If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in an endless activewear rut, intimidated by internet size guides, or wondering where to shop in mid-life without feeling like a fashion victim, this is your ultimate guide. This week, Leigh is joined by Fashion Editor and digital style pro Marisa Remond bringing her best mid-range, mid-life, mid-priced fashion and online shopping advice.

Leigh sits down with Marisa to unpack the best hidden-gem international brands available in Australia, how to search by fabric composition to filter out cheap polyester, and the low-risk sizing trick that will completely change how you order online. Plus, they discuss how to build chic, practical wardrobe foundations and how to touch on current trends without overspending.

Then, Boujie to Budget, where Marisa has brought game-changing elevated elastic-waist pants that will replace your daily leggings, and Leigh brings three bright pops of cobalt blue to elevate your outerwear collection.
