Mamamia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the Land we have recorded this podcast on, the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.

The show that knows the right outfit has the power to transform your mood and your confidence. Hosted by Mamamia’s Leigh Campbell and the style collective, women of all shapes, ages and styles will help you figure out what to buy, how to wear it and how to feel great in it. No topic is off limits. If you can wear it, we will talk about it.
