Do or Don’t Do Double Denim
Tuesday, 26 January 2010
Long before I embarked on a career as an Image Consultant I learnt from a very early age (as did many 80’s kids) that double denim was the ultimate fashion crime. Denim head to toe is not a good look on anyone unless you are auditioning for status quo. Stone wash 80’s double denim is the worst of all but even matching your dark and your light denim together is just pure wrong. Or is it?
The double denim no no is being given the yes yes by many celebs of late and is now set as one of the key trends for 2010 spring/summer YIKES!! And I have to say when you see the models on the D&G, Chloe and Ralph Lauren catwalks rocking the double denim look , I do think maybe we could do it too and do denim twice as nice? The high street is now full of jeggings, jackets, skirts, blouses and shirts all in denim so just in case you decide to go against all that you have learned about crimes of fashion, here are my top tips on how to wear double denim this season:
· Don’t go for the same weight of denim, layer different weights e.g. a heavier denim jacket with a lightweight denim shirt
· Break up your denim look with a wide belt. Belt your boyfriends denim shirt over your skinny’s add heels and away you go
· Team your denim with lux fabrics such as velvet, satin, silk and sequins for a more styled look
· Mix up the textures using patchwork denim teamed with frayed jeans etc.
· Mix up the shades of denim. Boys stick with the darker indigo or black jeans and team with blue denim jacket
· If in doubt do dark denim on your bottom half and light denim on the top
Good luck with daring the double denim look of the season!!

My own Wardrobe Weed pictures
Wednesday, 13 January 2010
I know I am always banging on about weeding out your wardrobe at this time of the year so I thought I would show you the results of my very own wardrobe weed to spur you on. I had a weeding session over the holidays and I feel so much more in love with my clothes again and can find everything I need. It is like having a brand new array of wonderful clothes at your finger tips and I feel oh so smug knowing behind those doors and drawers there is a neat and tidy me! Go on give it a go or if you can't face it get me round to help. See my current offer http://www.feelbrandnew.co.uk/blog.html
Now, these pictures might suprise you as I know many of my clients presume as an Image Consultant I have an enormous amount of clothes in some fancy swanky walk in wardrobe but honestly I don't as you will see. (The bottom two shelves aren't even mine, they are my husbands, aren't I generous. Don't panic, he does have the other half aswell!).
My tidy Wardrobe
Matching hangers keep your clothes all at eye level and also make your wardrobe look more attractive
Tidy underwear drawer - drawer dividers from IKEA are great for organising
Tidy top drawer
All colour co-ordinated, god I am such a Monica!!
Hammer in some nails into the inside of your wardrobe door and Ta Daa, you can see all your lovely beads.
Bangles and rings all tidy and in their place....well almost!
The shoe cupboard and look I have made space for some new ones!
And here is what I will be taking to the charity shop (after my friends have had a rumage first of course!).
