Styling Matters with Lizzi Richardson

In this episode, I’m talking through my 2026 style reset - the 7 things I’m not wearing anymore and why.
This isn’t about trend-policing or declaring anything “out.” It’s about being more intentional with my wardrobe, understanding what actually works for my lifestyle now, and letting go of pieces that no longer feel modern, flattering or useful.
From jumpsuits and chunky trainers to cropped jeans and cheap faux-leather leggings, I’m sharing what I’m leaving behind as I head into 2026.
If you’re rethinking your personal style, editing your wardrobe, or just feeling a bit bored of getting dressed, this episode is for you honey!

How do you stay stylish in winter without sacrificing warmth or practicality?
In this episode of Styling Matters, I’m sharing a considered approach to dressing well in cold weather - even when commuting, long days and freezing temperatures are part of everyday life. From smart footwear swaps to the power of accessories and tonal dressing, this episode focuses on simple styling decisions that help winter outfits feel polished, intentional and effortlessly put together.
In this episode, I cover:
How to dress practically for commuting, then elevate your look with heeled boots once you arrive

Why building a rotation of winter accessories - scarves, hats and gloves - instantly refreshes your outfits

The value of having a varied coat collection to see you through the long winter months

How tonal dressing can make even the most practical outfit feel chic and considered

As a digital style editor, Styling Matters exists to make everyday styling feel easier and more intuitive. I share thoughtful, wearable advice designed to help you balance real life with a desire to feel stylish; without overcomplicating your wardrobe.
My focus is on practical solutions, editorial insight and guiding you towards a winter wardrobe that works harder for you, all season long.
