    Corporate Style Makeover Transformation

    Giuliana had a big smile on her face at the end of our Style Makeover. She recognised the need to update her style and align it to her personal and career goals, especially after stepping into one of the senior executive roles.

    After carefully examining Giuliana’s style requirements and understanding her lifestyle and work commitments, we started with a Wardrobe Detox session.

    Wardrobe Detox is always a great way to start and review existing clothing, understand what needs to stay or be replaced, based on her age, body shape, colouring, lifestyle, personality, status, goals, likes, and dislikes. We also ensured Giuliana saved money by making the best out of her existing wardrobe before investing in new clothes. We identified missing pieces for her future shopping and compiled a personalised list of essential must-buy items to pull her wardrobe together and bring her image up-to-date.

    After weeding out clothes which does not serve Giuliana, as well as her new style and where she wants to be in life, we proceeded to stores, with a list of purchases, required to replace old and add new items missing from her wardrobe.

    Giuliana’s style makeover proceeded with a make-up session showing her the colours that suit her and techniques to use to enhance her facial features to the maximum. We then proceeded with the hair transformation, a new fresh haircut, for a totally rejuvenated look.

    Once Giuliana’s grooming transformation was complete I took her on an exciting shopping tour, where preselected and handpicked outfits were already waiting for her just to try on, for a truly remarkable experience.

    As a result, Giuliana revealed her full potential and how fabulous she can look at any time.

    She also now:

    • Know how to enhance her best facial features

    • Discovered the colours and shades that suit her

    • Learned about best hairstyle for her

    • Learned styles and lengths that suit her body shape

    • Learned how to mix and match colours and clothes

    • How to put together and purchase complete, flattering outfits that would bring her from day to night and also from one season to the next

    • How to use accessories to alter outfits (i.e. smart move to refresh an outfit / make it new)

    • Know how to emphasize her best assets, look sexy and still be comfortable in the clothes she wears

    • Learned how to shop effectively and productively at the right stores for her

    • Gained greater confidence and a new stylish look

    Hear what Giuliana says about her Style Makeover experience with Style-And-You HERE:

    I really enjoyed creating this Corporate Look for a modern and confident woman.

    The clothing can influence how a woman feels. When it comes to her confidence, sometimes the right outfit can work as a suit of armor to give you that extra boost you need to not just look the part, but to feel it too, and carry yourself accordingly. The purpose of putting on a ‘strong’ outfit is to help you feel your personal best.

    We are so delighted with Giuliana’s transformation and happy to be of service to many other women, who want to unlock the power of personal style.

  • How To Avoid Bra-Blems?

    How To Avoid Bra-Blems?

     

    measuring tape

    All women know, it can be super frustrating having bra-blems. And I think all of us (women) can agree that these issues can make you want to rip off your bra the moment you walk in the door at the end of a long day! Sound familiar?

    Well, no more! I would like to share with you few simple and easy fixes that would make you to fall in love with your bra again! click here for tips

    “If you want to know what style of breasts you have, check Breast Shape Dictionary (see Fit Guide section) at ThirdLove to find a best bra style just for you! Also check out their great bra collections once you know the style that works best for you!”

    Apparently 80% of women wear a wrong bra size according to Journal of Chiropractic and Osteopathy. I often get asked ‘How often should I get refit?’. The answer is once a year, because we are women, and our bodies change all of the time. Lots of things affect your bra size: pregnancy, weight gain and loss, holiday eating, stress, illness, medications, hormonal shifts, menopause… the list is long!

    So if you have not measured yourself this year it is a perfect time to do so. Don’t be surprised if your bra size is not what you thought, as I mentioned lots of women wear a wrong size bra. You may even be in between sizes and choose a ½ size cup for your closest fit.

    Wearing the right bra size does wonders for your figure, helps you feel more comfortable and confident and it’s best for your breast health and posture too!

  • We are not rich to buy cheap – Personal Stylist Sydney

    Are you tired of your clothes not lasting through a single season? Do you burn a hole through your credit card with online ‘bargains’, only to find that when they arrive, they are poorly made and misshapen after one wear?

    It’s easier than ever to bag a bargain, and somehow, we’ve just started to accept that clothes will only last a few washes before the seams unravel. An easy access of cheap imports means that we value quantity over quality, and often we don’t realize how costly it could be to buy low quality items.

    So you think you are saving when you buy cheap? Let’s have a close look at it…

    Imagine you bought a good quality jacket for $300. If you wear it every week for 2 years, the price is $12.50 per wear. Compare that to a jacket you bought at a cut-price department store for $30. You wore it only 3 times before noticing the stitching become loose, the sleeves are too short and the colour is running… So the price of that garment is $10 per wear, which ends up being more expensive – especially when you consider you’ll probably buy another jacket to replace it. Doesn’t it make sense to own 1 good quality jacket that work with most of your existing clothing, rather than 10 ill-fitting ones?

    Boutique

    Is not it better to look into your wardrobe and find pieces that are made of durable, soft and quality material, with the tailoring that fits your body shape like a glove, uniquely for you and last you from one season to the next? Imagine you are never get tired of compliments on your classic style and well used to strangers trying to catch a glimpse of you…

    A classic/capsule wardrobe is about having key, quality pieces that will bring you through seasons. They fit you perfectly, are great quality, and can be mixed and matched with anything else in your wardrobe. It’s about buying smart. Unless you’ve got an unlimited budget for clothes (and let’s face it, many of us don’t) it makes sense to buy smart to ensure you always look classic and stylish.

    Woman-fashion-outfit

    Once you have got good quality basics you can always indulge in a few fast fashion trends, just buy 1 or 2 pieces a season to keep your look current… That is what I call buying smart. The latest looks can also be achieved with accessories – think shoes, bags, scarves, belts, earrings …

    Style stays, Fashion (what you’re offered four times a year by designers) changes.

    Follow these simple tips above and you can save some serious money and look great!
