How to translate your style words into actual outfits
Introducing The Signature Style Recipe Framework
Before we get into the guide, I want to talk about a few situations where your three words tend to fall apart in practice, because I see these come up constantly.
The first one is when words only work in certain contexts. I have a client who describes herself as ‘polished’. And she is—at work, at dinner, at basically any event where that aesthetic is possible.
But polished doesn’t really translate when you’re getting dressed for the gym or packing for a camping trip. If you swap it for ‘refined’ though, you actually have something to work with across multiple contexts. A refined hiking outfit. A refined weekend look for the farmer’s market. A refined version of whatever you’re doing that day. The feeling (refined) travels even when the aesthetic (polished) can’t.
The other place words fall apart is when you try to express all three equally in every single outfit, or when none of your three words actually capture what you’re wearing on a given day. Which probably happens for most of us more often than we’d like to admit.
Your style words describe the feeling (what) or identity (who). Your Style Recipe is how you translate and execute those words in your actual life. They don’t need equal airtime in every look. They tend to dial up or down depending on the day, which is exactly how style actually works, and exactly what the Recipe handles.
So. I’m excited to finally share the Signature Style Recipe guide.
