☀️ Summer time… but what on earth are you wearing to the office?

At the Legally Speaking Podcast ™️️, we don’t just talk about the legal job — we explore the full picture. From courtroom strategy to career pivots, personal branding to, yes, even your wardrobe. Because in 2025, smart casual isn’t just a dress code — it’s part of your professional identity.

That’s why I teamed up with the brilliant Lisa Gillbe, personal stylist to senior professionals and host of The Style Stories Podcast, to dig into a topic that doesn’t get nearly enough airtime:

What should lawyers really wear to work in 2025?

Here’s a taste of what we covered:

♦️ Why “smart casual” is harder to master than throwing on a suit
♦️ What your outfit says about you before you’ve even said a word
♦️ The wardrobe staples that help you look sharp and feel confident
♦️ Why your personal style matters more than ever in a post-pandemic legal world

One of my favourite takeaways from Lisa:

 "Looking as sharp as your mind isn’t vanity — it’s strategy."

So here’s a question — has the shift to smart casual made things easier or more confusing for you?

Let me know your thoughts. Or better yet, what’s your go-to work outfit in 2025?
