How to Create a Signature Style

Recently I met a new client for coffee, and we began talking about her wardrobe and she told me, Annette, I have nothing in my closet.

Nothing.  Nothing fits. Nothing fits right. I go to my closet and try to pack for a trip, and I have nothing.

I wonder, have you ever felt like that?

What really is happening is, you’re done settling.

You are ready to take care of yourself in a more meaningful way.

And unlock your style potential by being MORE of YOU.

A wardrobe that has:

  • Uniqueness

  • Ease

  • Quality

  • Your look is pulled together

  • Perfect for the occasion

  • You are self-assured and radiate confident

You have elevated how you want to represent yourself.

It’s time to be INTENTIONAL and create a wardrobe that looks and feels TOTALLY You!

I refer to it as designing your Signature Wardrobe.

Creating a signature wardrobe that checks all the boxes MUST be intentional.

If not, it will become overwhelming.

What does a Signature Wardrobe look like?

A signature wardrobe should feel TOTALLY You. You look in the mirror and say, “oh my gosh, I love this.”

You feel self-assured and confident.

There's something about the look whether it's the style, color or a pattern.

Your style radiates confidence.

It’s TOTALLY YOU. And people comment, oh my gosh, that's so you.

Nobody signs their name like you do, that’s your signature style.

Is it unique to you.

It feels comfortable being you.

You don't have to apologize for who you are because it's your signature style.

The Power of a Jacket

The Power of a Jacket

Are you someone who has some great jackets in your wardrobe?

Do you wear them ONE way, with ONE specific blouse?

I have a current client doing that. 

Or maybe you’re someone who has a black jacket and don’t tend to wear it much?

That is another client of mine.

Let’s talk about the Power of a JACKET and how it can elevate your wardrobe and personal style.

WHY Jackets?

  1. Jackets have a subliminal message 

I’m sure you know what I mean when you see a woman with a great jacket. 

You notice her. 

She looks professional. 

She’s pulled together and polished. 

She has personal style.

Maybe your mind goes to expert, she’s really good at what she does. 

  1. Jackets keep you warm

It could be that simple, you are looking for warmth. I get it, as I can be a cold body myself. 

Owning a neutral color jacket such as black or camel is a great investment piece that can serve as professional and warmth as well as show off your personal style.

  1. Style of Jacket 

This is where you need to begin thinking about your personal style, professional brand and lifestyle. 

How do you want your jacket to serve you? Meetings? Online? In-person?

Do you want it to be more traditional or dressy casual style?

A jacket that carries more authority or one that is more approachable?

Do you want creativity or edginess to be part of your personal style?

In Fashion Feng Shui, I talk about the Harmony of your Inner and Outer Presence. 

  • Finding a jacket that is Uniquely YOU
