In the last few months, I’ve gotten some emails with the subject and opening lines from clients that either made me laugh out loud, think it was spam, or simply made me smile as I was reminded of why I do what I do.
Here are just a few as I received them:
BILL ME

If you were going to send me an email about what you want or need in your closet, what would your opening or subject lines be?
Here I am in Better Than Gossip’s podcast giving you the tips and incentive to change your clothes and how you see yourself in them.

Here’s a fashion trend I like, even though I hate trends…Dopamine Dressing!
Huh?
Trends are designed to make you buy new clothes.
New clothes are wonderful as long as they look good on you, and when a trend doesn’t look good on you, neither will your new clothes.
There are many clothing style choices these days that don’t look ridiculously trendy but slim us down and elevate our style.
But, I do have one exception.
The best trend for you is…Dopamine Dressing!!
Dopamine Dressing involves dressing to boost your mood, and when you wear clothes that make you look and feel slimmer, confident, approachable, and put-together, you’ll be boosted every single day of the year!
Here’s a bit more of my thoughts on fashion trends and dressing to look and feel happy:

It’s time for you to stop making this very common
clothes shopping mistake.
Stop buying more of what you already own.
When it comes to buying clothes, you are likely drawn to what you’re used to wearing, even if it might not be your most flattering look or fit.
And then, you buy it over and over. Be it another pair of black pants, leggings, a top you have in multiple colors, etc.
Break your habit, and try on something you’ve never worn before. Hey, even I need to do this sometimes.
I promise you’ll be happily surprised when a totally different style, fit and color looks very good on you, and then your closet won’t be filled with clothes that all look the same and you won’t be bored like this woman was.
Tiny tweaks make big differences in how we look, and when you know the ones perfect for your unique features and life, you will stop feeling bad when you go out and start feeling and looking like the fabulous woman you are.

Who else has spent hours, days, or years trying to find jeans that fit and flatter?
Let’s face it, finding a pair of jeans that we can get into and zipped, is as frustrating as trying on bathing suits.
Actually, worse because we can sit by the pool not wearing a bathing suit.
We could wear jeans…
and now we’re right back struggling to find a pair that make our tush and tummy look good.
Today I’m going to share tips on how to look better in jeans & where to find them.
The search began for me decades ago, and as my body, designs, and fabrications have changed, so have the jeans that look good on me and likely you as well.
Watch my video below to see why rolling up or shortening
your jeans can be a thumbs up or down, and so much more.
NOTE: I still love skinny-legged jeans, which is what I’m wearing in the above photos, despite the current trend of more baggy-shaped jeans being pushed on us.
Skinny/narrow styles can make your legs look longer and leaner when worn with longer tops, and if this shape isn’t right for you because it truly isn’t flattering on everyone, try straight-legged jeans.
Straight-legged have a bit more wiggle room, without adding unnecessary width to your body.
Grab all my jeans suggestions below.
Here are my current favorite jeans for you to try.

This means 90% of the women who tell me they want to lose weight before they work with me end up calling me exactly one year later and usually are not thinner.
Why?
Because for many, losing weight wasn’t that easy, and sometimes even more weight was gained. Yeah, that happens a lot and I’ve been there myself.
Don’t beat yourself up, if you are not successful with a resolution.
Instead, of trying to change your body, how about you change your clothes?
If your clothes are wrong for you, losing weight isn’t going to be the solution. Often, my clients lose weight after learning how to dress the body they have.
When you like what you see, it changes how you feel and that’s the best motivator of all.

Every closet I’ve been in either virtually or in person has the “oh this is what I wear for Christmas” top or pants.
Usually, there is red or velvet involved each and every time, and other than Santa himself, we don’t need to wear the same outfit year after year.
Put away that red sweater you’ve worn for the last 10 years and those ornament-printed velvet pants, and get inspired with these simple tips that turn a basic outfit into a party one with some sparkle to brighten up your gathering.
Please excuse my sneezing attack. 😬
