A bit of a workwear special today - especially if you work in Corporate but these tips apply to any workplace. As I've mentioned many times on this podcast, what you wear matters. Clothes can be used as a tool for success and importantly as armour to help you look polished and professional and feel it inside. 

But that's not enough by itself. Of course you need to be good at your job as well as looking the part and this is the topic of discussion in today's podcast.

If you work in a professional environment or a corporate workplace, how do you look and feel your most confident self?

I invited Annelise Peso, a leadership coach onto the podcast to discuss this and lots more. Annelise is an ex-corporate lawyer who used to be Head of Legal at Morgan Stanley. She is now a leadership coach helping executives in demanding jobs to show up as the best version of themselves at work whilst looking after their own well being. Annelise is also an Italian passionate love of fashion! She shares how important her style is to her and why you shouldn't be afraid of dressing up. 

We cover:

- The power of self care

- Boundaries at work

- How to look and feel confident in a demanding workplace

- How to deal with stress at work

- Fashion and its place in the workplace today.

This week’s episode is all about colour and the fascinating psychology behind it. Colour makes us feel things, we associate times and feelings with certain colours. Lots of people can’t bear to wear their school uniform colours and I've got a strange hatred of the colour orange. 

This episode really went off on some interesting tangents! I love it when that happens, when the chat just flows and you make new discoveries along the way.  My guest today was my friend and long-time collaborator Teresa Klasener. Teresa is the resident mindset coach here on The Style Stories Podcast and an avid fan of wearing bright colours and loves a bright lipstick. 

In this episode we covered:

I am joined by one of my listeners this week - Zena Everett. Zena is a leadership coach, author and public speaker and she helps people to project confidently at work. My job is to help people LOOK the part at work so our skills work well in tandem. We had an interesting discussion around:

- Using clothes as armour at work

- How our style evolves over the years as we transition through life

- Why you don't need to look like everyone else at work anymore

- The modern workwear minefield 

- Plus we asked, can you be taken seriously at work if you wear stylish clothes (spoiler alert - YES of course you can)

We covered a lot - this episode is focussed on how to project yourself in the workplace from the point of view of a personal stylist and a leadership coach.

We also did a giveaway. Get a free copy of Zena's book if you follow us both on Instagram and DM each of us saying 'BOOK'

Following on from the last two episodes with fellow Personal Stylist Lizzie Edwards, I am digging deeper into how to create a perfect capsule wardrobe.

This is going to look different for everyone. We are all so different! One person loves wearing dresses and florals, another is a minimalist. It's all about your taste and your vibe so how does this translate into your actual wardrobe?

In this episode I cover 4 main things you can do to really nail this down. The benefits that follow after are amazing! Once you know what really works you can ignore what doesn't, shop more efficiently and get so much more from your wardrobe. Dressing like your authentic self massively boosts confidence too and that has positive effects throughout life.

If you feel stuck in a style rut then it's probably time for a change. The start of a new year is a perfect time to reassess your style and I've got the tools to help you do that.

Lizzie is a hugely experienced fashion stylist, and is sharing her insider knowledge on what it takes to get a streamlined, stylish wardrobe. In this episode we discuss why style matters, how to get a perfectly balanced wardrobe and how you can use clothes to boost your confidence and career in 2024.🚀 It's not about fashion, it's about style and having a wardrobe that is streamlined and reflects who you are makes life easier! Your wardrobe should support you in your work and personal life and make you feel great.

This first episode sets the scene and we discuss why it's important to pay attention to what you wear and how you can get clear on your personal style. In part 2, Lizzie is sharing her actionable tips on how to get a streamlined wardrobe and clarity on your personal style so you can build a wardrobe that is perfect for you. Both Lizzie and Lisa have years of experience as personal stylists and are sharing their valuable insights into how you get a great wardrobe and why it matters.

We are discussing; what to wear over Christmas, Christmas traditions & having no New Year resolutions. Also, the recent controversial article in the Daily Mail which stated you can't wear sequins over 50 because you are too old!! 🤬

I hope you enjoy this different episode dedicated to Christmas.

We had a few technical issues in the episode but most of it is smooth like brandy butter. Enjoy!

Have you planned what you are wearing this holiday season? It's December 1st today and that means it is acceptable to wear sequins all day, every day! If you want to of course, there are plenty of people who do not and prefer a low-key more casual vibe this time of year. In this episode I have lots of ideas for festive party dressing from casual and low-key to FULL-ON 'extra' party dressing. I also created a blog to go with this episode so you've got a visual guide and can shop entire outfits with ease. Check out the blog here

I love this time of year but it's very busy so I hope this can cut through some of the vast choice in the shops and bring you lots of inspiration.
