Tips to Help You Find Your Personal Style

The impact of personal style goes far beyond making a good first impression; great style is also about approaching each day with confidence, and the ability to feel  beautiful in what we are wearing. Believe it or not, the right wardrobe can make a difference on how you feel about yourself.

Get inspiration. Do a bit of research and gather inspiration of your favorite style icons looks.

Edit your closet. Remove anything that doesn’t fit or you haven’t worn over two years.  After a good closet cleanse you can begin to rebuild and refine your personal style. 

Shop Smart. Make a list of the items to buy and take your lifestyle and goals into consideration.

Don’t rush. Try a wide range of clothes and spend time working out which cuts suit you best

Choose your palette. Try a range of colors against your skin to see which suit you best. Be adventurous

Ask for help. Don’t be afraid to enlist the help of a professional.  Ask for advice from the stylists. 

Something that makes you feel confident and beautiful never goes out of style.


Personal style is knowing yourself, your lifestyle, your body and finding clothes that become the frame. You are the star. It’s knowing when to say yes and when to say no.

A leather jacket; works on so many occasions. Looks great over a floral dress or with a pair of jeans and even looks goods in the evening with a sparkly mini dress.

airport style

A basic tee and jeans / pants can be the most comfortable type of clothing to wear just as long as both garments are quite loose – especially for a long fight.  Airports and when you’re up in the clouds can be quite chilly so ship a cardigan on top of your tee and carry an oversized versatile scarf to keep you warm or use as a pillow.
