The "Heart Flutter" Formula for Your Wardrobe - Wear What Excites you

The Heart Flutter Wardrobe Formula

Lisa Gillbe introduces a personal styling framework for rebuilding a wardrobe that feels exciting, not stressful. Drawing on 16 years as a London stylist, she explains why so many wardrobes end up full of “just in case” pieces and how to reconnect with what actually makes getting dressed feel good. In this solo episode, Lisa focuses on one central idea: your clothes should create that small spark of recognition and confidence when you look in the mirror. The episode is about tuning out wardrobe noise and finding a clearer, more joyful way to dress.
