Mix and Match Wardrobe for Her

I am so excited as this month the Fitness First Magazine Australia has published a Style Angel article in conjunction with Suellen from Transforme and I wanted to share a few snippets with you. If you would like a copy of the article printed from the Fitness First Magazine just click here.

TIPS FOR HER

Get out of the cycle of wearing 20 per cent of your wardrobe 80 per cent of the time, by ‘shopping in your own wardrobe’ before hitting the shops. This way you’ll find out what works and what doesn’t, to help you determine what’s missing and what needs replacing.

 

Think about your lifestyle and choose your core pieces accordingly. For example, if you have a corporate job and an often-busy social life with dinner and drinks out, you should choose dressier tops, pants, shoes and accessories. If, however, your social life revolves more around the home and kids with casual get-togethers, you should choose more casual core pieces that are comfortable and easy.

 

Accessorising

Accessories are the key to making your core pieces work on every occasion. Invest about 30 per cent of your shopping budget in accessories like bags, shoes, jewellery and scarves. Choose pieces for both day and evening, so you are ready for any event. Remember, the more trans-seasonal your wardrobe, the more wear you will get out of all of your pieces. Use layers, cardigans, tights and scarves to make it work.

 

What core pieces do you really need?
Keep in mind that quality materials will stand the test of time. Colours and fabrics that work well together will create an abundance of outfits and remember that less is often more! here are some suggestions:
1. Classic well cut pair of pin-stripe bootleg pants in charcoal or black
2. straight skirt black or charcoal pinstripe 

3. A pair of pants in dark denim or other dark finish and bootleg cut.
4. four classic work shirts in neutral colours that suit you.
5. two dressy tops for going out. A satin and chiffon finish instantly creates the dressy look
6. One LBD
7. two casual tops or t-shirts
8. A black jacket with one or two buttons and well tailored to suit your shape
9. A cardigan
10. One winter coat

 

Now believe it or not, with just these 15 items, by adding in appropriate accessories or other clothing items (e.g., belts, scarves, shoes, singlets, stockings) you can create over 85 different outfits appropriate for the office, social, casual and evening events!

Now you have the basics, here are the Mix and Match essentials to pull it all together:

• A great quality wide belt worn around your waist over a dress or on a straight skirt with your shirt or cardigan tucked in.
• Pashmina scarves in colours you love, easy to fit in your bag and great to keep you warm when you are on the town.
• A pair of high quality Opaque stockings with a nice pattern, great to wear with your stilettos or boots under a skirt, or casually with a pair of flats and a casual skirt.
• A pair of great black boots that fit well around the calves and look great under dress pants, over or under jeans and under skirts. A pointier toe will make your feet look longer and a round toe will make your feet look smaller.
• A great pair of black flats; round toe, pointed, embellishments, pick your favorite and you won’t take them off. Also great to wear to and from work to protect your feet and back as an alternative to the ugly sneaker-under-pants look)
• At least one pair of heels for work and one for going out. Pick your favorite and make sure they are comfortable to walk in. No need for pain in times of pleasure.
• Singlets with a great neckline to wear under your tops and shirts to create a contrast or different neckline and yet another look. Choose great colours you know will fit all shirts and cardigans
• Accessories that you love, find great colours and interesting pieces that suit Your Look. Great to find pieces on trips away to remember the great times when you are back.
• Handbags to suit your Life Styles, at least one day bag and night bag is essential. Bags will last a while so pick great classic colours like black, tan and purple to get maximum Mix and Match benefits)
• Your signature Perfume (Style Tip; spraying perfume in your neck can cause extra sun damage and might stain your necklace. Good application spots are decollate, inside of the elbow and inside of the knees)

Here is How do you pull off the Day to Night Look effortlessly....

1. Kick off your shoes and replace them with a nice pair of patent peep-toe stilettos
2. Replace your shirt with a fitted top in a nice Satin or Chiffon in a great colour
3. Wear your pinstripe work pants, your nice jeans or a sexy black straight skirt 
4. Change your day jewellery with some sparklers in your neck and ears
5. Touch up your make up and use a little more eye pencil to create a smokey look and add a little lipgloss to your favorite lipstick shade for luscious lips
6. Change over your handbag to a handheld clutch to fit your essentials.
7. Grab your pashmina, add a touch of your favorite perfume and you will be ready to hit the town in style.

Here are some Mix and Match Basics to get you in the mood!

Cost Per Wear - Easy Steps to get More wear out of your Wardrobe!

 
It is a tempting time at the shops at the moment as on one side you will have great discounts of 30-50% off last season's stock and on the other side the new looks for Spring. Great timing to have a good look at your current wardrobe to analyse what the "Cost per Wear" is of the items in your wardrobe.

As a Fashion Stylist I regularly see overflowing wardrobes (both Women's and Men's) and my Clients still have a feeling of "I have nothing to Wear" every day. Sounds Familiar...?

Well there are a few Easy steps to take and some of my secrets I share with my Clients during my consultations:

1.    Go through your Wardrobe every 3-4 months, you will be juiced about items you have not seen for a while. In the April newsletter I have shared tips on how I do this for my clients. Just click here to get the Style Angel insights

2.     A crucial rule in acquiring a wardrobe of great looking, useful and cost effective clothes is to consider what you need and how much to spend, both annually and on each item. Rarely do we stop to think of what our clothes are really costing us to wear. Commonly inexpensive items can be found to be expensive if worn infrequently, while expensive garments can be found to be inexpensive if they are worn often.

Before purchasing another garment take the time to study this Cost per Wear Formula.

Nicole Ritchie's Rules of Style in Harper's Bazaar August Edition

For me reading a Magazine like Harper's Bazaar, Madison or InStyle is one of the MOST enjoyable moments for me. I look at face shapes, body shapes, colours, hair, makeup and what is happening on the catwalks all over the world and a zillion of nice gift ideas. Not that I am necessarily a Designer Label girl, but I do get inspired and for me the Magazines become a hugely creative outlet. I fold corners, rip pages out, create dream posters... not a single page is unturned or unread

My husband Sal has caught on to my passion and he often gives me a subscription to one of the above Mags for Xmas, birthday, mother's day etc. Not a bad idea Guys out there looking for a unique gift as every month I wait in anticipation for the newest editions to come in letter box and I am grateful yet again for a gift given to me ages ago. Sal calls it the "Gift that Keeps on Giving"...

Last night I had a bliss moment as I was reading the latest Harper's Bazaar and I stumbled upon Nicole Ritchie's Rules of Style. Nicole has come a long way developping her sense of Style and it was great to read that all the things I talk about with my clients, on my website and in my blogs were exactly the same.

Here is what Nicole Ritchie said!

1. "Always dress to fit your body. You have to figure out what looks good on you as opposed to just what is in style.
2.  Always accessorise when wearing jeans and t-shirts. You can wear the same outfit over and over and over, but with different accessories.
3. Don't be afraid to wear evening shoes during the day. They add flari to any nine-to-five outfit.
4. When you find the perfect pair of jeans buy 10 pairs. It doesn's happen that often.
5. Always do what makes you happy when it comes to your style. Don't pay too much attention to what other people say.
6. Alway dress for comfort. it is obvious when you don't."

All I can say You Go Girl!! You can be a Style Angel any day!

The Art of Accessorising - Quick Tips for Her and Him

Accessorising is the quickest way of really getting value out of your wardrobe as you can make the same outfit look totally different just by wearing a different necklace, shoes and handbag and for guys a tie, cufflinks.

Accessorising can change your mood and you can be certain that it brings in the compliments as people notice the effort.

By choosing the right pieces that really make your eyes stand out, suit your face shape and are in harmony with your proportions you are on to a flying start to looking great!  

Quick Tips for Her:

 

Accessory Magic by Diva

Diva Accessories has been kind enough to lend me a few pieces from their '09 Winter collection for my upcoming Workshops and Styling bookings.

It is a great idea to set aside at least 30% of your budget just for accessories which can range from the pieces below to tights, bags, shoes etc etc. You will make use of the basics in your wardrobe and really get a mix and match happen!

Just great to play with all the different colours and I wanted to share a few of the pieces with you to talk about Colours that would enhance your hair, skin and eyes, Shapes that work for your face and body shape.

This necklace is great for an Oblong Face Shape and best on Cooler Colour Seasons with any shade of Blue, Grey, Coffee, Deep camel, Warm Brown and Jet Black in their eyes. This colour accessory will look great on Medium to Dark Brown and Brown/Black Hair.

Looking for some Great Accessories check out Sportscraft's Winter Range In Stores

In my 9 years experience as a Personal Stylist in Sydney I have shopped with over 1000 women from all walks of life, body shapes and colour seasons, dress sizes, life styles and personalities. Have a look at what my clients said about their experiences!

Sportscraft is often a favorite brand for my clients for its range of staples in their lines. In winter you will always find a great cardigan and in summer a nice top to go with good shorts.

This winter I have watched their accessory range and I am excited. Below you will find a snap shot of their winter collection which you will find in the Sportcraft store closest to you. 

Handbags

 

The black one is in a patent leather finish which I personally love but my stand out this winter is the Purple bag in the middle. Nice soft leather, great versatile colours (Purple and beige are universal colours that suits everyone). They don't last long in the shops so go and check it out.

Scarves

Scarves are great to keep warm but also a great way to dress up a winter jacket, cardigan or t-shirt.
Often ladies have chosen a black jacket for winter whilst this is not necessarily their best colour so choosing a Purple, Navy, Off-white or Burgundy is a save bet.  I will make some comments on the warmer orange tones and the very cool light grey as they may not suit every one.
