As I've mentioned in a previous blog, I have many roles. As a result of my many roles, I have little time. Despite little time, I like to love my look and live my brand. Sometimes I even need to be different (or at least look like different) people in one day!
Question: Does that sound familiar?
Believe me, it's not all about an extensive wardrobe either (though that would be nice!). As an image consultant one of the things I love doing is helping people make what they already own work better/ harder/smarter.
Take this staple base of a plain black top and trousers.
In a super speedy ten minute headshot photoshoot* with the fabulous and talented Kate Darkins of http://www.katedarkinsphotography.co.uk/ I managed to get these different looks, all relevant and true to me with just: 3 scarves (each used differently), 1 jacket, 1 necklace and 1 hat!
What does each 'look' say to you,and where might they be appropriate?
I wanted to create a different impression with each of the 'looks', but at the same time be true to me and professional, relevant, happy (comfortable) and accessoried!
- Maintain and maximise a capsule wardrobe
- Go from daytime to evening events
- Have productive and considered shopping trips
- Save money on buying 'whole new outfits'
- Pack a light case for travelling
- Get the maximum out of a photoshoot! (*Yes, I'm serious, we made the changes and took the shots in just 10 minutes - so imagine what we could do with longer.)
So, how would you accessorise your best basic outfit?
If you'd like to know how to make the most of your wardrobe, how to accessorise, your best colours or have any style related challenges, I'd love to help!
'Til next time!

You look amazing in all of these photos! I love how easily an accessory can totally change up an outfit :) xx
