“I’ve been forty years discovering that the queen of all colours is black.” – Pierre Auguste Renoir

It’s commonly understood that black is not a colour. So you can imagine how much I love Renoir’s recognition of black and the significance it holds in the colour world.

Black is one of my favourite colours. Black can be intriguing, sophisticated and elegant. When it comes to selecting black items for my wardrobe, I search for unique pieces and works of art. Such as my beautifully crafted wool blend textured jacket.

A timeless black silk shirt and stunning black lace structured dress add interest and an element of distinction to my professional wardrobe. Adorned with a pair of shiny black heels, they make great staples that can carry you from the office through to functions or events in the evening.

“The best colour in the whole world is the one that looks good, on you” – Coco Chanel

Colour is the foundation of personal styling. When you understand your unique colour palette based on your characteristics and personality, and balance this both intuitively and intellectually, you will know how to create a look and style that is made just for you.

I use colour to communicate my individuality and when I wear the right colours it gives me the image of style and confidence. It plays an important part in my life not only because I am in the field of providing image advice but also because it is how I express my creativity and love of fashion.

Use colour to communicate your individuality by adding it to your life!

How to project credibility and power

It’s all in the fit! If it fits the body its saying “I look powerful because everything I wear FITS my frame perfectly and is flawlessly tailored”.

Congratulations Renae and Lia!

Inspirational Style for Men

Invest in a great watch; it will be your lowest cost per wear item. A watch can represent everything about being a man, your research, your masculinity and a snap shot of where you are at a point in time. Select a Swiss watch that is classic and holds its value such as the IWC, Ulysses Nardin or Panerai.

Power of Observation for Women

Be inspired by the confidence and unique style of the women around us. Pay attention to the image they portray and take from it what you need to refine your own personal style to help you achieve what you desire. Look to the bold, bright and high contrast outfits of Michelle Obama for elegance and assertiveness, to the jeans and tailored white shirts of Elle Macpherson to project a quietly confident and self assured woman or the unique and Spanish chic of Penelope Cruz to create an intriguing image of a creative and successful woman. But it doesn’t need to be a celebrity, what about your best friend or work colleague? Who do you identify with?

When Dressing to Impress

Elegance = Style. It is stunning, respected and desirable.

Wardrobe Communication

Are you the quiet type who finds it harder to naturally promote yourself at interviews or at work? Or perhaps an overly confident extrovert who is often challenged and misunderstood? Did you know that there are ways you can control what you communicate in the workplace through your image? The majority of this communication is through psychology.

Clothes and colour enhance the strength of your verbal message and can say a great deal about your personality and character as well as your position of influence. Consider fabric, colour and style. For instance, red can be worn by those who want to convey assertiveness, while black can be interpreted to mean sophistication and power. In terms of fabrics, silk conveys elegance while white cotton shirts say I’m easy going, approachable and relaxed.
