We often see women walk into a room and command authority and respect just by the way they look, chic and elegant. How do they do it?

It's not about faking it, it's about making the most or your investment and feeling good about yourself. Making your clothes represent you. Remember your clothing is just an extension of your personality and speaks volumes.

Listen in to hear the things I go over with my clients as a Wardrobe Stylist and Transformational Life Coach.

As a Wardrobe Stylist, I have worked with hundreds of women and there are 3 common issues I see repeatedly;

👗 They have nothing to wear yet they have closets full of clothes�

👗 They do not know how to fit their body to look and feel comfortable�

👗 They do not have a Wardrobe Strategy or Plan, hence the waste of time, money and energy

But yet they continue to shop and buy clothes that don’t fit their bodies, their wardrobe or their needs.

This is why I created My "Core Wardrobe Signature System©" Listen in to learn more.

Most women have an area of their bodies that they wish to conceal. As a Transformational Life Coach and Wardrobe Stylist, One of the main questions I get from my clients, is how do I conceal my tummy without looking even larger?

This is very interesting because nature does not discriminate, you can experience this issue whether you are a size 4 or 24. (trust me)

Knowing your body shape is very important because it helps you to understand how length, cut and style affects your overall appearance. There are many ways to minimize to look slimmer.

In this video I go over a few aspects that you may consider to hide the little bulge.

👉 Your choice of pant

👉 The fit and choice of your top

👉 The choice of color for your top and

👉 The 4F© System I go over with my clients

The goal is to always feel good in our clothes so when our clothes fit correctly, we carry ourselves with confidence.

Hello, I am Anna Mc Connell - Transformational Life Coach and Wardrobe Stylist, I help women and transwomen to create a wardrobe to match their lifestyle, bring out their true personality and simplify their life.

A community question was recently asked.

The question is: “I am getting head shots done soon, what is your best advice on selecting what to wear?’

This is a great question.

Several things are to consider, you are using your headshots for social media, website, print, therefore business, you want to look professional, approachable and trustworthy.

• So you want to determine who you want to appeal to?
• Who is your audience/clients you want to relate to?
• You want to convey a message that suits the industry you are working in
• To be memorable and communicate who you really are
• Although simplicity is always best, you may want to show your personality with your signature style. A signature is something that you are immediately recognizable by, It may be the jewelry you wear, scarves, unique glasses or the way you wear your hair or makeup. Many celebrities have defined their brand with a signature style. I’m sure you can think of at least 5 right now.
• In terms of colors, the right colors should brighten your eyes and even out your skin tone. I’m sure you have been complimented many times on how radiant you looked or how glowing you were, those were your colors.
• Everyone can wear most colors, it all depends on the right shade of that color. For instance, I can wear a grass green which will make my eyes pop whereas a pale green, I will look as if I have jandice, the tone is very important.
• Check yourself in daylight against a white background as artificial lighting tend to change the color tone.
• Bold colors, jewel tones or solid are excellent choices for most skin tones. Blues are general favorites.
• To convey formality, colors such as brown, grey or navy are good choices.
• Black and stark white may cast shadows with artificial lighting and harsher on most skin tones. If you do want to wear black, wear a brighter color near your face or choose a cream instead of white.
• Avoid red if you have a pink undertone, it will bring out the red pigments in your skin tone.
• Most of these rules also apply to video. I hope this has helped.

Have a lovely day,

Bye

Whether you are creating a wardrobe from scratch or revamping your wardrobe, it is important to work on your color scheme. Adding color brightens up your mood, gives you energy, reflects your personality and elevates your outfit. Color can change the way you appear quicker than any piece of clothing or style. It has the ability to transform, slim or emphasize your body.Anyone who colors their hair can tell you as much. It is also one of the best and undervalued Styling tools we have in our tool box.

So much can be said by the way we dress. Use color to send the right messages to your audience. Are you credible? feminine? Down to earth and friendly? Trustworthy? Not only we see color but we have emotional responses to color.

Dressing is all about proportions. It is like architecture, we need balance for visual appeal.

Your body type will determine which styles look best on you, so it is very important,

When purchasing clothes, we often buy something we liked on someone else, on a store mannequin or in a magazine ad. We then realize it doesn't fit properly and more often than not, we determine that our body is at fault, which is not the case, We simply didn't purchase the style that suited our body.

There are three factors that I go over with my clients that will flatter your appearance whatever your body type.

Many women come to me because they are frustrated by the trends and clothing choices they find in store.

Unless you spend your day at the gym, you don’t have the same body you had in your 20’s.

So how can you look fashionable at any age? By following my ABC’s

1-ACCEPTANCE AND ATTITUDE

Age is just a number. You are what you believe yourself to be.

2- BALANCE

Whatever your body shape, remember to balance your proportions.

3- CLASSIC

Classic is not frumpy and old fashion clothing! It doesn’t have to be boring.

What to Wear When You are Busty

Whether you are petite, large, busty or have a smaller chest, we all need support, the right support.

There are strategies to conceal or reveal

Use the structure of the clothing to do so. Semi-fitted tops and darts for instance or necklines that elongate your torso.

The key is to avoid any additional volume on the top 

Show off your curves to your best advantage
