345 | Why You Should Stop Matching Everything to Your Color Palette
Her Style Podcast | Shopping, Color Palettes, Fashion, Wardrobe, Outfits, ClothingShow Notes
Knowing your best colors can make shopping so much easier. You can walk into a store, scan a rack, and have a pretty good idea of which colors are going to light you up... and which ones probably aren't worth your time.
But what happens when the color you're most excited about isn't one of your best?
Maybe it's a color you keep seeing everywhere this season. Or you spot something across the store and immediately think, "Ooh, I LOVE that." But then you remember your palette and you start second-guessing whether you should even try it on.
Does knowing your best colors mean you should stick to them all the time? And if you decide to break the rules, how do you know when it's actually worth it?
Because there are plenty of good reasons to wear a color that isn't in your palette. And by the end of this episode, you might even be ready to break a few color rules on purpose.

Well, I have a personal announcement to share with you today, and I have to admit, it's one I've been going back and forth about.
How do you know when something is actually missing from your wardrobe?
Welcome back to Her Style Podcast! Last week, I gave you one of my favorite questions to ask when you're considering something new, which is: Do I have a job for this in my wardrobe?
A few weeks ago, I shared my Fall 2026 Trend episode and walked you through some of the questions I use to decide whether a trend is actually worth trying. But now that fall shopping is underway, I want to take that conversation one step further. I'm starting to see which trends women are actually bringing home and wearing — and there are a handful that seem to be fitting into a lot of everyday wardrobes especially well. So today, I want to highlight five of those trends, discuss why I think they're proving to be so wearable, and give you one very simple way to figure out which of this season's trends might actually make your wardrobe more useful. Because sometimes the best trend for you isn't the one that catches your eye first. It's the one that solves a problem you already had.
Okay, I've gotta ask… You most likely read the title, "The Outfit I Wish Every Woman Had" before clicking play on this episode. What did you picture? A great pair of jeans and a fabulous top? A little black dress? The perfect, comfy but cute lounge set? Some magical combination of wardrobe basics that truly works for everyone?
