Keeping up with the trends each season goes a long way with keeping your wardrobe looking fresh and modern and prevents you from looking dated and frumpy. Skip a few seasons and suddenly you begin to fall into a rut, feel matronly and not nearly as chic and up-to-date as you would like to be. However, embracing the trends each season isn’t at all about being dictated to. I want to encourage you to keep an eye on the trends and then use them merely as suggestions for what you could bring into your wardrobe. The good news about the trends is that each season there are a variety of options. There is no one color or trend that is going to look gorgeous on everyone, so fortunately we have many options from which to choose. Different looks, colors and styles are offered in a smorgasbord that is yours for the taking, so choose thoughtfully and carefully, those which quicken your pulse and inspire your imagination. Each season there are specific colors touted as the hottest shades. I encourage you to use these as a guideline for what you can bring into your wardrobe to make small tweaks that bring it current. But please, if these shades do not flatter your personal coloring, don’t wear them. Instead, find an alternative in a similar shade that brings out your individual beauty and makes you shine! No one looks good when wearing the wrong colors, whether it’s the hottest hue or not. Are you ready to feel confident when it comes to getting dressed?
