The Style Stories Podcast

Ready for some more Christmas party outfit inspiration!? Tune in to Part 2 of my Christmas special episodes. This time I was joined by the fabulous and very Christmassy Maxine from @dressedtothemax. She had some excellent ideas for outfits this festive season. We are keeping it simple but sparkly. Ideas for the Christmas Office Party, Neighbours drinks and Christmas Day itself.  I hope you enjoy this episode and get lots of inspiration.

Today I sat down with Keira from Scott-Samuel, a small accessories business here in the UK. We got festive and discussed our favourite party outfits, how it's great to still be casual but with a bit of sparkle, plus the hot trends of the season.  Last year we saw a lot of silver trousers around but this year there a few more trends out there. Not that you should dress 'trendy!' that's certainly not for everyone. We talked about how you can repurpose what you already own and what to wear if you don't really like dressing up at all.  Your Christmas party outfit inspiration is right here! This was a collaboration with Keira and I have styled FOUR looks over on my blog where you can shop directly. Fashion is visual after all! You can view some of the bags we talked about during this podcast over on my YouTube channel.    Follow Keira here on Instagram Shop Keira's accessories here.   Follow Lise the host on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/lisegillbestylist/?hl=en SHOP THIS PODCAST HERE! https://www.lisagillbestyle.com/blog/christmaspartyoutfitideaslisagillbe   Join Lisa's free FB Group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/stylepowerwithlisagillbe   #fashionpodcast #christmasoutfitspodcast #personalstyle

This episode goes deep into style confidence and finding your sense of self and style confidence.  Becoming comfortable in your own skin is a lifelong journey and it's harder for some people than others. The best thing you'll ever wear is confidence but what has that got to do with clothes? EVERYTHING. There are so many hidden emotional messages when it comes to your clothes. Are you holding back with your style because on some level you don't feel you deserve to look good? You don't want to be a show-off but this is tethered to worrying too much about what others think of us. Be who you truly are and not a version other people think you 'should' be.  This conversation runs beyond my area of expertise in fashion so I invited the confidence and mindset coach Kate Stirling on to The Style Stories podcast to discuss the link between confidence, clothes, truly being who we are - unapologetically and allowing ourselves to look good!  A fascinating chat that really explains clothes are so much more than just something you wear. We even touched on First Lady Style - how Hilary Clinton was the first USA First Lady to embrace looking good and how she got shot down for it.  Lots packed into today's episode - enjoy!    Connect with Kate here: https://www.instagram.com/katestirling_/ Or her membership platform: https://www.club-thrive.com/ Follow Lise on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/lisegillbestylist/ Sponsorship enquiries - sponsor this podcast and get your business known around the world email [email protected] Work with Lisa: https://www.lisagillbestyle.com/   #firstladystyle #confidence #fashion #stylepodcast #personalstyle
