You’re Saving Your Style for a Life You’re Not Living
Hello, you! You have clothes you never wear. Not because they don’t fit, not because you don’t like them. You don’t wear them because you’re waiting. (I’ve been there.) You’re waiting for the right moment, the right body, the right event; some future version of yourself that will arrive complete and finally deserve the things you’ve already chosen. What you don’t realize is that, while you wait, you’re not standing still. You’re moving away. … and suddenly we’re not talking about clothes. We’re talking about identity. Because wardrobes are rarely just wardrobes. They’re more like little archives of our past selves. The jacket that stays on the hanger, the shoes…

Be You! : Fashion and the Herd Effect
Hello You! In the search for belonging, many people end up following the “herd effect,” adopting fashion trends simply because they are popular. However, fashion should be a unique expression of who you are. As Coco Chanel said, “Fashions fade, style remains.” This personal style is what sets you apart from others, and not every popular trend needs to be in your wardrobe. The herd effect refers to the phenomenon in which individuals imitate the actions of a group, often ignoring their own preferences and individuality. In fashion, this can mean adopting pieces or styles that, while modern, don’t reflect your essence or flatter your body type. A classic example…

Finding Your Soul Style
Hello You! The art of living is not just about our ability to survive and meet our daily needs. Living is also an expression of who we are, our passions, our dreams and, of course, our style. We often hear the phrase “living with style”, but what does that really mean? And how does it apply to our daily lives? We all have a unique personality that is reflected in our daily choices, from the music we listen to to the food we eat. And fashion is no different. Your personal style is an extension of who you are, and finding and embracing it can be an empowering and revealing…

Six Limiting Beliefs About Style You Should Ignore
Hello You! I was recently thinking about all the fashion “rules” that exist and how they can limit our ability to step into our true style. I generally disregard the fashion dos and don’ts, unless they apply to fit and proportion, but for those who still think you have to abide by those outdated and arbitrary ideas, it’s time to rethink things. Below are six outdated fashion myths we’ve been led to believe, and ways you can do things differently. 1.“You’re too old to be fashionable and stylish” Great style is attainable at any age. Look at style icon like Iris Apfel! She was over 100 and was killin’ the…

Denim On Denim!
Hello You! These days, it seems like denim washes, fits, and rises cycle through periods of popularity every week rather than every decade. (Remember actual trend cycles? Me neither 😉 Because of that, reporting on such changes in the jeans space can, at times, feel repetitive. I’m not going to do that. Instead, I’ve chosen to focus my time and energy on the ways that chic people are wearing their jeans as opposed to the types of jeans they’re wearing. Denim pieces, depending on the quality, can last a lifetime, so invest in jackets, pants, shorts and shirts that will last a long time and that will certainly complement your outfits. Plus, combining them into complete denim looks is…

If You Want to Improve Your Style, Give It a Name
Hello You! It may sound funny, but the truth is that the quest to improve your style and make it more authentic doesn’t start with the clothes you wear, but with a full and enlightened perception of who you are or the things you like. We confuse fashion consumption with style, and perhaps that’s exactly why we’re dissatisfied with what we wear. Our dream is for someone to give us the protagonist’s “makeover,” take us shopping, and change our entire wardrobe (hello, “The Princess Diaries”!). But what about when Mia needs to buy something for herself? Will she really know how to continue this revolution that was created solely from…
