ABOUT STYLE
Personal Style De-Mystified by Janice Coyne, Style Consultant I was reflecting over the summer on what the recurring questions and issues were that I help clients with during the wardrobe de-cluttering and personal shopping times we have. Often it’s the personal style issue that concerns us most with the following questions coming up regularly:
On Tuesday the 3rd of November I will be hosting a personal style night in the Giddy Studios on Grange Road. We will consider the above questions and look at the importance of: body shape, clothing personality, colour, capsule wardrobe and using accessories to change outfits.
• Do I have a personal style and what is it?
The evening will begin at 7.30pm with a glass of wine and finish with tea/coffee around 9.30pm. The cost is €20 per person.
• How do I identify it? • How can I be age appropriate now that I’ve had that significant birthday? • I used to know what suited me but feel that I’ve lost my way somehow.
on Saturday Mornings
Good level of fitness and core stability required
If you are interested in attending please let me know by text or e-mail as places are limited. This should be a fun night ladies – let me de-mystify the style issue once and for all!
It is easy to become confused between fashion and style, however personal style is not about following fashion, it is about understanding what works for you, your body shape, your lifestyle, and how to express yourself effortlessly and comfortably by wearing your clothes confidently. We are surrounded by images of stick thin models wearing clothes that wouldn’t suit the lifestyle of most of the women who look at them. Finding out how to sift through the new seasons fashion to find the pieces that suit and fit you can be a daunting task for even the most dedicated shopper and I know that for many of us that is just too much like hard work: we don’t know where to begin or what to look for. When you understand what your personal style is, the hunt for the correct items becomes easier. Realising what trends in the current fashion won’t suit you and interpreting the parts that will, leave you free to be selective and confident. 26 | ABOUT BALLINTEER
