The School Runway

We're recapping a big couple of weeks on the School Runway. Bronagh's birthday turned out to be one for the books with a night away in London, cocktails at what might be the best Negroni bar in Soho, and a Queens of Archive leopard print coat that is, officially, her whole personality now.

Meanwhile Cara has gone fully down the Pokemon card rabbit hole, and we're looking back on the annual World Book Day chaos featuring a last-minute Captain Underpants costume, a bald cap and a lot of prayers. Boycie the Staffy puppy has also arrived and is already running the household. Dublin for St Patrick's Day is up next with spice bags, proper pubs and absolutely zero itinerary.

This week: Cara conquered a family pilgrimage to northern India (tigers included), and Bronagh conquered her first ski slope.

Cara and Bronagh are back with the kind of holiday debrief only they could deliver. Cara returned from a family pilgrimage to northern India — tigers, Taj Mahal, custom moonstone rings and all — while Bronagh survived (barely) her first ever family ski trip, complete with a chairlift meltdown and a very dignified crawl to the après-ski bar.

They also tackle your listener questions on how to style a white vest top for day-to-evening drinks, what to wear to a three-day UK wedding, and the impossible art of wardrobe organisation (spoiler: neither of them has cracked it).

Plus, a new puppy is incoming and leopard print accessories are involved.

If your FYP is full of millennial nostalgia content, you already know Helen — and if you don't, prepare to feel very, very seen.

Cara and Bronagh are joined by content creator and Deal or No Deal alumni Helen McPherson for an episode that went completely off-script in the best possible way.

Helen shares how a life-changing TV experience led her to ditch everything and start creating content — and within a year, go viral.

From denim skirt belts and viscose tops to dream matte mousse three shades too dark, the girls take a gloriously unfiltered trip back to their nights out, their beauty bag disasters, and the very specific experience of being a millennial who still doesn't feel like a grown-up.

Somehow they also cover Big Brother fight night, walk of shame outfits, and whether Helen should start a podcast (the answer is yes).

This episode is all about reassurance and relatability. From food battles to wardrobe wobbles, it is a reminder that you are not doing it wrong, you are just doing a lot.

Along the way, the girls dive into:
The packed lunch and dinner juggle, with realistic shortcuts that actually get eaten
Spring Summer 2026 fashion trends, including bright block colours, leopard print and how to try them without overthinking
Honest style advice for postpartum bodies and changing shapes, with confidence first
Comfort TV chats and why Call the Midwife hits differently when you are tired

With a balance of practical fashion chat and a quiet arm around the shoulder, this episode leaves you feeling reassured, understood and very much not alone.
