From Deadline Slump to Book Tour Glam: Inside Sally Hepworth’s Wardrobe

What does one of Australia’s biggest authors wear when she’s "in the vortex" finishing a bestseller? Spoiler: It involves Qantas pyjamas and skipped showers.

This week, Leigh is joined by the iconic author Sally Hepworth to pull back the curtain on her eclectic, effortless style. From her secret to scoring $38 vintage YSL on Depop to the reality of living with alopecia and how she matches her outfits to her "hair of the day," Sally is baring it all.

Plus, they discuss why the "Maybe Tub" is the ultimate decluttering hack you need to try immediately, and why a red lip is the only accessory required to look like you’ve got your life together.
