An end of the summer event just popped on your calendar, when do you start thinking about your look?

Right away?

The week before?

The day of?!

You can probably imagine that I am in the 'right away' category. Guilty. When you take the time to plan out your look, it makes getting ready a breeze, your mood is up and likely those around you are in high vibes too. Also, when you like your outfit, you feel more confident, you're more likely to make eye contact, stand with better posture and interact with others. Not to mention, have a better time! So why is it that some of us still wait to the last minute to plan their look?

Next time you have an event pop up on your calendar, consider these few things:

Do I already have something in my wardrobe that would be perfect for this occasion? Great! Prioritize trying it on at least 2 weeks before your event to make sure it fits as remembered and you you have all of your needed accessories.
Want something new? Consider if you need to center the look around a specific garment. Beach wedding and limited on footwear? I always start with a look's 'non-negotiable' piece.
If buying something new, can you think of other events you can wear it for? Let's normalize outfit repeating and invest in quality wardrobe pieces. I love seeing my clients invest in a garment and feel so amazing in it that they WANT to re-wear it.

That same thought process is exactly what inspired me to create my Style the Season Masterclass—a chance to plan your wardrobe with intention before the rush of the new season.

On Friday, September 12th at Noon EST (on Zoom), I’ll walk you through Fall/Winter’s most exciting runway looks and show you how to make them work for your real life. From the season’s hottest colors to which trends are worth the investment (and which to skip), you’ll leave with clarity, confidence, and even shopping links to make updating your wardrobe simple.

Seats are limited—grab your seat before the price goes up. If you can’t attend live, don’t worry—I’ll send the full recording right after.

This week here are 8 fully styled looks for your end of summer soiree.
