Fresh Vibe

I've looked at my closet, and it definitely needs work. I'm ready to take a fresh look at my clothes, but where to start? How do I know what to discard, or keep?

Pondering questions: Sometimes starting there gives us a vision of where we want to go; what we want to look like; what we want to achieve in our wardrobe, and once that is clear, the seas part and you know what needs to be done...

So i ask you...do you have a vibe in mind? if no one was there telling you to be 'sensible' or that you're too short (me); too old to do or wear something...

Who inspires you when you see a photo? it could be a family member, a Hollywood star past or present, someone who 'gets' your style or has a look you'd always wanted but were afraid you couldn't pull off (mine, this past year, was VB's style of the summer).

After you have the answer, hear the voices in your head that say 'you can't,' and say back to them 'why NOT?!" i think 'giving yourself permission' to be who you want to be in how you present yourself to the world is very very important- it gives you gumption and determination and a force of spirit that won't allow the disablers in this world to bring you down or to take away the reins of your wardrobe. it will give you confidence to say 'this is what i want to do, this is the look i want- deal with it." i've never been as happy with my style as i was this past year, and its not about how i look, it's about the attitude, giving myself permission to be who i want to be an unleashed a passion and confidence that i never ever ever ever had. so take some time to think about the question...it will open doors...
