This week, we're switching things up a little... we've gone around the Mamamia office to find out exactly what fashion problems are keeping the team up at night. Tamara Holland and Lucinda Pikkat are answering them all.

Ever wondered where fashion people actually get their inspiration? Hint: It’s not just doom-scrolling Instagram. Tam and Lucinda are opening up their little black book of resources, from the app that acts like a "fashion bible" to the Substack newsletters that predict trends before they happen. We're getting into which undies work best under those tricky slip skirts and which shoes you could walk all day in that aren't just a pair of sneakers.

Lucinda's Budget: Havaiana's Slim Square Solid $44.99

Tam's Budget: Ceres Life Mila Short $59.99

Lucinda's Boujie: Angus The Label Ti Amo Silk Scarf $109.95

Tam's Boujie: Morrison Marnie Anglaise Shirt $299.00

When do ‘preventative’ injections cross the line and start making you look older? Can wearing a bra to bed really prevent sagging? And do you need to see a gynaecologist if you've never had sex?

In this episode, we speak to Consultant Dermatologist and Specialist Cosmetic Injector, Dr Cara McDonald to get the truth about anti-ageing, skincare ingredients and cosmetic procedures. She gives her expert rating (out of 10) for the most popular skincare ingredients - from your hyaluronic acids to your retinoids - and if they’re really that great in the fight against ageing.

We cover everything from why the operator is more important than the device, the dangers of over-filling and when removing all movement from your face can actually backfire…

Dr Mariam breaks down the serious risks of ‘cosmetic tourism’, the differences between a ‘Plastic Surgeon’ and ‘cosmetic surgeon’ and how to identify a properly credentialed practitioner.

Plus, we settle the "to bra in bed or not to bra in bed" debate, and whether it has any proven impact on sagging.

And, in our quick consult, Dr Mariam answers a listener’s question about whether you still need to see that doctor if you've never done the deed.

We've all been there: you walk into a vintage store, feel instantly overwhelmed by the "dress uppy" costumes and confusing eras, and leave with nothing. This week, Leigh is talking to vintage expert Tara Rowe, owner of the viral vintage wedding dress store Call Me The Breeze, about how to actually succeed at secondhand shopping.

Tara explains why the secret isn't thrifting (which involves rummaging), but finding curated resellers who act as your personal "conduit" for the good stuff. She shares her tips for finding sellers who match your niche, why 90s fashion is the most in-demand era, and why there’s nothing cooler than saying "Oh, this? It's vintage."

EVERYTHING MENTIONED:

Leigh's Boujie: Vintage Gold Event Dress

Tara's Boujie: Love Well Sourced

Leigh's Budget: Vintage White Blouse

Tara's Budget: Dillon Store
