Holiday Style Tips

 

So we’re already a week into December and I’m sure life is pretty crazy for most of us.   FP sequin shift I feel like my social life in December contains as many events as the other eleven months combined.  I also find that many of the same people attend these annual parties.   I look forward to celebrating with everyone, but if your life is anything like mine, this can mean nights standing in the closet staring at my clothes.  The question I always ask is, “What am I going to wear this time?”

Big fancy holiday galas are few and far between for me.  When they do happen, I always enjoy buying a new dress.  I love this one from Free People and might need an excuse for a new dress!  I’m not going to focus on those fancy occasions, instead I’ll give you my tips on being prepared for your more casual holiday get-togethers.  I want to feel festive, but refuse to wear ornaments earrings or the dreaded “Christmas sweater.”  All you need is some fun items that you can combine in different ways with the staples in your wardrobe.  One sparkly or shiny item mixed with some basics and you’re all set.   These pieces are usually timeless – it’s how you wear them each year that’ll change.

Style Daily can help you find your everyday style.

We all have special days, but most of life is for Style Daily.

 

Have you ever watched the TV show “What Not to Wear?” on TLC and thought, I wish someone would nominate me?  moto grunge (2)Or perhaps that would be your worst nightmare!  You still want the help, but just not in such a public forum.  Stacy London, one of the co-hosts of WNTW, wrote a great book, the Truth about Style.  In it she writes,   “Our clothes, like it or not, give other people insight into who we are.  To take control of the message, you have to know yourself, and dress accordingly.  (Style is the quickest shorthand to who you are.)”   But what is style?  And how do you figure out yours?

Let me back up and tell you who I am and what I do.  My name is Kathy Bochonko and my passion is helping people master their personal style by building a wardrobe that truly represents who they are as a person. I do personal image/wardrobe consultations with the goal of helping people unlock their own unique style. I have spent three decades in the fashion industry and have developed a keen sense for what works for specific individuals in regards to both body type and personal style. I can help folks adapt trends to their comfort level and lifestyle. I offer a variety of personal services such as closet overhaul and wardrobe assessment. I can create a Pinterest board of outfit ideas with your image in mind.  I help people feel confident by giving them the knowledge of what works for them and what doesn’t.  I don’t tell them what to wear.  I listen to what makes them feel good and help them figure out what looks good.  So here are some of my best tips for managing your wardrobe and beginning to understand your own unique style.  More will follow, so stay tuned.  Continue reading Guest Post: Style Daily with Kathy Bochonko →
