As I gather the pieces together for my spring wardrobe, I have been pondering some key questions with regard to wardrobe. In today's video we are going to look at these important questions to consider.
How would you dress if you faced no limitations? Many people wish to dress a certain way but place limitations on themselves, and end up settling for "no style" by wearing workout clothing everyday. How would you dress if those limitations didn't exist?
What is a style you've been longing to try? Similarly, many people long to try a specific style (like dresses or jumpsuits) but avoid doing so based on a certain issue. With jumpsuits, for example, many people use the "bathroom conundrum" as a reason to not try out the style. Some women avoid dresses so as not to draw too much attention to themselves. What if you tried a style you're longing to try this season? What would happen?
What colors do you feel beautiful in? Do you tend to get compliments when you wear a certain color? Try to wear that color more this spring – not to get more compliments, but because the origin of those compliments most likely arises from the flattering color of the garment.
What is your plan for accessories? I'm guessing you have some accessories in your wardrobe that you don't often wear. Go through your accessories and decide to wear them or toss them this season.
Does your wardrobe tell a story? If no, what story would you like it to tell? The next time you walk into a chic small boutique notice how all of the clothing is curated to tell a story. Everything seems to go with everything else. This doesn't mean that all of the pieces are matchy-matchy, but that they tell a style story. You can achieve that with your wardrobe too.

Dressing Your Truth addresses all of these issues. It's about energy profiling. When you discover what type you are, you understand why you're drawn to certain colors or jewelry (substantial or dainty), and they have color cards for each of the four types. They tell you exactly what hairstyles, makeup, colors, clothing lines and jewelry looks good on you. There are a lot of free videos, and more info if you pay monthly or for a whole year. I love that it's not just about colors. It's about who you are and what type of energy you have. Whether you're more still, bold and striking, or beautiful, soft and quiet, or energetic, rich and dynamic, or bubbly and light. Finally everything makes sense and I know what to shop for now after years of trying to copy other beautiful women and failing to look good in what they looked good in.
ReplyDeleteYou might like Kettlewell for their beautiful colorful pieces.
