Switch Up Your Style! A Fun Way to Make Change

 There’s a whole lot of ways to make change in your life. Some changes are small and easy, and some are big and bold. Some change is limited by factors like income, education, stage of life, or other influences. Not every change you want to make must be monumental. Some can be as simple as switching up your style.

What is style? Style includes:

  • Your hair, clothing, makeup
  • Your home decor
  • Your demeanor and presence and personal style

As people mature, their style tends to mature right alongside. Sometimes people get stuck in a rut or in a time warp where they stopped evolving their style. Their hair may resemble what it did in high school or their early twenties. Their home decor may be well over a decade old, and their demeanor and presence may seem quite like it did when they were young. Any and all the areas of style are a fun way to switch things up and make some changes.

Hair-Clothing-Makeup

Before you make a change:

  • Use a tool like Pinterest to start a collection of inspiring images that get you excited about change. Create fashion boards with modern clothing styles you love.
  • Check out YouTube for videos with tutorials on makeup application to get inspired. Visit the makeup counter at the local department store for a makeup makeover.
  • Try a service like Stitch Fix or Trunk Club to get stylist advice with your closet. These services offer personal stylists who send you clothes to try in the privacy of your own home.

Home Decor

Before you make a change:

  • Spend a weekend visiting model homes for inspiration. Check to see the most modern finishes, appliances, and home decor options in various styles of modern homes.
  • Check out a home show. Trade shows offer a wide variety of the newest trends in outdoor decor and home furnishings.
  • Subscribe to a home decor magazine. Enjoy a new dose of inspiration each month right in your mailbox.

Demeanor – Presence – Personal Style

Before you make a change:

  • Discover a signature scent that you love. Explore the perfume counter at your favorite store and adopt a scent that makes you feel beautiful and feels like a true expression of yourself.
  • Create a monogram. Find a font and artistic style for a personal monogram and order stationary and other personal items embossed with your signature monogram.
  • Invest in your personal development and growth.

 Researching and planning is as much fun as taking bold action for change. You are under no obligation to pull the trigger until you find the perfect way to switch up your style that makes perfect sense for you. When you are ready, it will be just like Christmas! A new way of expressing yourself and a whole lot of newfound confidence.
