was working in the same building he was, doing just that.ĮLL: You are a television host on the Daily Blast Live Show. At the end of the summer I told him that I was going to be a Radio Girl. I then began to sneak and call my favorite station WGCI, a jock by the name of Crazy Howard McGee used to let me introduce the “Junior Crazy Hall of Fame” bit. I would record the jocks and then record myself copying them. When I was 12 I got grounded for the entire summer, I spent the whole time in my bedroom listening to the radio on my karaoke machine. Tell us more about that experience?ĮC: Radio was my first love, I used to listen to radio all the time and knew all of my favorite jocks. A radio career that would lead me to Denver in 2009 to become the “Girl Power in the mornings” at ALICE 105.9.ĮLL: Before you became a television host, you were in radio. Learning to create my own lane was the key to survival, it was also the key to my early success in Chicago radio. Too city for the suburbanites, too suburban for the city folk. I learned so many life lessons from the juxtaposition of who I knew myself to be versus how others saw me. So much of my life was influenced by the duality of my home/family/church life being a city girl in the burbs. I returned to the city to attend DePaul University. Where did you grow up and what brought you to Denver?Įrica Cobb: I’m from Chicago, IL I lived on the West Side until I was 9 years old and my parents moved the family to a Western Suburb of Chicago. Esther Lee Leach: Let’s start all the way from the beginning.
