Dressing with Intent – 3 Ways to define your look

The sporty look
The sporty look is expressed by flowing lines colors and forms, providing ease of active movement. Clothes with lots of details and accessories are usually left out in lieu of functionality and comfort. The sporty look is comfortable and stress free. Accessories are usually a no-no in this look. Go with comfortable shoes – sneakers, sandals. Make up shades need to be natural colors…when was the last time you saw a tennis player with bright red lipstick?! Hair styles are typically shorter and if left long are typically left in a ponytail with a basic tie. Floral perfumes are good for the sporty look as long as they are subtle and aren’t too overpowering
The business look
The business look requires a minimalistic but chic approach – clarity, no-nonsense, functional, comfort and minimalistic with details. Decorative prints, colors and accents are usually not used. For the business world, subtle is best. This doesn’t mean you can’t stand out, but don’t expect a favorable reaction at the office if you walk in with Gauchos or that cute sundress. Stick with straight lines, neutral colors and soft accessories like a nice watch, earrings and necklace set. Matching accessories typically work the best for the business look. For metals, use gold for a warm colored look and silver for a cooler tone with blacks and greys.
The romantic look
The Romantic look is typically comprised of a lot of flowing lines, lots of decorative accents and details. It is pretty much everything that the business look is not. This style is characterized by furs, lace, embroidery, large collars, ruffles and layered fabrics. Pants can work in the romantic look but skirts are the norm for this classic style. The colors of this style are typically light, non abrasive, complimentary and warm. This look uses a lot of accessories. Try mixing and matching different pieces to get a truly unique and eclectic look.Hairstyl4es vary but just like everything else with the romantic look, are usually bold, curly and colorful.
