“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!

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”.

Power of Observation for Women

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

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?
