Will I suit a fringe?
October 12, 2020
With fringes still hot this Autumn you may be wondering if you should take the plunge? This is no little decision so if you are nervous as to whether a fringe is for you, the answer lies in the proportions of your face. Try this top tip to help you decide…
A well-proportioned face is divided into three equal sections. Place your thumb under your chin and your first finger under your nose – keep that measurement and place your thumb under your nose – keep that measurement again and replace your finger positioning with your thumb. Are the three sections equal? If the answer is ‘yes’ then you’ve got the green light – go for it! However, if your forehead is shorter than the other two sections then adding a fringe probably won’t do you any favours.
Style involves us thinking carefully about where we are putting horizontal lines across our face and body as they can visually shorten (and widen) that area. Which means that if you are shorter in your forehead, a fringe will just accentuate this and not help to achieve that well-balanced look.

The short answer? Yes! But wait for it, there’s more to it than that! Shopping sustainably requires you to buy only things you know you will wear so let’s make sure you find the right yellow for you. Buying the wrong tone might leave you looking a tad under the weather and less likely to wear your new purchase again and again.

This week was Day 1 + 2 of our first Colour Analysis training course so I've been a little busy but, absolutely LOVING the opportunity to share my experience with our new trainees - and what a fantastic group they are!
After months of behind the scenes planning, I am delighted to announce the launch of my new business 'The Style and Colour Academy' and the dates for our first course in Colour Analysis!
Now that the decorations are back in the loft (?), there is no better time for a fresh start, a declutter (or I prefer to use the word 'edit') - it's time to take back control. Of course, this will mean different things for different people. It might be eating more healthily, drinking less alcohol, sorting the finances, organising your wardrobe or clearing out the kitchen cupboards. For me, it's about re-evaluating my priorities in business and ensuring I am working as effectively as possible (oh and all of the above too of course!) .

Doing my own colours.... 'Having your colours done' is not a phrase which means something to everyone. And the 'seasonal system' can appear misleading... people often think if they are a 'Winter' this has a reflection on their character (cold or dark!). So let me enlighten you a little...
