The Heart and Soul of Style

A few weeks ago I was walking down the street in Milan with two of my bestie girlfriends, Marta and Lara (I love that they are sisters). We had just celebrated the birthday of one’s partner. It was a night filled with laughter and dancing.

We started talking about style, trends, stereotypes, and vibes.

We each had our own phases in time

I went from a baby punk, to a hippie, to a club girl, to a professional… each identity change was a whole new wardrobe, a whole new look and feel to me. I was expressing what was going on in my life at that time. What my values were. What my lifestyle was about. How I was spending my time.
These are stereotypes. That why we have them. A collective of people all make a somewhat subconscious agreement that if you live this way, that’s what it looks like.

Marta went on to say all her different style transitions went from her edgier side, to her bohemian side… and then she said, but that not what it’s about…

“It’s really about having fun.”

This is the truth. Fun, pleasure, experiment, play, express, be where you are.

Now, more than ever, we’re able to cross lines of certain stereotypes and just play with how we feel and what we want to express.
But here’s the deal. It can get really confusing when you have no idea how to get clear on how you feel and express that in a physical form.

Don’t worry, I got your back. I made a new meditation for you: The Heart and Soul of Getting Dressed. It’s a way for you to make decisions about what to wear daily for your body. This is The Somatic Styling Method™️.

Can’t wait to see you there and support you, whatever style phase you’re in.
