I don’t mean are you dating yourself as in taking yourself out to dinner. I mean, are you dating yourself in that your old soul is making an appearance in your sense of style and making you look older than you actually are. Now, I’m all for the individual with an old soul. I have an old soul! When I was a kid, many of my friends were older than me and I LOVED to wear my mom’s clothing. Now, that may be typical of many young girls, but I literally dressed like my mom when I was in highschool. Thank goodness she was fashionable!! But I also loved to listen to old music – 50s and 60s music – whoop whoop and watch old movies – Gone with the Wind (classic)!!! None of this stuff is bad. It’s actually a part of my charm (at least that’s what I call it – lol). But in all seriousness, having an old soul and looking like an old soul is not always the best combination. Now I can admit that I have days where I look like I’ve come out of a time warp. I can’t help it!! I love big hair, I love shoulder pads. I did grow up in the 80s afterall. However, there are ways of combining the world of the old with the world of the new to create a happy medium. Here’s some tips on how:
– Here is the reason for the team of stylists – my brow professional is AH-mazing with brows and mustaches – lol. Hey if you can’t laugh at yourself, well…..
– Result of having a team. Does wonders doesn’t it?
– The hat is a bit dated but I rocked it. Well, maybe not. Too far? I understand. lol
– My friend asked me to model for her business – Zipsessories – accessories for your zippers. I was nervous as anthing as I had not modelled in a really long time and was just getting my body back after babies. But you could not tell from the photo – that’s what confidence does.
So what am I really telling you here? Coles notes version: in everything you do – seek sound counsel, revel in what you love to make it your own, and do it all with confidence. Incorporate this into all areas of your life and watch yourself take off.
Remember, believe in you,
