When we met to shop in June, she had a 5 month old baby. She was still breast feeding and trying to lose the baby weight. Her challenge was to not spend a lot of money and she needed something that wasn't in a sweat pant material :)
The Steps we took...
1. KNOW WHAT COLORS LOOK GOOD ON YOU!! Chrystal is a Summer - which means she looks best in bright, vivid colors. Grays are a good neutral color for a Summer as well.
2. UNDERSTAND YOUR BODY!! Chrystal just had a baby. She has great legs. Accentuate the positive, minimize the negative!! We also determined that a V-neck was her best friend.
3. DETERMINE YOUR STYLE!! Chrystal knew what she was looking for... a super casual outfit that was great for nursing, but could be dressed up for a date with hubby.
OUTCOME:
Chrystal's total was $36.02 for 3 shirts. A brilliant blue stripped shirt from Forever21 was $15.54. A bright pink Gap ruffle (ruffles are 'in') was $14.49 and a Gap Red V-neck was $5.99.
Chrystal now had 3 different shirts to wear with khaki's, jeans and shorts. Changing the shoes and accessories can also change the 'feel' of an outfit.
Thank you Chrystal! Great Color on you :)
I just attended Hip Bargain Chick's fashion show this evening! It was a GREAT time, by the way! While there, she mentioned that she had just posted her 100th tip, so I was super excited to get home and check it out. I was thrilled to see that my friend Chrystal was showcased in Tip #100. I had no idea!! How exciting. Thanks for all you do to make women of all ages look their best, feel great, and spend little doing it ;) You rock!
