21.01.2022 Happy Monday! Last week I ran Part 3 of the 'How to Build a Flattering, Stylish and Sustainable Wardrobe' workshop as part of the City of Port Adelaide Enfield's WiseMove for Women program. We had so much fun! ... We talked a lot about utilizing what you already have in your wardrobe and using it in different ways... It inspired me to get into my own wardrobe over the weekend and I styled up a storm and I came up with loads of new outfits to wear over the coming months... Got to love a bit of shopping in your own wardrobe! Do you do this? It is pretty amazing what you can do with what you have! So, I'm super inspired for my 1st client of the week's Wardrobe Styling session this morning... Hope you have a lovely day. Amanda xo

20.01.2022 "Style is more than just clothes. It's an expression of the unique you." - Amanda Curren - Personal Stylist Today I'm heading off to run PART 2 (of 3) of the Workshop as part of the Wise Move for women program focusing on minimizing our fashion footprint by understanding how to build a fabulous, flattering and sustainable Wardrobe. Today we'll be focusing on unearthing and developing your authentic Signature Style...... Dressing to highlight your personality is equally as important as dressing to suit your physicality...

20.01.2022 QUESTION // What do you love most about Autumn dressing? Well, Autumn is here yes, we will definitely have quite a few more beautiful warm weeks before moving into the cooler phase... BUT, Im in full swing Autumn preparation wardrobe wise because that is my job I love Autumn dressing I love the mix of light sleeved pieces and sandals, ankle boots with summer dresses and a jumper the colours the change So tell, me tell me what do you love most about Autumn dressing? Happy Monday! Amanda xo

20.01.2022 STYLE GOAL #3 // Wear more of your wardrobe What does that mean? ... It means that if you are like most people you wear 20% of whats in your wardrobe 80% of the time. So, what Im saying is start wearing the other 80% more Why? Because often times the reason youve got your favourites (the 20%) is youre in a bit of a rut And chances are there are a whole lot of amazing options just sitting there feeling unloved Aim? Wear the pieces that havent gotten out much more Make a date with your wardrobe and get in and get creative Come up with some new favourite outfits using pieces you rarely wear, AKA shopping in your own wardrobe! I love getting in and styling up a storm in my clients wardrobes (an mine!) Do you do this? Reach out if you need some help with this, you will be amazed what you can do with what you already have! Amanda xo

19.01.2022 STYLE GOAL #5 // Find and fill your gaps What does that mean? ... OK, when I do a wardrobe edit amongst many other things, I look for the gaps. Wardrobe gaps are the missing pieces Why? Because once you find and fill them, so many more outfit options will open up. Aim? To be able to wear those pieces in your wardrobe that you cant because they dont have a partner in crime to shine with And sometimes to add a bit of fun to elevate your style... My clients often call me the gap finder, kind of funny I know, but it's so important to know whats missing and what you need to add to get things working better and really maximizing your wardrobe investments. Do you know what your gaps are? Reach out if you need some help with this, you will be amazed at how much better things work once you've found and filled your wardrobe gaps Happy Tuesday! Amanda xo

17.01.2022 QUESTION // What is the one wardrobe item you couldn’t live without? We all have that one thing And interestingly it tells us more than we may think about our personal style... I love it when in my Personal Style sessions, through profiling and asking lots of the right questions (this right here is one of them), I unearth my clients Signature Style When we connect with THAT signature style that is uniquely ours that comes from within, then learn how to cultivate and evolve it, magic happens You feel YOU You get style confidence - priceless So tell me, tell me, what is the one wardrobe item you couldn’t live without?

17.01.2022 FAQ // Should I wait to lose the weight I want to lose before I have my styling session? This question comes up in 70% of my enquiries I know we all have our thing... where we put things on hold until XYZ happens... I know Ive done that... But I dont anymore... because Ive learned that all we have is NOW So here are my 3 reasons why I say NO to this question 1. A great number of my clients have told me they lost weight after our sessions and attributed that to looking fabulous and consequently feeling more confident (and less stressed out about what to wear and how they look) 2. If you do lose weight you can always alter the clothes you have or buy more clothes Its not the end of the world 3. You may or may not ever lose that weight. and you can and deserve to look AMAZING now! So dont wait or hesitate to do something that will positively change the way you look and the way you feel. Happy Thursday! Amanda xo

07.01.2022 QUESTION // What percentage of your wardrobe do you actually wear? 20%? 50%? 90% This is an interesting one isnt it?... The widely quoted statistic is that most women wear 20 30% of their wardrobes and when I first start working with a client that rings pretty true... That means the same items are on high rotation leaving the rest unworn and unloved. My aim is to get that percentage way closer to 100%... That usually means parting with some things and adding the missing pieces so it works really, really well... So, what percentage of your wardrobe do YOU actually wear? Happy Wednesday! Amanda xo

02.01.2022 STYLE TIP // Cost Effective Shopping The PPW Formula This is one of many tips covered in THE FABULOUS WARDROBE PROJECT eCOURSE https://thestylemanifesto.com/the-fabulous-wardrobe-project The best wardrobe investments are those you look good and feel amazing in because you wear them over and over... So, before handing over your hard-earned dollars, meet my PricePerWear (PPW) formula This really helps work out where its best to invest and where to skimp It goes like this: ACTUAL PRICE NUMBER OF WEARS (ANTICIPATE) = PPW For example You buy an evening dress off the sale rack - such a bargain! - $500 down to $200. You wear it once. PPW - $200.00 ouch! But you buy an amazing, flattering pair of jeans, also $200 and you wear them once a week throughout the year totalling 52 wears. PPW $3.84 waaaay better! Considering the PricePerWear price rather than simply the price on the tag puts a different perspective on things. There are so many things to consider when planning, creating, organizing and shopping for the perfect wardrobe - I teach them ALL here https://thestylemanifesto.com/the-fabulous-wardrobe-project THE FABULOUS WARDROBE PROJECT eCOURSE! Do you think about the PPW before buying wardrobe pieces? Happy Friday! Amanda xo
