This extremely busy and successful writer loves to do yoga and had a very casual appearance even in her work place. Her sandals, casual cotton and yoga attire did not reflect how really talented she is. She holds a very prestigious job as a writer for a well-known and respected celebrity.
This was her daily image before her makeover:
My mission was to glam her up a bit and give her clothes that were as easy and comfortable to wear every day as her yoga clothes. This way, she could run out the door in a hurry, work long hours and still look like she spent a lot of time getting ready for the world each morning.
We changed her hair a bit so that it was easier to maintain and found clothes that were literally ‘throw and go’ dresses and other easy to match pieces. Getting rid of the ankle straps on her sandals elongated her legs and added height to her stature. Now she is just as comfortable as before the makeover but appears much more polished with the same amount of effort as before.
I love the outfit change, but the make-up seems a bit heavy for her—she’s lucky to have such a naturally pretty face (just my opinion).
Hi Kathi,
well explained and illustrated!
hugs,

I’m a big fan of grab and go dresses for a professional look. And I like that she’s wearing color.
