Episode 243 - How to Wear Leather Trousers
Leather trousers divide opinion. Some women love them; others are convinced they’re destined to look cheap, uncomfortable or just too much. And I get it, leather done badly can tip into try-hard territory very quickly.
But styled well, leather trousers can be one of the most flattering, confidence-boosting pieces in your wardrobe.
In this episode I share my seven essential dos and don’ts to wearing leather trousers without looking tacky.

Start with appreciation, not criticismYour wardrobe reflects different seasons of your life. Instead of judging it, begin by appreciating what’s served you well and what still makes you feel confident.2. Focus on what already worksThe outfits you reach for most are giving you valuable clues about your personal style. When you understand what works, everything becomes easier.3. The shops are full, so there’s no rushThere’s no need to panic-buy or keep up with every trend. Shopping with clarity always feels better than shopping with pressure.4. Create calm with simple outfit formulasPositivity comes from reducing decisions. Go-to outfits and reliable combinations bring ease and confidence to everyday dressing.5. Dress for the woman you are nowYour wardrobe should support your current lifestyle, confidence and priorities, not who you used to be.Final thoughtA positive wardrobe reset doesn’t mean starting again.It means reconnecting with who you are now and creating clarity, confidence and ease through what you wear.If your wardrobe feels overwhelming, that’s often a sign you’ve evolved and it may simply need a fresh perspective.About the HostWorking with personal clients, Lisa is passionate to inspire & empower ambitious women to have a wardrobe that gives them the confidence & self belief to achieve & reach their goals whilst reflecting their personal brand.Lisa has contributed to editorials such as The Guardian, Times, Daily Mail, The Sun, Daily Express works as the Style expert for BBC & Heart Radio throughout the UK.
