Anita & Erica xxCommon ConcernsThrough the countless conversations Fiona has had with women in midlife, a common struggle is not feeling like their external appearance sits comfortably with their internal identity - who they are. And they’re not sure how to fix that. “I don’t know how to dress in a way that feels true to who I am.”She calls this common conflict the Alien Effect. I’m sure many of us have items in our wardrobe that when we put them on, feel ‘alien’ to us. Myth Busted: The main issue isn’t actually about the fit of that item —it’s about understanding your Style Personality. The Style Personality FrameworkFiona introduced 8 style personalities (most people are a combination of 2-3):* Classic - Tailored, timeless, structured, minimal accessories* Relaxed - Comfort-first, natural fabrics, effortless look* Dramatic - Bold, impactful, prioritizes looks over comfort* Rebellious - Irreverent, edgy details, doesn’t follow rules* Creative - Unique, vintage, mood dresser, quirky color combinations* Sultry - Glamorous, figure-embracing, bold accessories* Feminine - Soft fabrics, gentle details (lace, ruffles), warm colors* Elegant - Sophisticated, uses color and print with structure» Curious to find out which Style Personalities you are? Find out here in Fiona’s free Style Personality Quiz.The “Shoulds” Problem That Blocks Our Authenticity* Women often abandon their authentic style due to cultural/role expectations. Here we go again ladies.* “I should dress like this” or “I shouldn’t wear that at my age” - bugger that! If you love it and it feels great on, go for it.* Many of us were of a certain style in our 20s. Trying to hang on to that in midlife and make it ‘fit’ with who we are now, that’s not going to feel ‘right’. Let’s embrace the now, who we are now and move forward from there.* We talked about the “mutton dressed as lamb” saying and how that impacts us.Life Transitions & Style EvolutionStyle personality can shift during major transitions - many of these happen in midlife often all at once. It’s in these major shifts that we feel the pull of re-invention - to meet the needs of that change and at the same time, feel like it’s us as we do.* Career changes - maybe you’re pulling back into ‘retirement territory’ so going casual is calling loudly. Fiona said that is often the greatest challenge for some Style Personalities too - how to dress more casually without losing their authentic self.* Returning from maternity leave - maybe you need to step things up a bit* Kids leaving home - time to let go and dress for the fun stuff! :)* Moving locations - weather and lifestyle changes.Fiona suggests revisiting your style every 3-5 years is often helpful. Practical Tips for DiscoveryStart in Your Own Wardrobe:* Identify “alien pieces”—items you like in theory but never wear* Analyze what doesn’t work: colour, print, fabric, cut, details?* Examine pieces you love and feel amazing in* Look for patterns, common themes, in your preferencesShopping Strategy:* Don’t look outward first (social media, trends)—look inward* Use Google Shopping with your style words + item name + “street style” - Erica and I thought this was a smokin’ hot tip promising to do this and report back :)* Experiment without the pressure to buy - browse and play. * Try things on - that’s the only way you’re really going to know how you feel in something. Online doesn’t necessarily translate.* Return things that don’t work after ...
