Has the heatwave completely caught you out when it comes to getting dressed? If you’ve stood in front of your wardrobe thinking, “I’ve no idea what to wear in this weather” — you’re definitely not alone. In this episode of Styling Matters, Lizzi chats honestly about the reality of summer style for women over 40, especially when a sudden spell of hot weather leaves us juggling spring layers, forgotten summer clothes and the feeling that we’ve somehow lost our style in the process.We’re talking intentional summer dressing, how to stay true to your style identity when it feels too hot for layering, what to wear to the office when it’s scorching outside but freezing under air conditioning, and how to still feel polished when working from home in a heatwave. Lizzi also shares why choosing three intentional style words for summer can make getting dressed feel easier, along with simple ways accessories can elevate even the coolest, most practical outfits.In this episode:• Why summer style can suddenly feel more difficult than every other season• How to choose three intentional words to guide your summer wardrobe• Heatwave office dressing: balancing hot weather with icy air conditioning• Working-from-home outfits that still feel polished on video calls• Easy ways to use accessories to add personality and interest to summer outfits• Why you haven’t lost your style — you just need to translate it for the seasonIf you loved this episode then do follow the show and share with your bestie.

What does style really mean after 40, when we’re no longer interested in keeping up with trends or endlessly consuming fashion?In this episode, I revisit some of the “ageless style rules” I once wrote about and explore how they feel different now through a midlife lens.This isn’t about dressing younger, following trends, or reinventing yourself. It’s a conversation about how style evolves as we evolve; through changing bodies, shifting identities, growing confidence, and a deeper understanding of what actually feels right for our lives now.We talk about:style after 40 and 50confidence and visibility in midlifedressing for changing body shape and proportionswhy good foundations still mattermodern denim and real-life dressinglayering, accessories, and colour without overwhelmsimplifying wardrobes and shopping more intentionallythe difference between style and performancefinding ease, clarity, and self-trust in the way we dressThis episode is for women who are tired of trend pressure, overwhelmed by fashion noise, and looking for a calmer, more intelligent approach to personal style in midlife.If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your wardrobe or simply from yourself - this conversation may help you reconnect with what style can look like now.Thank you for listening.If this episode resonated with you, you can continue the conversation over on Substack, where I share more reflections on style, midlife, confidence, and getting dressed in the real world.And if you enjoyed this episode, following the podcast really does help other women find these conversations too.I’ll see you next time.Styling Matters on SubstackLizzi Richardson on Instagram at @lizzi.richardson
