Struggling With Your Style? Here's How to Make It Work for You
Lauren Squared: Mastering Style, Business, and Life with Lauren Messiah
Hi Fashionistas!
Fall is upon us, and with the change in season comes the opportunity to make some wardrobe tweaks to elevate your personal style.
If the idea of refreshing your wardrobe feels overwhelming, you’re not alone. Many of my clients share your concerns. They want to develop a signature look that feels authentic, effortless, and comfortable—that’s also stylish. They want to dress in a way that reflects who they are—at this stage of their lives—but they’re unsure where to begin.
Does that sound like you?
We’ve all faced style struggles at some point, often because we’ve built our wardrobes around outdated advice or external influences that don’t truly align with who we are.
Why personal style can feel so tricky
Many of us take style cues from family, friends, or society—without investing time to create a look that’s truly our own. And with the ever-evolving fashion landscape, it’s easy to cling to a wardrobe of neutral basics that lack authenticity and personality—the very things that make style exciting.
For mature, professional women, concerns about bodily changes, looking modern and fresh, and conveying appropriate levels of professionalism can add to the complexities of navigating our professional images. So where do we start?
It all begins with one choice
We often overlook the important role that style plays in our daily lives, and the key to overcoming this is to start being intentional about your personal style.
Take advantage of those small pockets of time in your day (commuting, waiting in line, etc.) to immerse yourself in style inspiration.
