I’ve been busy networking this week, Netwalking, Level Up Ladies, Real Businesswomen of North Herts and High Net Connect on the agenda, in St Albans and London, which I loved. I’ve connected with some incredible women, some new faces, and some who I’ve grown really close with over the last year. I feel very lucky to have found my tribes!
Would you like me to do some monthly shares of amazing small female led businesses?! Hit reply to let me know!?
I’ve also really enjoyed working with clients on colour analysis and wardrobe edits this week, and receiving some wonderful feedback about how empowered and uplifting these services have been. My unique colour analysis experience allows me to create something totally bespoke and unique to you that doesn’t sit you in a restrictive box! There is no one size fits all. I loved receiving the feedback above from this week’s client.? DM me with any questions, or book one of the packages on the link HERE
Sunday Style Scoop
I had so much fun this week fitting models for our upcoming Preloved Fashion Catwalk Show and Charity pop up event. I pulled together 3-4 looks for each model from my curated edit of pieces I’d chosen from Rennie Grove Peace Hospice charity shops.?
It was fantastic to get feedback from the models that they loved their outfits and were already adding pieces to their wish list to buy on the evening at our charity pop up shop.?
Many of them were really pushed out of their comfort zones with the colours, prints and shapes but surprised themselves with how much they loved my styling and combinations. They were also so pleasantly surprised with the incredible pieces you can find in your local charity shops.?
Don’t delay if you’d like to come and join us on Friday 7th June and take advantage of a curated edit of charity shop fashion to buy. We have already sold out once on the tickets and have the final few additional tickets remaining now! Book yours for just £10 on the link HERE…
Things I've Enjoyed This Week
If you’re struggling to feel confident in your own skin and in need of some tips to reignite your style and body confidence, this article is for you! I wrote a guest article all about my top 5 tips to Body Confidence for 'I'm Going To Count To Five' parenting magazine. This is one of the first things that I work on with my clients on my Luxe Style Formula, what is it that really holds you back from embracing all of who you are and the person you want to show up as? You'll find tips about embracing your shape, fit and body image.
If we buy less, we will buy better. I loved this podcast with Dr Carolyn Mair and Tiffanie Darke about why fashion is so important to us, and the choices that we can make to have both joy and sustainability. They discuss topics such as the Rule of 5 and why we behave in the way we do when buying fashion.?
