“Style can’t be bought, it comes from intentional thought” 🎤 wait actually there’s more to say 😆⬇️ It’s easy to think that having beautiful stuff = beautiful style because we’re constantly sold to with beautiful images that evoke amazing emotions. Aesthetics is all about emotion! 😍 We equate those emotions with that new item BUT What we’re being sold to is an image of something already styled beautifully. We’re being sold the end result, not the process of how it got there. 😨 We excitedly buy it dreaming how it will fit in beautifully with our stuff. Once we’re home, we’re left with an item that likely doesn’t vibe with our stuff precisely because it’s new. 😅 Putting things together takes time to figure out 🕙 Instead of reading another “must-have” holiday outfit list spend some time getting up close and personal with your closet. If you need a fun nudge to get you started 😉 take my VIBE style class.

The difference? Defining what you want 👀 Style isn’t circumstantial. Style is intentional 👇🏽 It’s not dependent on the type of clothes, body, or budget you have. Coco Chanel says it’s an attitude. I like to say it’s trusting your inner stylist 💗 Subconsciously you know what you love & want but for many of us our innate desires have been pushed down for years, everytime we shut out our intuition. That’s why I created the YAS Method. 🙌🏽 Define👀 Create💃🏾 Share 📸 These are the 3 Steps of the YAS Method 👉🏽 they’re a mindset shift against 3 blockers to trusting our inner stylist - comparison, consumption, criticism. If you feel like you’ve invested a lot in your style but still something isn’t sitting ‘right’ or you’re second guessing and comparing yourself with others…THAT is exactly what the YAS Method is for! Connecting to our subconscious is deep work but our eyes are a short circuit to it 😉 especially when it comes to your style. Learning how to observe more than compare is how you start to see your ‘same old stuff’ in an entirely new way. And it’s so dang FUN too! 🙌🏽 Try it out in the VIBE outfit styling class. I’m an aesthetic person. How things look matters to me, a lot. Embracing that instead of fighting is when things changed. I tried & tried to push it down, ignore or tell myself I’m being unreasonable or materialistic for wanting a beautiful home while raising kids….that just created more guilt. Here’s what helped most: 1) Defining what I wanted most from my home. 🏠 The answer was unexpected: a space that inspired me & my family to create 🎨 2) Giving myself permission to invest time, energy,💵 to do so 3) Including my family in my home dream both practically helping and understanding why it’s important to mommy 💗 Can you relate? Let me know below, I’d love to hear it. You’re an aesthetic - someone who prioritizes aesthetics over order & function. Or if you’re like I was for years…
You might be a suppressed aesthetic, trying to minimize/push down how important aesthetics are to you. ❤️🩹 But going back to capsule wardrobes…🤓 As an aesthetic you likely own a lot of stand out beautiful pieces that are harder to style together. Sooo trying to identify a few key staples to repeat is much harder with the type of items you have. Hence feeling constrained by capsule wardrobes. 😕 Here’s what to do instead 👇🏽 Focus on defining what attracted you to the pieces you own… there’s a red thread of design elements and principles that ties them together (psst it’s your aesthetic style 🤗) and that’s how you tap into outfit inspo that feels like ‘you’. How do you find your aesthetic style? Inside my signature program: YAS Stylists where you’re the stylist your home & closet need most ;) Instead of seeing your Pinterest board as a shopping list, see it as a recipe 🤓
Our eyes see the recipe but we’re overthinking it 🫠 too much in our heads because most style advice is fixated on items - wide leg pants or skinny jeans, mid-century modern or farmhouse… Okay but the real question is: what do those items indicate about what you find personally beautiful? Shopping is easy 👉🏽 styling (pulling it together) takes vision. That’s where I can help 💗 with a one-of-a-kind VISUAL quiz to block out that mind clutter and see the red thread in all those different styles on your Pinterest board 😍 Read more about the YAS Quiz here and how to take it inside YAS Stylists. |
