What do red carpet rock stars like Adele, Kerry Washington, Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Lawrence all have in common? They have expert wardrobe stylists to make them look extra gorgeous from the front, back, side and in every photo. However, don’t throw in the towel just because you can’t afford a stylist, don’t have time or don’t have a Red Carpet event to attend. You can feel like a celebrity in your own home, at work and in your social life. After all, the definition of a celebrity is the state of being celebrated. So, let’s celebrate you!
Consider a few of my favorite style tips to give you celebrity looks and avoid settling for frumpy fashion:
1. Looking Put Together Doesn’t Have to Take Hours
Fortunately, fashion doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Not every fabulous woman spends endless hours primping. One of the sexiest women I know wears jeans, boots, casual t-shirts and rarely spends any time on her hair. This messy yet extremely stylish look works for her! She has sex appeal, with minimal primp time, that you can’t buy. It’s simply her being herself – down-to-earth and unique.
What is your style essence? Is it romantic, feminine, minimal, creative, classic, dramatic, business with boldness, flirty or an array of colors that project a serene aura? I challenge you to find your personal style. Does your closet reflect your style personality? Getting ready in a reasonable time is easy when you have a wardrobe where everything works. And yes, I mean everything! Like any other skill you took effort in learning it will get easier and become second nature.

2. The Most Successful & Influential People In The World Put Great Thought Into Their Wardrobe
Oprah, George Clooney and many more top influential people put careful consideration into their wardrobe. Even someone who may be considered the least fashionable man, Steve Jobs, wore black turtlenecks and Levi’s 501 jeans. He had a plan. He put effort into making this very simple look his signature uniform. He even had his turtlenecks designed by Issey Miyaki, one of the most popular designers. Again, his look isn’t for everyone…but it worked for him.
You may not have one million followers on Instagram or a multi-million dollar business, but you can influence the people around you in a positive way. Messages are better received from a prepared and polished package. If wardrobe planning works for successful, popular life changing public figures, it can work for you!

3. Style is a Visual Representation of You
Your personality is not the first thing people see. It’s your image. In three seconds or less we are summed up. Your choice of wardrobe can either add or take away from life’s opportunities. Knowing your style personality, what colors complement you and what cuts fit and flatter your body shape will keep you looking good and feeling great in no time at all! If your fashion is a challenge, simplify your wardrobe. Find a few styles and cuts that work for you and replicate.
