Well, hello gorgeous. Welcome to a very special limited time episode. This is only going to be up for a few days, but I wanted to tell you about an event that you don't want to miss. Have you ever gotten dressed in an outfit you thought was going to look cute and then you looked in the mirror only to be disappointed? It doesn't look in real life like it did in your head. You know something's off, but you can't quite put your finger on what. Now, maybe you thought, well, if I were just a little bit taller or thinner or younger or richer, cooler, what, whatever, this would look amazing. Friend, let me stop you right there. You are not the problem. The problem is that no one ever taught us how to put together outfits in a way that works or what to do when they're clearly not working. So what do we do? Usually we buy more clothes, thinking that the next top or the perfect pants will finally be the key to looking put together. Or we turn to others asking that dreaded question, how does this look on me? But here's why I hate that question. Most people, even those who look great in their own clothes, aren't educated about style principles. They can't tell you why something isn't working or how to fix it. Even the salespeople in the stores can't offer more than it's cute. Oh, that's cute. To absolutely everything you try on. Because they don't know either. And let's be honest about asking our loved ones. They often hold back or sugarcoat their responses to avoid hurting our feelings or starting a fight. So we end up with either vague compliments that don't help or we feel even more frustrated than before, or even worse, our feelings are hurt and you still don't feel great in your outfit. I have seen so many women fall into this cycle. They have closets full of the right pieces on trend items, quality basics, clothes that should work. But something still isn't right when they put them all together. They spend precious time trying on outfit after outfit, only to leave the house feeling underwhelmed or discouraged, blaming themselves because they weren't born with that magical style gene I'm always talking about. I believe every woman can look fantastic every day and I want to help you do just that. So. So I've put together a totally free workshop called 5 Ways to Look Better in youn Clothes. Think of this class like a troubleshooting checklist for those times when your look just isn't coming together. No more guessing, no more relying on others opinions and Definitely. No more blaming your body or your lack of inherent style ability. Here's a little peek at what you'll learn in the class. First, the number one style killer that's probably keeping you from looking your best right now and I'm guessing it's not what you think it is. We'll talk about why some outfits look amazing while others fall flat even when they're made up of good pieces that you love.

Finally, you'll learn how to build your confidence when putting outfits together so that you can trust your own judgment instead of seeking others approval.
