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 variations over the years.

While I’ve settled into a comfortable everyday makeup routine in recent years, I’ve been feeling inspired to mix it up lately. So I decided to research what’s trending in the beauty industry this spring and summer. I stumbled upon 5 major themes that I’m confident will work for all of us! So in today’s episode, we’re talking about all things cosmetics, what looks I’m trying this season, and how to figure out what’s right for you, too. If you want a few new foolproof makeup tricks to try, this is the episode for you!

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 point is that we are charging full speed ahead into a new season and I want to make sure your closet is ready for the occasion! Let’s make sure you have what you need to feel amazing in the months ahead.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the basics for a cohesive summer closet, the trends you might want to consider adding in right now, and how to make smart shopping and styling decisions that will work well for your unique lifestyle, preferences, physical features, and budget.

Are you ready to build a summer capsule you’re going to be excited to wear on repeat? Then let’s get to work, my friend!

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 feels easy and authentic to you, then you are in the right place. You don’t have to overhaul your closet or wear the whole rainbow. I’m going to share a few manageable ways to weave in the perfect touch of color to keep your wardrobe feeling fresh, flexible, and fitting for your style. You ready, friend? Let’s do this!

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 blazer, or that cute top you bought and barely wear, I’ll help you rethink how to style it so you can stretch your wardrobe without stretching your budget.

This is the exact kind of practical, personal styling approach I use with clients, and I promise—you’ll walk away with fresh outfit ideas you actually want to wear. Grab that one piece you’ve been neglecting or wearing the same way on repeat, and let’s dive in.

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 pieces you already own in new, wear-anywhere ways.

If you’ve ever stood in front of your closet thinking, ‘I have nothing casual enough for brunch’ or ‘this is too dressy to wear to the park,’ this episode is for you. Let’s simplify, stretch your style, and make your wardrobe work harder for you.
