In this episode of Style POV’s Style Files series, I sit down with Lillian to talk about her journey from postpartum style confusion to a sense of grounded clarity. Previously, she was deep in online advice, surface-level color analysis, and style systems that promised answers but often created more noise. We talk about growing up, the impact of COVID, her first virtual analysis, and what it felt like to move through multiple systems while searching for harmony, formulas, and something that actually felt right.

Lillian shares how stepping back from social media, questioning rigid rules, and listening to her intuition changed everything. We dig into playful elegance as a personal style statement, building capsule wardrobes that truly work, and the moment when rules and intuition finally aligned. This conversation is honest, thoughtful, and deeply relatable for anyone who has felt torn between structure and creativity in their style.
