In this episode, Lisa kicks things off by shouting out some of the brilliant listeners who’ve left reviews recently (thank you!) and responds to two specific requests for an episode on “elevated casual.” Those messages sparked today’s chat on how to look pulled‑together over the festive season and when you’re WFH – because how you show up at home still affects how you feel and how you work.

You’ll hear loads of ideas for elevating casual looks, from jeans‑and‑a‑nice‑top (the forever hero outfit formula) to easy ways to smarten your everyday knits, denim and flats so you feel stylish but not “done.” Lisa also talks about what she’s actually wearing this Christmas, with party outfit ideas that work whether you’re heading to a house party (no heel dents in someone’s wooden floors, please), a cosy drinks night or something a bit more glam. Jeans and a nice top still absolutely earns its place, but you’ll also hear about the hottest trend for 2025/26: underwear as outerwear – think slip dresses, lingerie‑inspired pieces and “nightie but make it out‑out” styling, for those who dare.​

You can also shop the pod: use the link in the show notes to see Lisa’s curated edit and shop her recommendations directly – from elevated casual staples to party‑ready pieces that actually work in real life.

Finally, Lisa shares why now is the moment to grab your ticket for the Super Styling Event: The Winning Wardrobe Formula in January. If you’ve got lots of clothes but never feel like you have outfits, feel a bit lost with your style, or don’t know where to shop and what to buy next, this one‑day event is designed to change that. You’ll walk away with your 3 style words, a clear way to declutter, practical styling tips and outfit ideas mapped out for your real life – and there are only a few spaces left, making it a brilliant Christmas present to yourself.
