307 | The 'Almost Right' Outfit Problem: When Every Look You Try Feels 80% There

2026-01-1513:38

Have you ever envisioned an outfit in your head that made you feel so excited to get dressed? Maybe you're inspired by an influencer or you thought of a new combination for your pieces. You know the vibe you're going for, how you're going to accessorize, and you put everything on thinking, "Yes. This is going to look amazing." And then you look in the mirror… And somehow, it does NOT look right. It might not be the worst outfit you've ever worn or even bad, but it's just not what you imagined — and you can't quite put your finger on why. So you start adjusting, right? You change your shoes, add a layer, take the layer off, try switching your handbag, maybe throw on a different pant, and then put the original shoes back on again. And at some point you just stand there thinking, "Okay, why can't I bring this together? This was supposed to be easy!" That's what we call the "almost right" outfit problem. If you've ever felt stuck there — if you've been eager to wear something, put in effort to look your best, and still walked out the door feeling like something was missing — this episode is for you. We're going to break down why getting dressed often feels harder than it should, why copying other people's outfits doesn't work 99% of the time, and the surprising reason why the "almost right" outfit problem is actually really good news. I can't wait to unpack all of this with you today. Let's dive in.

306 | Why Your Closet Feels Random (Even If You Love Everything In It)

2026-01-1214:30

If someone took every single piece of clothing you own and laid it all out in front of you, could you explain how it's supposed to work together? Not where you bought it or why you loved it in the moment — but how those pieces actually connect. How they build outfits. How they support your real life: workdays, weekends, errands, dinners, all of it. Because this is where so many women get stuck — not because they have bad clothes, not because they shop too much, and definitely not because they don't "have style," but because there's no system holding their wardrobe together. Most women I work with have truly great taste. They know what they like or at least, it doesn't take us too much effort to figure that out. They can spot a beautiful piece from a mile away. And yet, getting dressed still feels frustrating, time-consuming, or oddly disappointing. Not because the clothes are wrong — but because they were never taught how to make their wardrobe work as a whole. So if you've ever looked at your closet and thought, "Why does this feel harder than it should?" This episode is going to help things finally click into place. Because today we're talking about why your closet can feel random — even when you love what's in it — and how a little clarity completely changes how it all comes together.

305 | January Q&A: The Two Style Skills Most Women Are Never Taught (Color & Shoes)

2026-01-0821:28

It's our first Q&A episode of the year! This one's going to be short and sweet, because I only received two questions since our last one at the beginning of December. I'm sure you had just a few other things going on over there over the past month or so. But let me know if we should keep these going regularly, the first Thursday of each month, or if I should just toss them out at random times after we accumulate a bigger handful of Q's. This show is yours, so as always, let me know what serves you best. And now I'll offer up a little teaser of what's in store for you today. I'm about to unpack two deceptively simple questions that actually get to the heart of why so many women feel frustrated with their closets: First — is it actually harder to build a cohesive wardrobe if your best colors are bright or dark? And how do you actually know which shoes work with different pant and skirt lengths — without memorizing a million rules? These questions might sound niche, but the answers will completely change how you think about color, proportion, and why some outfits instantly feel right while others don't.

304 | Is Your Style Holding You Back? The Subtle Ways It Shrinks Your Confidence

2026-01-0515:37

Have you ever noticed how on the days you don't feel great in what you're wearing… you're just a little quieter? You still show up. You still do the thing. But you're not quite as sharp, as bold, or as expressive as you know you can be. You don't raise your hand as fast. You don't hit "post" as confidently. You don't walk into the room like, "Yep. I belong here." And what's wild is — we almost never connect that back to our clothes. We tell ourselves we're just tired… distracted… not in the mood… "off" today. But what if your style is playing a much bigger role than you think? That's what we're talking about today — not fashion trends or shopping lists — but the subtle ways your style might be quietly holding you back… and exactly what to do about it.

303 | 3 Things to Do Now for a More Stylish 2026

2025-12-2913:35

You're probably hearing a lot of "New Year, new you" messaging right now. And if that's making you feel pressured to get your style together at lightning speed, I want you to pause — before you start ransacking your wardrobe. Because if 2026 is going to be the year you finally feel confident in your clothes, it's not going to happen because you bought better pieces, tried harder, or followed more trends. Your style doesn't get better when you rush into change. It gets better when you slow down long enough to get clear. Today, I'm sharing the three things to pause and do right now — before you shop and before you try to reinvent yourself — so your wardrobe feels lighter, more cohesive, and more like you next year. THIS is how you make 2026 your most stylish year yet.

302 | Gratitude, Great Style, and This Week's Giveaway Winners

2025-12-2513:52

Merry Christmas, my friend! I wanted to keep today's episode simple. Not only because I'm not feeling 100% as you may hear in my voice, but because in the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, I think we could all use a little break. So today, there's no teaching, no fixing, no pressure to set plans or goals — just a moment to pause together. I've been thinking a lot about how hard we can be on our closets, how quickly frustration shows up when we look at what we own and feel like it should be better by now. But our closets usually reflect our lives, and most of us have been navigating a lot. So today feels like a good day to acknowledge that what we've worn has likely been doing exactly what it needed to do for the season we were in. Even if you're excited to change things up in the new year — and I am too! — there's value in appreciating what's already supported you along the way. And that's what this conversation is going to be all about… FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN HER STYLE COLLECTIVE: https://herstylellc.com/collective Related Episodes: 300 – 300 Episodes, 500K Downloads, and a Holiday Giveaway Just for You! 223 – Shop Your Closet: How to Fall Back in Love with What You Already Own 78 – What I Learned From My 38-Year Struggle with Contentment

301 | 5 Style Shifts That Changed Everything for Me and My Clients This Year

2025-12-2215:46

As I was reflecting on this year — on the coaching calls, the email exchanges, the closets I've seen, the breakthroughs I've watched happen — I realized something powerful. I don't just have the opportunity to work with people on their style. I get a front-row seat to pick up on the patterns. And when you work with hundreds of women across different seasons of life, various budgets, body types, personalities… you start to see what actually moves the needle across the board… and what really doesn't. Today, I want to walk you through five style shifts that have changed EVERYTHING for my clients and me this year. These are perspective upgrades — the kinds of shifts that quietly change how you get dressed, how confident you feel, and how much mental energy your wardrobe takes up in your day. They're powerful and empowering and I want you to benefit from all that we've learned this year as well. So let's discuss a handful of mindset swaps that will not only transform your confidence, but how you think about your style from here on out!

299 | Live Style Coaching: Shopping Less, Diversifying Your Wardrobe, and Defining Your Personal Style

2025-12-1535:20

If you've ever wondered what actually happens inside my group coaching calls — what women really ask, how specific the advice gets, and what it sounds like when we take your everyday style struggles and turn them into clear, doable next steps — today's episode is going to give you a front-row seat. Because this is a live Q&A segment pulled straight from a real HER Style Collective coaching call. We're talking about the kinds of questions that pop up when you're standing in your closet, scrolling your phone, or hovering over the "checkout" button… Like how to actually stop impulse shopping, how to avoid outfit repetition, defining your personal style, and whether you can wear pure white in a way that still looks flattering even if it's technically not your "best" color. This is the kind of personalized, nuanced guidance you don't get from a trend report or a quick tip on Instagram. It's coaching that helps you think differently about your wardrobe, so getting dressed feels easier, smarter, and more aligned with your unique life and goals. If you want in-depth coaching from me just like this every single week, you can join us inside HER Style Collective today at herstylellc.com/collective.

297 | The Women's Clothing Stores I'm Loving Right Now (and How to Find Your New Favorite Brands)

2025-12-0820:44

Today, we're talking about something almost every woman struggles with but rarely stops to question: Where are you actually shopping… and is it still serving you? If getting dressed feels boring, your wardrobe feels outdated, or you keep leaving stores and websites feeling disappointed, chances are it's not because you don't know how to shop. It's because you've been shopping the same 2–3 places forever — even though your body, lifestyle, tastes, and goals have changed. So today, I'm sharing the women's clothing stores I'm loving right now, PLUS the exact method I use to help my clients (and myself!) find brands that actually work for them. By the end of this episode, you're going to know how to discover your new favorite brands — the ones that fit your body, your lifestyle, your budget, and your personal aesthetic so much better than the default stores you've been relying on.

2025-11-1714:48

If your size has been all over the place lately — maybe nothing seems to fit quite right, your jeans feel different from week to week, and getting dressed has turned into this emotional rollercoaster…First, I want you to take a deep breath. You don't need to overhaul your wardrobe every few months or wait until your body "stabilizes" to start feeling good again. The real reason you're frustrated isn't that your size keeps changing — it's that your closet isn't set up for it. It's not built to support the natural ups and downs that every woman's body goes through. So today, I want to help you shift the way you think about your clothes, your body, and your confidence—so that no matter what's happening with your shape or the scale, you can still feel pulled together and at peace when you get dressed. Because the goal isn't to chase a size — it's to build a closet that meets you right where you are and makes you feel amazing every day, no matter what.

290 | Impulse Buying vs. Smart Investing: How to Shop With Strategy and Clarity

2025-11-1320:06

Today's episode is a vulnerable one because I'm not talking about something I've always been great at. I'm talking about something that used to have me completely trapped: impulse shopping. And I don't mean snagging an extra lip gloss on your way to the checkout counter at Sephora. I'm talking about emotional spending — those quick "add to cart" moments that promise to boost your confidence but never quite deliver. The one-off purchases for a party or event that don't go with anything else in your closet. The "almost right" pieces you talk yourself into, only to regret later. The sale finds that seemed too good to pass up but never make it into your regular rotation. You tell yourself you'll wear them eventually, but deep down, you know you won't. And instead of feeling more confident, you're left with more clutter, more guilt, and that same sinking feeling every time you open your closet. I know how hard that cycle can feel because I've lived it. And if I can break it, you absolutely can, too. If you're tired of wasting money on clothes you don't wear, this episode will help you understand what's really going on behind those impulse buys. And by the end of this conversation, you'll know what you need to do to shop with strategy, confidence, and clarity—so you can finally have a well-curated wardrobe that works, open your closet and see only "yes" pieces, and get ready for your day in five minutes flat. This is the episode I wish I'd heard 20 years ago. But it's never too late to break the cycles that aren't serving you. Let's make today a defining moment in your style journey and start making smart investments to build a wardrobe you love.

But these episodes are some of my favorites because I get to hear directly from you — your questions, your challenges, and your real-life style needs. Today, we're covering an exciting variety of topics, including how to stay motivated to dress your best consistently (the perfect continuation to our last episode), how to track down low heels that are comfortable, affordable, and stylish enough to wear to work — especially for teachers who are on their feet all day, and how to make a classic style vision work for a body type that doesn't fit the tall, slim mold we often see on Pinterest and social media. As always, my goal is to give you practical, actionable advice you can use right away. So let's go ahead and dive right into our November Q&A!

When it comes to finding great footwear and clothing, it’s so helpful to hear from others who have been there and done that. I’ve had a pretty positive experience shopping for sports apparel and fan gear through various online stores. One place that I’ve found particularly reliable is mlb shop https://mlb-shop.pissedconsumer.com/review.html I’ve picked up some cool items from them, and the quality has been consistent. It’s always nice to know you’re getting what you pay for. If you’re looking for a spot that offers a wide selection and decent service, checking out some MLB Shop reviews might be worth your time.
