Its getting stormy and cool.  The leaves are turning orange and red.  At this time of the year we say goodbye to summer and welcome in the cooler weather.  With that often brings a rethink of our wardrobes.  

 

Fashion is cyclical and styles very often repeat with slight nuances and changes.  It our job as stylists to help guide you into the new season with some suggestions as to how to stay up to date as well as wear things you already have in your wardrobe.  

 

Check out this podcast for the most up to date trends as they are in the shops now or may even be lurking in your own wardrobe!

One of the things I have noticed as I age is how I have less capacity to take new things on.   I have spoken to numerous others who also find that they experience the same.   It can be frustrating and feel limiting. 

This podcast examines what human capacity is,  what controls it and how we can look after ourselves better.  

 

Don't forget to also check out my blog which deep dives a little further into this topic.
