    339 | Why Does Everything Look Better on the Hanger?

    Is it just me or do clothes have this incredible ability to look super cute on the hanger or styled on a mannequin... and then five minutes later, you're standing in a fitting room wondering if you accidentally grabbed a completely different shirt by mistake?   What's actually happening? Why do clothes often look way better on the hanger than they do once we try them on? Is it the lighting? The styling? Our bodies? The clothes themselves?   Today, I want to peel back this little mystery layer by layer. Once you understand what changes between the store display and the fitting room — and the right question to ask when an item doesn't look the way you expected — shopping is going to become a whole lot less disappointing.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective   Related Episodes: 196 – Body Image Boost: It's Not You...

    337 | The 5-Minute Closet Test That Reveals What's Missing

    Right now inside Her Style Collective, a lot of our members are working on designing their dream closets. Some are wrapping up their ideal summer wardrobes, while others are already looking ahead to autumn. And my role throughout that entire process is to help them figure out exactly what's working, what's not, and what's actually missing (if anything).   Inside the program, we go much deeper than I could ever fit into one podcast episode. But as I've been coaching everyone through this process, I found myself thinking, There has to be a simpler version I can share with podcast listeners, especially since doors to the program are still closed until this fall.   Maybe you've been standing in front of your closet feeling completely stuck. Maybe you genuinely don't know where to begin. And maybe the next step isn't shopping... but you don't know what else to do.   So today, I want to walk you through a quick five-minute closet test that can reveal what's really missing and exactly what to do next.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective   Related Episodes: 247 – Stop Overspending! 4 Steps to Create Your Seasonal Shopping List In Under 1 Hour 231 – Wardrobe Gaps: Identifying and Filling the Missing Pieces in Your Closet 116 – The 5 Things You Need To Put On Your Wardrobe Shopping List

    336 | Want a More "Expensive-Looking" Wardrobe? Start Here

    When I see yet another article or YouTube video promising to teach me how to "look expensive," I can't help but roll my eyes just a little. Not because I think looking high-end is a bad goal. I actually think that's what a lot of us are after! It's just that the advice all sounds the same:   Wear monochromatic outfits. Buy a crisp, white button-down shirt. Carry a structured handbag. Stick to classic neutrals.   These suggestions aren't necessarily wrong, but they're not teaching you what you actually need to know.    So today, I want to unpack what really creates that polished, pulled-together impression, even as the trends come and go, and where I'd encourage you to start if you want a wardrobe that looks more elevated and expensive.   Because after almost twenty years of helping women build wardrobes, and watching some women spend more money in one shopping trip than I've spent in the last decade combined, I don't think we're responding to price tags nearly as much as we think we are.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective   Related Episodes: 311 – You Don't Need a Better Wardrobe — You Need a Better Way to Make Decisions 165 – Where to Shop and When to Invest In Higher Quality Pieces 72 – Create Better Outfits Using These 3 Design Principles

    335 | I Lost Weight... But I Still Don't Know What To Wear

    Over the course of my career, I've had the opportunity to work with women who've lost anywhere from 10 pounds to over 100 pounds, and there's always an interesting dynamic at play. They initially think, "Once I lose the weight, getting dressed will be easy." But even after they hit the goal number on the scale, they find themselves in front of a closet full of clothes or a dressing room overflowing with options and still don't know what to wear.    The truth is that loving your body doesn't automatically create a wardrobe you love. Great style comes from understanding what makes you feel like the best version of yourself, regardless of your size.   So whether you're in the middle of a weight loss journey, feeling stuck at the end of it, or wondering whether you should wait until after you lose some weight to begin rebuilding your closet, I'm unpacking all the answers for you in today's episode.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective   Related Episodes: 329 – Why "It Fits" Doesn't Always Mean It's Flattering 196 – Body Image Boost: It's Not You...

    334 | 5 Questions to Ask Before Shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

    Do you want to hear a little secret? It's not so much of a "secret" as it is a very surprising fact about me. Despite my undying affinity for Nordstrom, I have never actually shopped during their annual Anniversary sale. Crazy, right? Please don't take my Nordy club card away from me!   But my clients were equally shocked to learn a few weeks ago that I'm not over setting alarms, building wish lists, and refreshing my browser the second the sale opens. I'm just over here buying what I need when I need it throughout the year.   Now, this week, I might browse. But if I do, I'm using the exact strategy I'm sharing with you today, because I have absolutely no interest in a giant cardboard box showing up on my doorstep delivering a whole lot of wardrobe regret. And I don't think you want that either.   So because the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has been buzzing around in our Her Style Collective chats over the past several weeks, you might also be wondering what you should buy, how to identify gaps in your wardrobe, and whether it's worth shopping this year…    I think the question you really want to know isn't "What's on sale?" It's "How can I be a smarter sale shopper?"   Whether you're getting ready to hunt the Nordstrom Sale, the clearance rack at Target, or your favorite thrift store, today's episode is for you. I'm going to map out some important questions to consider before you scoop up that irresistible sale item only to regret it every time you see it hanging in your closet with the tags still on.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective   Related Episodes: 319 – How to Tell If Something Will Actually Work In Your Wardrobe (Before You Buy It) 294 – Black Friday Trap or Smart Buy?

    333 | The Vacation Packing Mistake Almost Everyone Makes

    Recently, one of our Her Style Collective members was planning for a special birthday getaway. She had already mapped out a stunning travel capsule and our plan was to review it together during a 1:1 session, just to make sure she hadn't forgotten anything, that all of the pieces she chose worked well together, and to pinpoint any unnecessary duplicates, like too many tanks or an excessive number of shoes.    But the first question I asked her on the call changed everything.    It wasn't "what's on your itinerary for the weekend?" or "how does the weather look?" Although those details are important to think about, too. This question was something that almost everyone forgets to consider when they're packing.   So before you start laying out your clothes and overstuffing your suitcase in preparation for your next trip, I want to help you avoid the #1 packing mistake almost everyone makes. Keep listening and we'll make sure your next getaway is truly your best one yet!   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective JOIN MY FREE VIP EMAIL COMMUNITY: https://herstylellc.com/vip   Related Episodes: 214 – I Packed for My Vacation In 30-Minutes (With Zero Planning) and Here's How It Went 161 – Best Packing Practices for Worry-Free Travel 37 – How to Plan and Pack Your Next Travel Wardrobe

    332 | Help! Everything In Stores Looks Like It's For Someone Else

    Have you ever walked through a store and thought, "Wait. Who is this actually for?" It can feel like everything is made for someone else. Someone taller. Younger. Trendier. Maybe someone with a completely different body type or lifestyle than yours.   After a while, it's easy to start believing that fashion just isn't for you anymore, or that you'll have to settle for clothes you don't really love.   But before you give up on shopping altogether, I want to offer a different perspective. Because in today's episode, we're talking about why this happens, why shopping can start to feel so discouraging, and what to do when it feels like nothing in stores reflects your style. The goal is to help you build a wardrobe you actually love without lowering your standards or settling.   So don't give up, friend! We're about to make shopping way easier and more empowering than ever.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN THE WAITLIST FOR HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective   Related Episodes: 297 – The Women's Clothing Stores I'm Loving Right Now (and How to Find Your New Favorite Brands) 118 – Struggling with Negative Self-Talk?
