Developing a personal style is a creative and individual process.

Developing an image that feels both authentic to who you are and representative of the message you want to convey, is instrumental to the success of your career.

The clothing we wear doesn’t define who we are, what we want, or what we’re capable of – but it most certainly influences how we feel and how we’re perceived. Even if you’re not working with a Stylist, crafting your personal brand is something that’s COMPLETELY within our control! 

Here are some steps to help you cultivate your personal style:

• Explore and gather inspiration: Look for inspiration from various sources such as fashion magazines, blogs, social media (instagram, snapchat, facebook), and even different cultures. Save or bookmark images, outfits, or styles that resonate with you and reflect your personality.

• Identify your preferences: Take some time to analyze the images and styles you've collected. Look for common themes, colors, patterns, or silhouettes that attract you the most. Consider the activities you engage in regularly and the environments you find yourself in, as this can influence your style choices.

• Experiment: Begin experimenting with different pieces of clothing and accessories to see what works for you. Try out different styles, combinations, and textures. Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and take risks.

• Find your signature elements: As you experiment, you may start to notice certain elements or pieces that you feel particularly drawn to and that resonate with your personality. These can become your signature elements or staples that define your personal style.

• Dress for your body type: Understand your body shape (Hourglass, pear shaped, inverted triangle, square, round) and dress in a way that flatters your figure. Choose clothing styles and cuts that highlight your best features and make you feel confident.

• Quality over quantity: Invest in quality pieces that will stand the test of time rather than following fast fashion trends. Quality clothing often fits better, lasts longer, and can be more sustainable in the long run. Make sure to pick those colors with which you can create at least 3-4 different outfit looks

• Embrace your individuality: Your personal style should be a reflection of who you are. Don't be overly influenced by trends or what others are wearing if it doesn't align with your own taste and personality. Embrace your uniqueness and let it shine through your style choices.

• Build a versatile wardrobe: Aim for a mix of timeless and versatile pieces that can be easily mixed and matched to create various outfits. This will give you more flexibility and options when putting together your looks.

• Confidence is key: Wear your clothes with confidence. When you feel comfortable and confident in what you're wearing, it will radiate through your personal style and make a statement.

Remember that personal style is an ongoing journey, and it can evolve and change over time. Be open to trying new things, refining your style, and embracing your individuality.
