HER Style Podcast | Shopping, Color Palettes, Fashion, Wardrobe, Outfits, Clothing

It's our first Q&A episode of the year! This one's going to be short and sweet, because I only received two questions since our last one at the beginning of December. I'm sure you had just a few other things going on over there over the past month or so. But let me know if we should keep these going regularly, the first Thursday of each month, or if I should just toss them out at random times after we accumulate a bigger handful of Q's. This show is yours, so as always, let me know what serves...

Have you ever noticed how on the days you don't feel great in what you're wearing… you're just a little quieter?

You still show up. You still do the thing. But you're not quite as sharp, as bold, or as expressive as you know you can be. You don't raise your hand as fast. You don't hit "post" as confidently. You don't walk into the room like, "Yep. I belong here."

And what's wild is — we almost never connect that back to our clothes. We tell ourselves we're just tired… distracted… not in the...

You're probably hearing a lot of "New Year, new you" messaging right now. And if that's making you feel pressured to get your style together at lightning speed, I want you to pause — before you start ransacking your wardrobe.

Because if 2026 is going to be the year you finally feel confident in your clothes, it's not going to happen because you bought better pieces, tried harder, or followed more trends. 

Your style doesn't get better when you rush into change. It gets better when you slow down long enough to get clear...

Merry Christmas, my friend! I wanted to keep today's episode simple. Not only because I'm not feeling 100% as you may hear in my voice, but because in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, I think we could all use a little break. So today, there's no teaching, no fixing, no pressure to set plans or goals — just a moment to pause together.

I've been thinking a lot about how hard we can be on our closets, how quickly frustration shows up when we look at what we own and feel like it should be...

As I was reflecting on this year — on the coaching calls, the email exchanges, the closets I've seen, the breakthroughs I've watched happen — I realized something powerful. I don't just have the opportunity to work with people on their style. I get a front-row seat to pick up on the patterns.

And when you work with hundreds of women across different seasons of life, various budgets, body types, personalities… you start to see what actually moves the needle across the board… and what really doesn't.

Today, I want to walk you through fi...

If you had told me when I recorded episode number one of HER Style Podcast that we'd get here — celebrating 300 episodes and nearly half a million downloads — I honestly don't know if I would've believed you.

Back then, it was just me, a microphone, a big passion for helping women feel confident in what they wear… and a lot of hope that someone, somewhere, would press play. And now? Here we are. It's you and me, friend.

So today's episode feels really special — because this milestone isn't just mine. It truly belongs to...

If you've ever wondered what actually happens inside my group coaching calls — what women really ask, how specific the advice gets, and what it sounds like when we take your everyday style struggles and turn them into clear, doable next steps — today's episode is going to give you a front-row seat.

Because this is a live Q&A segment pulled straight from a real HER Style Collective coaching call. We're talking about the kinds of questions that pop up when you're standing in your closet, scrolling your phone, or hovering over the "checkout" button… Like how to...

Whether you realize it or not, your style is speaking for you before you ever say a word.

It communicates confidence, competence, creativity, warmth, leadership — whatever energy you're putting out into the world — and it does it instantly.

In today's episode, we're going to talk about how to make sure your style is actually saying what you want it to say. We'll cover how style forms your personal brand, why it's one of the most powerful leadership tools you have, and what it looks like to show up with clarity, consistency, and co...

Today, we're talking about something almost every woman struggles with but rarely stops to question: Where are you actually shopping… and is it still serving you?

If getting dressed feels boring, your wardrobe feels outdated, or you keep leaving stores and websites feeling disappointed, chances are it's not because you don't know how to shop. It's because you've been shopping the same 2–3 places forever — even though your body, lifestyle, tastes, and goals have changed.

So today, I'm sharing the women's clothing stores I'm loving right now, PLUS the exact method I use to h...

Hey, friend. Welcome back to HER Style Podcast! Today's episode is a really fun one because we are digging into some real-life, highly relatable style dilemmas straight from our amazing audience. That's right! This is our last listener Q&A episode for 2025.

If you've ever struggled with finding jeans you actually feel comfortable sitting in all day… or you're tired of wearing the same outfit uniform on repeat… or you wish you had some go-to pieces that feel festive for this time of year — without building a whole special-occasion wardrobe… or maybe you're an over-packer who still...

December is officially here! Holiday parties are popping up on your calendar and this is your moment to step out feeling like the most stylish, comfortable, confident version of yourself — no matter what kind of event you're walking into.

And the great news? This year's holiday trends are fun, fresh, and surprisingly wearable. Instead of the same old sequins-and-satin story, the fashion world is giving us a mix of sleek silhouettes, modern drama, cozy luxe textures, and accessories that instantly elevate even your simplest outfits. Today, we're breaking down the seven standout trends you can bor...

If you've ever found yourself caught up in the Black Friday chaos — scrolling through deals, adding things to your cart "just in case," and wondering whether any of this is actually worth it — this episode is for you.

Today I'm breaking down the simple criteria I use to separate the true wardrobe-building pieces from the impulse-buy traps. And I'm also giving you a quick, 10-second test you can use before you check out… so you'll know exactly what deserves a spot in your cart, and what's only tempting because of a flashy discount.

I...

If you've ever found yourself saving endless outfit inspo, following stylish women on Instagram, or trying to recreate looks that seem perfect on everyone else… but somehow never feel quite right on you… this episode is going to land with you in a big way.

More than 28,000 women have discovered their top 3 style types using my free Personal Style Quiz — which is amazing — but that's really only step one. Your style type gives you a starting point… but it's not the whole story. Not even close.

So in this episode, I'm going to break down what actua...

Welcome back, friend! Yesterday, it dawned on me that Christmas is exactly 5 weeks away, which means two things… First, I need to get moving on my Christmas shopping and secondly, I need to make sure you're not doing any holiday outfit panic shopping.

So today we're going to tackle the latter and take the stress out of getting dressed for every holiday gathering on your calendar. You're going to learn the exact strategies I use with my clients to avoid last-minute impulse purchases, stop the "I have nothing to wear" spiral, and put together outfits tha...

If your size has been all over the place lately — maybe nothing seems to fit quite right, your jeans feel different from week to week, and getting dressed has turned into this emotional rollercoaster…First, I want you to take a deep breath. You don't need to overhaul your wardrobe every few months or wait until your body "stabilizes" to start feeling good again.

The real reason you're frustrated isn't that your size keeps changing — it's that your closet isn't set up for it. It's not built to support the natural ups and downs that every w...

Today's episode is a vulnerable one because I'm not talking about something I've always been great at. I'm talking about something that used to have me completely trapped: impulse shopping.

And I don't mean snagging an extra lip gloss on your way to the checkout counter at Sephora. I'm talking about emotional spending — those quick "add to cart" moments that promise to boost your confidence but never quite deliver. The one-off purchases for a party or event that don't go with anything else in your closet. The "almost right" pieces you talk yourself into, only to...

If your closet feels like a chaotic mix of impulse purchases, half-loved pieces, and outfits that no longer fit your lifestyle—you're going to love today's episode.

Meet Annette, a HER Style Collective member who went from "add to cart" shopping habits and a work-from-home style rut to curating a wardrobe she genuinely loves. In this conversation, she shares how she simplified her closet, rediscovered her true style after weight loss, and started dressing with ease, purpose, and joy again.

You'll hear how we combined color science, wardrobe strategy, and psychology to h...

Welcome back to another monthly Q&A episode of HER Style Podcast! How is it November already? I don't even know. But these episodes are some of my favorites because I get to hear directly from you — your questions, your challenges, and your real-life style needs.

Today, we're covering an exciting variety of topics, including how to stay motivated to dress your best consistently (the perfect continuation to our last episode), how to track down low heels that are comfortable, affordable, and stylish enough to wear to work — especially for teachers who are on their feet...

I hope you're feeling more and more excited to get dressed with each HER Style Podcast episode you tune into. But even so or if you're in an early phase of your style journey, rest assured that we all have those days and moments when we look into our closets and feel completely and utterly uninspired.

Maybe just a few weeks ago you did a little shopping, added some new pieces, or even refreshed your whole wardrobe — but now you're right back where you started, reaching for the same easy combos, or just throwing on wha...

When you look at your closet, do your clothes reflect the life you're living right now… or the one you picture in your head?

For many women, this is where things start to break down.We buy the sequin dress for 'someday,' the heels that sit on the shelf gathering dust, the fancy blouse that feels great on the hanger but awkward on a Tuesday Zoom call. And then, we wonder why we're constantly frustrated, standing in front of a full closet, saying we have nothing to wear.

Fantasy shopping is o...

When most people hear "capsule wardrobe," they picture a tiny closet full of plain basics—beige sweaters, black trousers, a sensible blazer. Practical? Sure. But inspiring? Not so much. And that's exactly why capsules have a reputation for being… Well, frankly? A snooze-fest.

But in my experience, a capsule wardrobe can be one of the most exciting and freeing ways to get dressed—when it's built around your unique style, your real life, and the right mix of staples and star pieces. It's not about stripping your closet down to a rigid checklist. It's about curatin...

Be honest, friend: how many times have you stood in front of your closet second-guessing which colors actually look good on you? If you've been told you're a "Spring" or a "Winter" and still don't feel confident, it's not you. It's the system. And there's a better way.

The truth is, color analysis has the power to completely transform your wardrobe. It can be the thing that unlocks your confidence, helps you shop smarter, and finally makes your closet feel cohesive. But only if it's done right. Because the old seasonal systems? While I love, a...

If your closet was a financial portfolio, how would it be performing? Chances are, most of your "investments" aren't pulling their weight. Studies show the average woman wears only about 20% of her wardrobe — meaning 80% of your wardrobe investments are sitting idle. But what if you could flip that around? What if you could get a much higher return on what you already own, without buying more?

That's exactly what we're going to cover today. I want to help you see your closet as an asset, not a liability. Because the fact of the matter is, you...

Alright, imagine that you and I are both wearing a plain white t-shirt and jeans. Same exact outfit. Now, I stack bangles, add a fringed bag, and throw on oversized hoops while you slip into delicate pearl studs, tie a silk scarf around your neck, and reach for a polished structured satchel. We started with the same base, but now our looks have a totally different feel, right?

That's the power of accessories. They're not just "extra." They're how we communicate our personality without saying a word. They help us to define and create our p...

We've hit that time of year again: the season of chunky knits, cozy coats, big scarves, and all the layers you can pile on. The temperature is finally starting to dip over here and while I love staying warm and bundled up as much as the next person, let's be honest: cold-weather outfits can sometimes make us feel more like a marshmallow than a style maven. 

While you can't always avoid bulk in the fall and winter, you can control your proportions. And that, my friend, is what makes the difference between looking swallowed up by...

Did you know the average woman wears only about 20% of what's in her closet? That means the other 80% is just taking up space—and often making it harder to get dressed. So no wonder we end up with that dreaded feeling: a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear. Today, we're breaking that cycle for good.

I'm going to walk you through five simple steps that will help you clean out the clutter—without leaving you feeling deprived.

By the end of this episode, you'll know:

Hey friend, today's episode looks a little different than I originally planned. My idea was to walk you through my fall closet edit—what I'm letting go of and why. But when I actually sat down with my wardrobe this weekend, I realized…I don't have much to get rid of right now.

And that revelation got me thinking… maybe you don't either.

It's easy to believe that every new season requires a big overhaul. You've probably heard my advice to clean out your closet at least twice a year, if not more...

Happy October, friend! I'm feeling very lucky today because it's not only officially my favorite month of the year, I also get to answer YOUR questions in today's episode! I always love these monthly Q&A's because they give me a chance to connect more personally with you and cover exactly what you want to hear on the show.

Ever wonder: Whether my color tips work on darker skin tones? If off-white and cream is always the better choice for blondes? How to look classic and polished while experimenting with prints? Or how to handle a...

We all know fall fashion is fun. You've got your layers, the cozy textures, the rich and luxurious hues. But the shoes? The shoes are where the magic happens. They ground your outfit, they can change your vibe instantly, and they have the ability to make you feel practical, powerful, or playful in a split second. And this season? We have a lot of amazing options and trends to choose from.

Today, I'm breaking down the top 7 shoe styles you'll be seeing everywhere this fall—and more importantly, how to know which ones will work bes...

It's officially fall here in the northern hemisphere and I'm curious… Have you experienced this yet? The first crisp, cool morning of the season, you're standing in front of your closet, and suddenly that flowy summer dress or easy linen top doesn't feel quite right anymore. There's always that awkward seasonal in-between that can tempt you to run right out and impulse buy all the cozy layers you're not sure you can live without. But you really don't have to start over! You don't need a whole new collection of clothes to survive the weather fluctuations, and you definitely do...

Hey friend, welcome back to HER Style Podcast! This past week we wrapped up the Wardrobe Revamp Bootcamp and it was incredible. The energy in the group, the lightbulb moments, the fun… I didn't want you to miss out. We had to bring some of the goodness to the podcast today, too!

So in this episode, I'm sharing the top 5 takeaways that had everyone buzzing. You're going to hear directly from the live training sessions, and I'll break down how you can apply these insights right away.

Think of this as your...

Today I get to share a beautiful story of transformation with you. You'll meet Carrie, a mom of 2 young kids, who went from feeling lost in her style to actually feeling happy to get dressed every single day.

I think you'll love hearing her honesty about where she started, what made her take the leap into HER Style Collective despite having lots of reasons to put it off, and the big shifts she's experienced—not just in her wardrobe, but in her confidence as a mom and a woman.

And while you...

Imagine this: it's a weekday morning. You walk over to your closet, open the door, and instead of letting out a sigh of frustration, you instantly know what to wear. You reach for an outfit that feels comfortable, flattering, and 100% YOU. You slip it on, glance in the mirror, and think, "Yes. This is perfect. This is exactly how I want to show up today."

This might feel very far from your reality, but it's not a fantasy, friend—this level of ease and confidence around getting dressed is completely possible. And it's precisely what we...

Fall is my absolute favorite season. But I know for so many of us, it's also the season where life speeds up. School's back in session, routines are filling out, work demands pick up, and family commitments multiply.

And with all of that going on, your wardrobe? It's usually the last thing on your list.

In today's episode, I want to speak to that exact struggle. If you've been putting off fixing your closet because there just aren't enough hours in the day, this episode is for you. I'm going to sh...

One of the most common frustrations I hear from women is this: "I can't find clothes that flatter my body."

Maybe you've been stuck in that cycle—ordering a pile of clothes, trying them on, hating how they look, and sending most of them back. Or maybe you've spent money in-store, only to let those pieces sit in your closet because something feels off when you put them on.

Let's clear the air right away and say that YOU are not the issue and neither is your body. The real problem is n...

Welcome back, friend! Today we're diving into one of my personal favorites—our monthly Listener Q&A episode. These are always so fun because I get to hear what's on your mind, where you're feeling stuck, and how I can best serve you right here on the podcast. Each piece of advice I'm about to share is designed to help not just the woman who asked, but anyone listening who may be struggling with similar style challenges.

Before we get into it, I want to remind you that if you'd like to have your question ans...

I love hosting free events, like our upcoming Wardrobe Revamp Bootcamp, for so many reasons. It's exciting to provide a focused training and such a joy to see your transformations in less than one week! It's a joy to hang out with you inside our free pop-up group and get to know you better. And one of the biggest highlights is having the opportunity to answer your toughest style questions in real-time and coach a few of you personally along the way.

That's right! We are already giving away tons of awesome prizes, including 15-minute p...

It's that time of year again, where we take a deep-dive into the hottest fashion trends of the season! I know these are some of your favorite episodes to listen to and they're just as fun for me to put together. I'm no longer the trend chaser I once was, but I do love keeping a pulse on what's happening in the industry. And more importantly, I love helping you navigate what to wear.

Let's team up today to figure out which ones are going to fit seamlessly into your life (and onto your body) a...

Fall is right around the corner, and if you're anything like me, you're probably craving a little refresh in your wardrobe. But instead of diving headfirst into the trends—or getting stuck in that dreaded cycle of "I have nothing to wear"—I want to give you three simple questions you can ask yourself to identify your fall style with ease.

These questions will help you narrow in on what feels authentic, what fits your real life, and what communicates the image you want to put out there. And the best part? You can answer them...

From dreading her closet to showing up at a professional photoshoot with total confidence—today's guest, Lisa McLeod, has completely transformed her style and the way she shows up in life.

Inside this episode, you'll hear Lisa's honest story of what her wardrobe felt like before joining HER Style Collective, what made her take the leap into our 90-day program, and the biggest shifts she's experienced since then—including an everyday errand at Nordstrom Rack that turned into an unexpected style compliment, and how discovering her best colors has changed everything from how she dresses to ho...

While I really do enjoy the freedom and extra family time that comes with summer, my routine-oriented nature lives for the fall. Like Meg Ryan's character in one of my favorite rom-coms and go-to "sick day" movie, You've Got Mail, I get excited thinking about bouquets of freshly sharpened pencils, planning the structure of our more set schedules, and dreaming up new goals with the change of the season.

And friends… it's almost here!

So while the kids are heading back to school and you're thinking about structure and rhythms again, I wa...

A couple of my girlfriends and I like to get together and puzzle during the fall and winter months, which I'm starting to get weirdly excited for even though it's only August! But do you know that feeling when you're working on a puzzle, but the pieces you have just… don't fit together? It's so frustrating, isn't it? It looks like they should work and you can try to force them into place, but you know deep down that it's not quite right. THIS is exactly how an unplanned wardrobe feels. You've got clothes, yes—but not the right comb...

Hey friend. I see you there, staring at a full closet, feeling overwhelmed with all the options of what to wear. But guess what! You don't have to spend hours culling your closet to get ready faster in the morning. Although, that can certainly help.

But before you resort to ransacking your wardrobe, turn up your Airpods and listen in for a simple 3-step framework to help you get out of analysis paralysis and make confident styling decisions—fast. If time is of the essence and you're ready to stop feeling frazzled every morning when you face yo...

Hooray! Hooray! It's Q&A day! I am a little bummed out that it's already August, but at least that means it's time for another round-up of amazing style questions straight from our community.

In this episode of HER Style Podcast, I'm offering up my advice on several listener-submitted questions, including how to build a transitional wardrobe for pregnancy and postpartum, how to stick to your best colors and personal style preferences even while working out or lounging at home, and how to dress down without losing your classic, elegant, or feminine edge. We'll also e...

Ever wish you could be a fly on the wall during a real style coaching session?

In today's episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my group coaching program, HER Style Collective, so you can hear the exact advice I shared with a handful of our members recently—including how to match your feminine or elegant aesthetic with more casual summer pieces, how to stop overthinking your style mood board, and how to transition a "beachy" color palette into something you can wear year-round. We even took a deep-dive into belts and dissected how to...

If your wardrobe isn't working, shopping might feel like the obvious solution. But buying more isn't always the answer, especially if you're not sure what's wrong in the first place. 

In today's episode, I'm sharing five powerful ways to reset your style, feel better in your clothes, and get more from the pieces you already own—all before you even think about adding anything new to your cart.

The way you shop is not random. It's deeply connected to your personality and your personal style preferences—and until you understand that connection, you might be making purchases that don't actually serve you or your wardrobe.

In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on how your style can drive your shopping habits (both the helpful ones and the ones that might be working against you)—and how you can finally make them work together to build a wardrobe you love.

Let's dive in and make sure your style type is suc...

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by your closet or unsure how to create outfits that actually feel like you, you're going to love today's conversation. I'm joined by one of our incredible HER Style Collective members, Sandra Avila, who came into the program wanting clarity and cohesion—and is about to walk away with so much more. 

Sandra still has an entire month left in this process, but I know her story will encourage you, especially if you're wondering whether real change is possible within a short period of time. Let's dive into what made the...

The older I get, the faster the years fly by! And it's crazy to think that I've been a Certified Image Consultant and Color Specialist for the past 18 of them. From working in personal shopping at Saks Fifth Avenue and J.Crew to styling private clients both locally and all over the world, I've learned a lot of lessons (sometimes the hard way) in that time.

In today's episode, I'm sharing 18 of my most important takeaways—one per year—in just 18 minutes!

Tell me if you know this feeling. You spot something so cute while scrolling Instagram, walking through your favorite store, or in that TikTok try-on haul you don't know how you rabbit-holed your way into. Your heart says, "Yes! I need that item now!" But then it hits you: What will I wear it with? Or worse, you buy it, and then it just sits in your closet with the tags on, because it doesn't go with anything you already own.

I've been there, too. As a former queen of impulse shopping, I'm sharing my g...

What if the most powerful colors in your wardrobe... are the ones you barely even notice?

Today, we're talking about NEUTRALS—but not just the blacks, whites, and beiges you're used to. I want to help you expand your definition of what a neutral can be and show you how to identify the right base colors for your wardrobe so you can more easily mix and match your pieces without getting bored or ending up looking like everyone else.

Let's dive in and redefine our neutrals together.

Oh friend, I have the BIGGEST treat for you today! In this episode of HER Style Podcast, I'm sitting down with the legendary Christine Buzan! If you're not familiar with her work already, Christine is a posing expert and a phenomenal coach who helps women show up in pictures as the best version of themselves. She believes that posing is a skill that can be learned, and not something people are naturally born with. Just like styling yourself, you can learn to look your best in photos, too!

Hey friend! Welcome back to HER Style Podcast. I received an email recently from one of our listeners (quick shout out to our friend, Kaelyn! 👋) asking where she should start at the beginning of her style journey. Her request made me realize we haven't done an introductory episode in quite a while.

So today, I'm excited to share my story, offer up a few simple steps to help you start up-leveling your personal style, and share the MOST important thing to focus on as you begin building a wardrobe you love. We're going back to the...

Today's Q&A round-up is going to be a fun and jam-packed one! We are covering a whopping 6 questions on a range of topics from adding personality to your outfits without looking juvenile to the best type of self-tanner, shopping terms to find what you're looking for online, and finding low-rise shorts in a high-rise world… and so much more!

Maybe it's because we're only doing these Q&A episodes monthly now, but they feel so special to me and I get really excited when we turn the page on the calendar and I get to...

What if you could open your closet and instantly know exactly what to wear—not because you've memorized a formula or copied your favorite influencer, but because everything in there feels like you? I'm talking about having a wardrobe that is fully aligned with your signature style—the kind of style that turns heads not because it's loud or flashy, but because it's confident, consistent, and unmistakably yours.

Today, we're tossing out the rulebooks, ignoring what's trending, and getting laser-focused on one thing: how to define a style that reflects who you are, supports your lifes...

Have you ever stood in front of your closet—maybe with only 10 or 20 minutes until you're supposed to be out the door—feeling like you have nothing to wear… even though your closet is full? Maybe you've tried on six different tops, tossed three pairs of pants onto the bed, and now you're just staring into the mirror wondering why getting dressed feels this hard.

If that sounds familiar, I want you to know this: outfit anxiety is real, and you're not the only one who deals with it.

As a personal...

Do you have a lot of amazing pieces in your closet, but struggle with putting them together into flattering looks? The fact of the matter is, what you own is only one piece of the puzzle. It's not just WHAT you wear, but HOW you wear it.

Today, I'm busting one of the biggest myths about capsule wardrobes—the idea that there's a perfect number of pieces you should have. Spoiler: There isn't. But there is a better way to figure it out, and I'm about to walk you through it step-by-step.

If you've ever felt stuck trying to limit your wardrobe to 33 or 50 or whatever number of pieces someone told you you should own —no more, no less— then this episode is your permission slip to stop counting and start curating what works for you. Keep listening and we'll uncover your magic n...

Hey friend, welcome back to HER Style Podcast! If you've ever stood in front of your closet thinking, "I have nothing to wear," only to head to the store or your favorite site and impulse-buy a bunch of pieces that don't really go together or work for you longterm… then this episode is for you.

Today, I'm walking you through a super quick, 4-step process to create your seasonal shopping list—in under 1 hour. Because I know you're ready to be more intentional about what you buy, but let's face it, you might not have a ton...

From how you speak to yourself to how you get dressed in the morning, these small shifts will add up to a major transformation. Let's dive in and get you feeling your very best, my friend!

Today's guest is someone I've admired for years, and I know you're going to walk away from this conversation feeling seriously inspired. I had the privilege of sitting down with Julie Wainwright, founder of the billion-dollar luxury resale powerhouse, The RealReal.

Julie launched The RealReal at age 52—not long after someone labeled her "unemployable." Fast forward just a few years, and she became one of only 23 women in history to take a company from startup to IPO. And if you've ever sold or shopped designer pieces on The RealReal, you've personally experienced her revolutionary impact on...

Welcome back to HER Style Podcast! I'm not happy about how fast this year is flying, but the bright side is that it's already time for another monthly Q&A round-up episode! I absolutely love receiving your questions, hearing what you're curious about and want to dive deeper into, and having the opportunity to to help you solve some of your top shopping and styling challenges —for free!– right here on the show.

Please don't ask me how, but it's already JUNE, which means swimsuit and BBQ season is officially here for those of us in the northern hemisphere. And with the summer season comes a lot of conversations in our community about how we look and feel in our bodies. As much as I love empowering you to show up at your most confident on the outside, we can't ignore the importance of taking care of ourselves on the inside.

If you've been feeling frustrated about changes in your shape, size, energy, or overall mood, I want t...

I don't know about you, friend, but I will admit that every so often, I'll have a day when I DO NOT feel like getting dressed. Whether I'm running on too little sleep, I'm not feeling 100%, or the weather is dreary and I know I don't have to see anyone other than my immediate family, I will seriously contemplate staying in my pajamas. Do you ever have these "ugh" days when putting together an outfit feels like too much? If you're in a style rut or your wardrobe isn't working for you right now, I know it can be...

Welcome back to HER Style Podcast, my friend! I'm so glad you're here, because we're taking on one of the biggest challenges I hear about in our community. If you've ever stared into your closet for way too long, feeling like you have nothing to wear or confused about how to put your pieces together... that changes today.

I'm about to make getting ready faster, easier, and —dare I say— a whole lot of fun! In today's episode, we're going to dive into 7 outfit planning habits that will seriously change your mornings forever. No spreadsheets or ap...

At 240 episodes in, I think you already know about my love of fashion. But there's another facet to looking and feeling your best that I don't talk about as often here on HER Style Podcast and I think it deserves a little attention today: makeup and beauty!

I have loved playing with different makeup applications since my teen years, when my parents gifted me the book, Teenage Beauty, by Bobbi Brown. Eventually, that followed with Bobbi's Beauty book, an extensive collection from Kevyn Aucoin, and many dollars spent on various eyeshadow palettes, lipsticks, and blush v...

We are on the official countdown to summer over here! We opened our pool yesterday, which I probably won't go in beyond my ankles until it warms up. But my wild and crazy boys are happy to take the cold plunge. Either way, it's all very exciting! I know our schools run a little later than some, but my son is working through an alphabet countdown for the remaining days. Today is the letter H for hula hoop day, so I can't wait to hear all about that later this afternoon.

But I digress. My p...

Do you ever stand in front of your closet and think, "Ugh, this just isn't me"? You have plenty of clothes. You've made dozens of purchases. You've even tried following all of the "rules." And yet, your wardrobe still feels off—like it belongs to someone else or like it's stuck in a past version of your life.

In today's HER Style Podcast episode, we're diving into 4 sneaky reasons why your closet doesn't feel like you yet so you can pinpoint the problem. Even more importantly, I'm going to help you figure out exactly how to...

It's no secret how much I love creating these podcast episodes for you—in fact, that's why I had to make the switch back to twice weekly episodes! We have too much to talk about! But the color conversations are always my personal favorite. And today, we're tackling a big one: how to build color into a mostly neutral wardrobe without feeling overwhelmed or out of your element.

If you've been considering branching out from your black, white, camel, and gray comfort zone, but you're not sure how to do it in a way that fee...

Hey friend, welcome back to HER Style Podcast! Today we're tackling a myth that I love to bust: You don't need more clothes. You just need more ways to wear what you already own.

I know—it's so tempting to scroll, shop, and think that this next piece will solve all your outfit problems. But what if the solution is already hanging in your closet?

In this episode, I'm walking you through a super simple, step-by-step process to help you unlock multiple outfits from just ONE piece. Whether it's a dress, a bl...

A common obstacle I see in our community is the struggle to bridge the gap between your 9-5 wardrobe and what you wear outside the office. But friend, you don't need to invest in two separate wardrobes to feel stylish every day of the week.

Today on HER Style Podcast, we're talking about how to build a transitional wardrobe—one that can take you from work to weekend without needing an entire outfit overhaul —or expensive shopping spree. I'll walk you through the mindset shifts and practical strategies to help you mix, match, and reimagine the p...

Welcome back to another Q&A round up episode of HER Style Podcast! I've been loving answering a handful of listener questions the first week of each month. It's really helped me keep my advice short and sweet, more impactful and easier to implement, and I think we've been able to cover an even wider variety of topics, which is so much fun! 

That said… I miss popping into your Airpods every single Thursday. So I'm very excited to announce that we are bringing back twice weekly episodes!! Yay! 🎉

Starting this month, I...

I finally did it, friend. I decided to see what all the fuss is about firsthand. I joined Nuuly in March and after testing out two months worth of hauls, I'm ready to share all of my candid thoughts about this clothing rental company. If you've been debating about whether to rent clothes on a monthly basis, you are definitely going to want to turn up your Airpods!

In today's episode, I'm sharing the good, the bad, and the unexpected discoveries I've made about Nuuly —and whether or not I'll be continuing to rent on the...

This past week, I was doing some online window shopping for one of my clients. Her daughter is getting married later this year and so we're on the hunt for the perfect mother-of-the-bride dress! Imagine my excitement when I stumbled upon the unicorn dress we've been looking for. It was not only in one of the wedding colors, but my client's exact eye color (a match made in heaven). It was a stunning silhouette for her figure, modest to suit her personal taste, and well within her ideal price point. I mean, this dress checked all the boxes. I...

Hey friend! I just wrapped up the most incredible week hosting our first ever Shop Your Closet Challenge! It was the greatest joy to connect with you for 5 whole days and walk you through some very simple steps to start wearing what you own. I was so impressed by everyone's commitment to keep an open mind, try new things, and look at their wardrobes with a fresh perspective: letting go of the belief "it won't work" and asking "what if it can?" instead.

This openness led members of HER Style community to cut the tags o...

Surprise, surprise… I have a very special bonus episode for you today! This is not our typical Q&A Thursday conversation. Instead, I invited HER Style Collective member, Jenna Anderson, to join me for a very open dialogue about how she has navigated so many of the challenges I know you might be facing, too.

In this interview with Jenna, she opens up about struggling for years to figure out her personal style and what flatters her (she clarified that it was, in fact, a 7 year battle—right after we stopped recording) and how all of th...

If you've ever found yourself afraid of shopping online or overwhelmed at the thought of what to wear, you're not alone. HER Style Collective member, Allison, felt the exact same way just a few short months ago.

In today's episode, Allison shares her story of learning how to shop with confidence, make what was already in her closet work so much better for her, and finally feel excited to get dressed and start her morning!

Not only is this exactly what we set out to accomplish together inside HER Style Collective, I...

Wow! Where did March go? I feel like I was just recording our last monthly Q&A round-up episode and here we are, already moving onto April!

Today's episode is going to be SO GOOD! I'm answering a handful of questions from women in our community. We'll be covering questions like suggestions for shopping and styling linen pieces, which pant silhouettes are in style —but not too trendy! — right now, petite clothing brands for classic style types and where to shop for kids, PLUS how to apply my tip about wearing your hair color when your...

In the last HER Style Podcast episode, I shared a handful of revelations from my most recent closet audit. We all know the value in cleaning out the clutter and eliminating the excess. So why is it that we often avoid auditing our wardrobes altogether?

What I've seen over the years is a lot of fear around taking on this task. We decide it's overwhelming and going to take way too much time to sift through everything. We worry that even though we might feel like we have nothing to wear, giving away a lot o...

It's a rare treat to work on my own wardrobe these days. I'm perfectly content to invest all my creative energy on helping my clients find their perfect pieces, style their best outfits, and curate their dream closets. But after my recent trip to Punta Cana in January, I realized I was in desperate need of a few new spring and summer items.

So I got to work, following the 6-step wardrobe revamp process I teach inside HER Style Collective, my 90-day group coaching program. I knew that in order to shop strategically and fill i...

Surprise! I know I said we are moving to monthly Q&A episodes, but that doesn't mean I can't throw in a bonus episode for you every now and then. Today, I'm very excited to take you behind-the-scenes of my 90-day group coaching program, HER Style Collective. I meet with our members for live style coaching every single week and in this podcast episode, you get to be a fly on the wall and listen in!

Stick around as I coach these incredible women on an array of topics like navigating two very different personal s...

We're switching things up here at HER Style Podcast. We're transitioning from weekly to monthly listener Q&A episodes starting this week! The first Thursday of each month, you can expect one of these exciting bonus episodes where I round up and answer a handful of your toughest style questions.

In all transparency, this is not the topic I originally had planned for today. But last week, as I was working on a piece of free content for my community, I started to experience the bubbling up of a very unwanted, yet familiar feeling: wardrobe envy

As I continued to scroll through Pinterest and social media rounding up the outfit images I needed to go along with the topic I was presenting, my sadness, longing, and jealousy continued to grow. I realized I had to stop and rework my podcast plan. Because if I'm feeling t...

Matching lounge sets are one of my favorite wardrobe staples these days! In this laidback lifestyle so many of us are living, they offer comfort and style and help me feel put together even if I'm just working behind-the-scenes or relaxing at home with my family for the day. But are they truly 100% effortless? After receiving this week's question from our friend, Shaina, and working with dozens of women inside HER Style Collective who have faced very similar challenges, I'm not so sure.

But Shaina's DM definitely got my wheels turning and in today's Q&A...

Hello, Valentine! With the annual day of love approaching later this week, I thought it might be a good time to shift gears and focus on a little self-love today. Because we can definitely be our own worst critics. I've covered episodes on body image and eliminating negative self-talk on the podcast before. But today, I wanted to bring in a trusted expert to guide us around reclaiming our confidence, learning to love and treat our bodies well, and making exercise a habit that sticks.

Whether you're a mom or not, I know 4 in 5 women...

I've shared quite a few tips on HER Style Podcast about how I organize and maintain my closet and how to make your wardrobe audits more fun and effective. But I received a fantastic question from our friend, Nic, over on Instagram that I've never covered before.

She wants to know WHEN is the best time to declutter your closet — at the start or the end of the season? What a brilliant question, right? And as we start thinking ahead to spring (I know, it can't come soon enough!) and preparing to switch out our sea...

Hey, friend! Are you planning an upcoming vacation? Do you want to make sure you've covered all your bases and planned the perfect travel capsule?

Let me be clear… This episode is not going to help you with that. 😂 I have shared a couple of practical, step-by-step packing-related episodes in the past, which you can conveniently find in the show notes. But today, I'm getting real and raw about my recent vacation capsule crisis. Think of this as what NOT to do when planning your next getaway!

That's right! I packed for my...

If you listened to and implemented the last HER Style Podcast episode #212, which was all about helping you figure out your best colors on your own OR if you've invested in a personal color analysis, you might be wondering how to start incorporating your best colors without breaking the bank!

When you realize you've been wearing the wrong colors for your complexion or you simply uncover some exciting new options you can't wait to add into your collection, it's still just as important to be thoughtful and strategic about what you buy. I don't want t...

If you're interested in fashion and building out a thoughtfully curated closet you love, it's almost impossible to avoid all the chatter about color analysis these days! This has been a very trending topic on TikTok and YouTube for the past year or so and I don't see the conversation dying out anytime soon. Which is great news for me, because you may or may now know that I believe the colors you wear are one of the most impactful factors in feeling your best, your most confident, and getting dressed with the greatest ease!

When you're stuck in a wardrobe rut or wearing the same outfits on repeat, I'm a firm believer in being willing to experiment your way to more creative and inspiring combinations. If you want to maximize what you own and break out of your comfort zone all at the same time, you might need to take a few risks. But how can you know when combining unexpected items together works and when it just looks weird?

In this episode, we're going to break down the art of high-low dressing including how to mix dressier pieces w...

It's official, friend. HER Style community is the coolest. It's been decided. You get the award! You showed up SO big at this week's 4-day Wardrobe Revamp Bootcamp event where we talked all things dialing-in your signature style, shopping with intention, and maximizing what's in your wardrobe. I can't even tell you how much I enjoyed our time together this week.

In case you missed out on some or all of the action, I thought it would be fun to put together a special compilation episode of some of the best moments from the week. A...

Want me to let you in on a little secret, friend? My 6-step system for building a wardrobe you love isn't enough to get the job done. I admit it! I can give you the fastest, simplest roadmap and coach and cheer you on every step of the way, but there's something else required from you to get you to the finish line.

And I invited two members of my 90-day group coaching program, HER Style Collective, onto the podcast today to tell you the TRUTH about what it takes to revamp your wardrobe. Neva a...

Happy New Year, my friend!

Tomorrow is NYE and I don't know about you, but this is one of my most favorite times of the year. It's right up there with Christmas and Halloween! Any day is a good day to implement better habits and routines and get serious about your goals, but there's an undeniable motivation that comes with a crisp, new calendar year.

I love taking the week between the holidays to start envisioning what I want to improve on in the days ahead. Whether it's sticking with my workout routine or being more diligent about my daily q...
