Finding Your Colour Palette

3/25/2024
About a year ago, Laura suggested getting Styled By Susie onto the podcast and Lauren was a bit unsure. Because when we hear the word stylist, we immediately think of someone who is going to tell us everything we can't wear. But Susie couldn't be more the opposite of that! In this episode, Susie tells us what colour are going to make our eyes POP and our skin glow and why finding your style means so much more than how our bodies look on the outside. We're so so grateful to Rune for sponsoring this episode. And we also got you guys a special discount code.

What on Earth is Going On???

3/11/2024
We had to call in Felicity Hayward to find out what the f**k is going on with plus size fashion. The rise of ozempic, the return of 90s fashion, the announcement of the 36 ASOS Insiders with almost no plus size representation. It's leaving us all feeling a bit flat.

Let's Talk About Money

"We're more comfortable talking about our intimate sex lives than we are talking about money." And that is why we're dedicating a full episode to money, finances, budgeting, debt... the lot of it. We are no experts (as you'll hear) so we invited along the fabulous Ellie from This Girl Talks Money, who guided us so wonderfully through the very complicated world of saving, treating ourselves and how to actually live our lives whilst still making savings. You can find Ellie here. And she's written a book which is your guide to all things financial wellbeing (basically, how to have a good time but still save).
