Learn your Type of beauty and start Dressing Your Truth

Because women who Dress their Truth know exactly what would look great on them before they even take it off the rack.

Try these tips to simplify your shopping experience.

1. Shop in a way that’s comfortable for your Type.

Every Type of woman in my Beauty Profiling system expresses a different movement—even when she shops. Make it a great experience by honoring your movement.

Click here for specific shopping tips for your Type.

2. Look for colors first.

When looking for clothes that are true to your Type, always scan the racks for color first. You’ll eliminate a lot of extra options this way and have more shopping success.

3. Love it or leave it.

You have to be able to say, “I love it!” or it’s not worth buying.

Read this blog post for 2 vital questions to ask in the dressing room.

4. Listen to your body.

The more you Dress Your Truth, the more your body will “feel” what is right for you. Take time to try on what you are thinking of buying. If it doesn’t feel right, put it back.

5. Treat shopping like a treasure hunt.

I have fun shopping outside the conventional retail world because I like the challenge of finding great items at thrift and consignment stores. Online shopping is also a great way to find treasures.

Check out our best online shopping tips for every Type.

6. Adapt the trend to fit YOU.

Only try on what is “in style” if it’s right for your Type. Remember: you will always look stylish if you are dressing your truth. We like to support you in knowing which trends will work for your Type.

For seasonal trends, join Dressing Your Truth and get access to all our recorded Club Nights.

7. Create an abundant, affluent mind-set.

Your beliefs create your reality. So create this reality with me: “I always find great pieces at great prices.” “I have the best luck finding things I love that fit me perfectly.”

Whatever you do, avoid this phrase while shopping!

8. Remember the husband rule!

Only take your husband, boyfriend, or whoever goes shopping with you if he or she supports you and has fun. Otherwise, leave him home!

9. Establish a budget.

Know what you can invest in before you go shopping so you feel confident and satisfied with the amount of money you spend.

10. Take advantage of online tools.

Here at Dressing Your Truth, we’re here for you! That’s why we’ve collected hundreds of images and 30+ hours of videos to helping you create a personal style you love.

Plus, our new Online Store makes shopping your truth easier than ever!

Make shopping simple. Only try on things you know will make you look great. Only buy items that work together. And have a wardrobe that you love, on any budget.

It’s easy to learn all that with Dressing Your Truth. You could start today.

It can! My 4 Types Beauty Panel joins me with great tips to help you know how to put an outfit together, easy.

Their outfit tips are specific to the 4 Types in my Beauty Profiling system. Even if you don’t know your Type, their great tips will help you put together outfits that make you look amazing!

We’d love to hear how you play with YOUR wardrobe. Leave a comment and tell us the trick that helps you build a great outfit.

Outfit Tips for Every Type

• Bright, Animated Type 1

Putting together an outfit might not look like a process for you—not a structured one anyway. That’s great! Embrace your random, spontaneous nature and put on whatever feels fresh. Once you’re dressed, stop long enough to check in that you’re wearing something that feels fun to you.

Pay attention to what Marcy says in the video about her biggest reward with mixing color.

• Subtle, Soft Type 2

Your attention to detail is a strength, but don’t let details overwhelm you. Start with a particular item. Then assembe details around it. You might be more willing to try something new if you remind yourself that you don’t have to repeat anything you don’t like.

Watch the video to see how Anne paired two colors she normally wouldn’t. She looks great!

• Rich, Dynamic Type 3

Like a Type 2, you might choose an item you want to wear and build an outfit around it. But you’ll be swift about it. Make sure your closet’s set up for quick, practical results. If your priority item for the day isn’t working, scrap it and go with an outfit you know will work.

In the video, Sarah talks about items she likes to start with, and I explain my funny approach to clothes I haven’t worn recently.

• Bold, Striking Type 4

When you’re Dressing Your Truth, you have a high standard for what you keep in your closet and put on your body. That’s great! Don’t add anything to an outfit that doesn’t meet your standard. If you don’t like something—even if it worked for you in the past—don’t feel obligated to hold onto it.

I wonder how many Type 4′s share Sheryl’s experience with bold color.

Feel like you understand a little more about how to put outfits together? Watch the video to learn more tips and hear the outfit inspiration I get some mornings before I ever look in my closet!

Three more great outfit tips for all Types

• When you think about outfit ideas, remember to also think about movement.

The list of your Beauty Profile keywords in my book describes your movement—including the way you put together an outfit! Read the list again with this in mind and embrace your unique process.

• Create a style library.

It doesn’t have to be professional or high-tech. Just take a picture of today’s outfit with the camera on your phone. Putting together an outfit with what you have becomes that much easier when you have an archive of cute outfit ideas you already came up with!

• Try new things and listen to YOUR style. You have a beauty sixth sense: use it.

Dressing Your Truth is a makeover system that turns all these outfit tips into a simple process.

All the clothes in your closet look amazing together—and, most important, they look amazing on you! Our easy-to-use online training program teaches you how to put together outfits, using 5 key elements customized to the movement of your facial features, body language, and even personality.

Put together great outfits—and look amazing every day! Take the first step by taking my 3-Minute Beauty Confidence Quiz. And if you’ve taken the quiz already, right now’s a good time to…

Her revolutionary makeover program has transformed the look—and lives!—of women all over the world. She wants to help you learn the truth about your beauty so that you can live it, dress it, and love it!

That’s why I talked to Nicole, our Dressing Your Truth stylist. She’s here to save the day with her perfect tips, so you know what to do with a bad haircut.

How to fix a bad haircut at the salon

Stylists want you to leave happy. You feel that pressure, so you might not speak up when your haircut is too short. After all, there’s no way they can make it longer, right?

Give your stylist a chance to help. Watch the video to hear exactly what you can say that any stylist will respond to.

How to fix a bad haircut at home

You can fix a bad haircut without going back to the salon. Before you do anything, though, take a deep breath and give your new haircut a chance.

Maybe this haircut is so different from what you expected that you haven’t considered that this new look might be incredible on you. Get feedback from others you trust and try it out. If it really is as bad as you thought, there are lots of things you can do.

Watch the video for Nicole’s great tips, plus, 4 ways to prevent a bad haircut in the future:

Do you have a bad haircut horror story? What did you do about it? Share your own tips and stories in a comment.

Nicole and I both know that how you feel about your appearance has such a huge effect on empowerment and self-esteem. We want you to love your hair!

How to have a haircut you love

Like we said in the video, an online hairstyle consultation with our world-class stylists is a great resource to help you survive a bad haircut (and prevent it from happening in the first place!).

To schedule an appointment, you need to be a Dressing Your Truth Club Member. Being a Club Member means that you’ll be familiar with our stylists’ approach, so you get the most out of your consultation. If you’re not a member yet, it’s easy to start…

Have a Good Hair Day Every Day

If you’re Dressing Your Truth, but still feel a little uncertain about your hair, notice your movement when you wash, style, and maintain it. Just noticing your tendencies can help you manage them in your best interest so you’re happier with the outcome.

If you’re not yet Dressing Your Truth, get ready for a good hair day every day (even the second day!).

You can learn everything you ever wanted to know about creating every day hair styles that you love. The first step is discovering your Type of beauty. The next step is…

But if you’ve recently heard about Dressing Your Truth, you might have felt a little shocked when you heard a friend or family member say she got rid of all her black clothes.

What? Give Up Black?

Women seem more attached to black than any other color in their wardrobe. If I told you that pink’s not your color—or yellow, or orange—you might be open to the idea. But black?

Yes. Black.

And I think that idea doesn’t freak women out because black makes them look and feel amazing. It’s because they’ve invested in it.

You’ve spent money on black (what percentage of black fills your closet? 20, 30, 60%?). And you’ve spent time wearing it—because black seems like a safe standby whenever you doubt what to wear.

What’s Wrong With Black?

On the movement scale, black is a very still, bold color.

Great news if you’re a still and bold beauty. But in my ground-breaking Beauty Profiling system, I explain that there are actually 4 different Types of beauty that women express naturally.

What happens when you put black on a woman who doesn’t express a bold, striking quality of beauty? The black stays bold, but the woman wearing it looks drab, overpowered, or harsh.

So, if you’re not a bold, striking woman, what do you do?

Perfect Color Substitutes for Black

Women freak out about ditching the black because they don’t know what to replace it with.

Get rid of all your bright yellow clothes and you might not have a big hole in your wardrobe. But black? You have to fill that hole with something.

So what colors have women everywhere used to fill it up?

It depends on her personal Beauty Profile. There are options for every woman out there. My 4 Types Beauty Panel joins me to show off substitutes for black in every Type!

Watch the video to see how each of us have replaced (or embraced!) the black in our look. And find out which one of us had a wardrobe filled with 90% black clothing, got rid of it when she started Dressing her Truth—and hasn’t looked back!

What do you think about our color substitutes? Can you imagine the women on our panel dressed all in black like Sheryl? There’s no way we’d all look as stunning as she does. Leave us a comment and tell us what you think.

So, Which Version of Black is Best For You?

I truly believe that every woman wants to look and feel naturally beautiful.

Dressing Your Truth is an empowering, supportive makeover program that helps you look better and feel more confident than ever before. When you start Dressing Your Truth, you’ll actually feel freed and relieved that so many options are available to bring out your natural beauty.

Take the first step toward looking and feeling more amazing than you ever have by discovering your Beauty Profile—for free.

And if you already know your Type of beauty, why wait any longer?…

I watched Emily (our Dressing Your Truth hairstylist) style my hair. And the way she used the blow dryer looked different from what I did at home. Turns out, I was creating a lot of frizz!

You high-energy Type 1′s and Type 3′s in my Beauty Profiling System are most likely to do exactly what I was doing—but you Type 2′s and 4′s aren’t off the hook.

Stop frizzing your hair…

Emily explains exactly how you might be creating frizz and friction in your hair. And then she doesn’t just explain the trick to fix it—she’ll demonstrate the movement you want to make with your brush and blow dryer. Voilá, no more frizzy hair!

The best part about this tip: It won’t take you any extra time.

Emily’s got several other tricks up her sleeve, so watch the whole video to catch all of them.

I love knowing the secrets to great hair! Leave a comment and share any other blow drying tips you have, especially if they’re specific to your Type of beauty.

Make every day a good hair day

Most women would say money.

This might surprise you, but that’s not true!

Research shows that the average woman has nearly $6,000 in clothes, accessories, and makeup she doesn’t love and doesn’t use. Can you imagine going on a $6,000 shopping spree?

Money is obviously not the solution for a lot of women.

I’ve discovered that something else actually gets in the way of your dream wardrobe. And I want to help you get rid of it, so you can love the way you look.

Where the wardrobe dilemma starts

The fashion industry is really good at creating fashionable clothes—but not at supporting women’s true beauty.

Every few months, the trends change and you’re supposed to switch out your current clothes for new styles. You’re also supposed to own certain wardrobe “basics” that you may not feel comfortable in, or even like!

All these fashion rules support the industry, instead of the women wearing the clothes.

That’s not right!

I’ve suffered from feeling like I had nothing to wear. The problem wasn’t quantity, since I had a closet full of clothes, jewelry and accessories. The problem was that I had a closet full of clothes that were not right for ME and my unique type of beauty.

I was settling and wasting a lot of money.

Now I understand why I felt like I had nothing to wear. And now my closet is filled with clothes and accessories that I love. Your closet can be, too! Here’s how you can do it…

Save your wardrobe (and your wallet) with the 3-3 game

Your closet will tell you what’s not working… you just need to pay attention.

Try this easy exercise and stop wasting money!

Step 1: Items you love

Pick out 3 items from your closet that you absolutely love. It doesn’t matter if they’re shoes, jewelry, accessories, or articles of clothing.

They just need to be items you love and wear all the time. They should make you look and feel great every time you wear them.

Step 2: Items you don’t wear

Now pick out 3 more items. This time, choose items you rarely or never wear. They might be things you thought you loved, but you don’t really like now.

Do you own items that you feel guilty for not wearing more often? Anything in your closet that’s technically a good investment—but you just never reach for it first? Those are good items to choose for this step.

Step 3: The most important part

Figure out which elements each group has in common. Do you love (or avoid) certain items because of the way they feel on your body? What about texture, color, or pattern?

Write two lists: one list of which qualities make an item a favorite, and another list of which qualities describe the clothes that never make it out of the closet.

Next time you go shopping, pay attention to those qualities in the clothes you try on.

No matter what’s trendy this season, you’ll be able to find clothes that fit in with your favorites. Don’t let fashion magazines talk you into anything. Trust yourself!

The ultimate key to wardrobe well-being

What if you could overhaul your wardrobe so that it was brimming with back-to-back gorgeous outfits that made you look and feel great?

What would it feel like to love every item in your closet?

The key is your Beauty Sixth Sense. And every woman’s got one.

Your beauty sixth sense is an internal voice that knows which styles are best for YOU. When you ignore it, you waste money and fill your closet with items that don’t highlight your natural beauty.

Getting back in touch with your beauty sixth sense is vital. But it can take a lot of trial and error. So I want to give you a shortcut:

Take my 3-minute quiz and get more tips to stop sabotaging your wardrobe (and your wallet).

I scratched it out of my seventh-grade yearbook because I truly believed I was ugly.

I wasn’t ugly (wait ’til you see my after picture!), but that lie became embedded in my consciousness for decades—much longer than it ever should have.

It’s a pretty typical experience, and very sad. But I didn’t stay there.

During my many years as an alternative psychotherapist, I’ve seen firsthand the deep wounds that women experience because of their teenage beauty experiences and continual battles with their looks, weight, and self-acceptance.

I’ve met women who continue to feel like I did back then. And that’s just not right!

After seeing that my earlier painful experience was the norm for so many women, I was sure of two things:

1. How we feel about our outer appearance strongly influences our inner peace and confidence.

2. Women can’t all be as ugly as they feel they are.

The problem isn’t women!

So, what’s the real problem?

I’ve identified 7 Fashion Dilemmas that can keep women feeling stuck and ugly.

If you’re lost or getting by in any of these 7 areas, you can experience self-doubt, struggles with your weight, and emotional issues that affect every area of your life.

Take a look at my picture. You can see what a difference it makes to be confident in every area!

Which brings me to the quiz I’ve recently developed.

Over the last decade, I’ve trained tens of thousands of women across the world to bring their natural beauty to the surface in a life-changing way.

My quiz will show you whether you’re confident, getting by, or lost in any of the 7 Fashion Dilemmas. Along with your results, I’ll share some tips to help you skyrocket to beauty confidence.

Take the quiz and share your results and thoughts here in a comment.

Thanks for joining me today.

Are You Trying to Be the Wrong Best?

In your pursuit to look and feel great, you might believe you have to fit a standard that’s not actually best for you. Your version of best and someone else’s version of best might not match up.

It’s good to aim high. But don’t ignore your true gifts and strengths or you might get stuck trying to be someone you are not.

That’s what happened to Michelle. Here’s how she got out of it.

Michelle’s Best, Before and After

Michelle started her Dressing Your Truth journey after years of frustration, attempting to act and look like someone she was not.

She tried to come across strong and tough hoping that it would give her more confidence. She didn’t understand why she readily gained weight and felt depleted so much of the time.

When she discovered she was a Type 2 soft, subtle woman in my Beauty Profiling System, she felt the weight of the world lift from her shoulders. She came home to the power of her gentle, sensitive nature. She embraced her inborn intuitive gifts.

She no longer wanted to look contrary to her true nature and she started Dressing Her Truth.

As you can see in Michelle’s after photo, her naturally elegant quality of beauty is alive and honored. Notice the difference in her eyes and smile in her after photo. Her hair and clothes just support her true, natural beauty.

These days, Michelle looks and feels her best all the time!

What do you think of her makeover? Please leave a positive comment.

So how do you find what’s best for YOU?

Look and Feel Your Best – Inside and Out

The key to looking and feeling your best is honoring the truth about yourself.

Accept and love your true inner nature. Then honor it in your outer appearance with everything you put on. It shows! I’ve seen this transformation happen for thousands of women who have gone through the Dressing Your Truth program.

Dressing your Truth is not just an outer makeover. It’s a supportive system that helps you embrace your natural inner strengths while honoring your outer beauty.

Stop trying to be something you aren’t at the expense of who you actually are. It’s easy to look and feel your very, very best! Find out where to start by taking my 3-Minute Beauty Confidence Quiz.
