Never have anything to wear? Let Bridget help with her top 5 tips for nailing that “go get em, easy, everyday style” we’re all looking for!

Bridget’s tips to get you started

Tip 1: Freshen up your wardrobe in an instant by simply arranging your clothing into colours. Start with white at one end of your wardrobe and create a rainbow of colour to black at the other. This is a simple technique enabling you to clearly see what gaps you may have in your collection. Making a list in your phone of styles you’re missing will be really helpful on your next shopping trip and will put a stop on impulse buying too! Tip 2: Don’t be afraid to try new styles! That’s right! If you admire something in store but think “oh that’s not for me” pick it up and try it on! You might surprise yourself. Tip 3: Investing in classic pieces that will stand the test of time is a great way to shop sustainably. Classic styles are the ones that “go with” everything. A crisp white shirt and a great pair of jeans are a must for all wardrobes. Tip 4: Creating a capsule wardrobe is key to getting dressed each day without the stress. Multiple looks with just 10 pieces in similar colours and shades will save you time and money. Don’t over think it! Shades of blues and whites work really well, as do neutrals with white. Tip 5: Investing in a classic trench coat and a selection of blazers is a great way to make transeasonal styling easy. Remember: blazers aren’t only for the office. Popping one on over jeans and your favourite T-shirt, will elevate your everyday style in an instant. A personal styling experience is so much more than just clothes and accessories, it’s about selfcare and having the opportunity to create the very best, most confident version of you. Mum Bridget knows that just a few simple changes to the way you dress can have an enormous impact on how you feel. Put yourself first Mama, overhaul your wardrobe, redefine your style and watch the magic happen! Celebrity and Personal Stylist Bridget Bell – Founder of Style Ambition. www.styleambition.com.au
