As Betsy Johnson says “Always have fun with fashion, dress to entertain yourself”. This is a fave quote of mine because I definitely believe in dressing for me first and 2nd enjoying what I’m wearing. Color is fun, expressive and uplifting, its actually quite important, maybe even call it- therapeutic. Noooooo I’m not a therapist, but I do believe in Fashion Therapy! LOL…

I love wearing COLOR... either adding a touch of it or making a bold statement, especially when I’m not feeling my best or it’s a gloomy day out. It’s kind of a mind game but it works for me 🙂 for instance, when its rainy out I like to wear a bright color like orange, yellow or green. I’d receive comments on my color choice and notice it would make people smile, which releases those endorphins and create a reaction that can indirectly affect hence why I call it the fashion therapy.

Did you know different colors can affect ones mood? Here are just a few…

Green symbolizes harmony, balance and freshness. It also has great healing power. Nature, energy and renewal are also connected to my favorite color.

Yellow is one that is the most energetic colors, its associated with laughter hope and sunshine, a definite mood lifter…

Pink is a sign of hope, it’s positive, inspiring and warm. Provides a sense of calm and reassures our emotional vibes.

I truly believe how we dress is an extension of our mood, mindset and how we want the world to respond to us. There is so much truth in the saying “what you put out is what you get back”. You can change the energy of your space…believe me you can! We all have a choice, we can control what surrounds us all by the actions we choose. So let’s make it intentional ya’ll!!! It starts before we even leave the house. What you wear plays a HUGE part… #1 rule- and I know I always say there are no rules when it comes to your style-Your Style Your Rules right?! Yassss of course! However there is only one small rule that should always apply. Wear what makes YOU feel good!

Not having a great morning?! We all have them… and you know this could be happening for a variety of reasons( insert eye roll) LOL… it’s just that life thing happening as expected… and even when we don’t expect it…expect it. With that being said, we still have to head out into the world and possibly be the face of positivity for someone, a source of encouragement, inspiration and at times looked to for leadership. So what do we do?? We pause and redirect… reach into your closet for that jacket or that dress! Maybe it’s that mood lifting color like I previously mentioned, could even be a lipstick. Whatever IT is that makes YOU feel FABULOUS!… because your mindset is everything and what you put out there once you walk out that door is what you will get back.

Only you can set the tone for your day… whatever color you choose be the change you want to see.
