Somewhere between the fall of shoulder pads (the first round) and the rise of low-cut jeans, you may have lost your flair. If so, shop for a style before shopping for clothes. Recognise that a makeover doesn’t happen in a day, even in TV land it takes a few days.
Rachel Quilty, Jump the Q’s Professional Image and Personal Brand Strategist, provides the strategies and tactics to update your look and style inexpensively and quickly while you develop your signature style over time.
The easily and quickest way to give your image a lift is to get a fantastic style cut and colour. However, seek guidance from an Image consultant first, on what is the best hair colours and style for your complexion and face shape. This is generally discussed with a Colour and Style consultation as a routine inclusion. But mention it specifically to your consultant to ensure they are prepared and able to give you the exact information you are looking for. Clip photos of women whose hair and makeup you like, then bring them to a salon. Even if a cut is wrong for your features, your stylist will see what you're aiming for.
Extend your wardrobe inexpensively by adding tops, blouses and jackets. Most people only focus on your top half so you can easily update your existing wardrobe without a huge initial expense of suits and core items.
Coats and handbags can have a big impact too, they're the first reflection of your personality that many people see. Invest a great coat per season with the aim of wearing it consistently for the period it is in fashion. Get great cost per wear value with a statement piece for a signature look. Hand bags are an indulgence we’d all love to more regularly. However, take stock a strategic style isn’t necessarily a fashion forward look.
Branding yourself consistently inconsistent with fashion forward looks are high maintenance and isn’t for the budget conscious.
Once among the racks, begin with the item you'll wear most. For example, for a polished look, "start with fantastic fitted trousers in black or navy. Go through magazines and tear out pictures of women whose looks you admire.
Shop on start of season or new arrival sales rather than sales during the season for a better range of colours and sizes.
