On What Are You Wearing, we like to talk about how fashion makes us feel. And the reality is, for so many Australians, the simple act of walking into a retail store and trying to buy a piece of clothing they love makes them feel terrible.

Today, we're joined again by Mamamia's own Laura Brodnik, this time to talk about her viral article "An honest letter to all the Australian retailers who don’t want me to wear their clothes."

Laura speaks about her experience finding clothes she loves, plus gives us some recommendations for some brands doing it right.

We know that pop culture and fashion is intrinsically linked, and with Venice film festival bringing the looks and the celebrity drama, we thought we'd invite Laura Brodnik, pop culture expert and host of The Spill, on the show to break down some of the best looks and what they mean.

We also play Kiss or Kill with three divisive red carpet looks, and Tam pinpoints some of her favourite trends from the festival and where you can shop them, without breaking the bank.

De-gendering fashion- you might have heard of it before, maybe even on this podcast, but it's not a 'trend'. It's more of a movement, and it involves unlearning a lot of gender norms.

Today on What Are You Wearing, Deni opens up about their journey finding their style, the hardships along the way, and how we can all learn to be more accepting of people's authentic choices.

Plus, on Boujie and Budget, Deni brings two leopard looks and Tam recommends some comfy separates.

It's Spring! Aka the time when magazines unleash their coveted September issues. But why the hype, and are they even relevant anymore?

In this week’s episode, Deni and Tam talk about three new covers that have gone viral and share their honest thoughts - from Linda Evangelista’s return to fashion after a cosmetic procedure left her “disfigured”, to THAT Nicole Kidman image, to the Vogue Australia cover that made Deni uncomfortable - there's a lot to unpack.

As we all know, there is no one way you 'should' dress for your body shape. But to be comfortable, especially in a world of limited sizes and options for everyone, it's always good to have a few tricks and tips for shopping for different bodies.

She shares her three best pieces of advice, and some of her favourite brands. Plus, Tam shares how she shops for her more petite frame, and Deni tells us why we need to 'f**k the skinny pile'.

When you think Anne Hathaway, do you think 'style icon'? Maybe not, but these days she's turning heads with her sleek, on point fashion choices. Enter the 'celebrity fashion glow up', where a celeb reinvents their look, with or without the help of a stylist.

Plus, in Boujee or Budget, Deni has a gorgeous shacket recommendation, as well as it's Kmart dupe.
