Jane's Jottings

At the end of March hubby, Kim, officially retired. Which for better, or worse, coincided with when Sydney's 'lock down' started.

He's recently commented that his wardrobe needs an overhaul, to make it more appropriate for his new, non-corporate lifestyle.

This got me thinking about lifestyle changes in general. And how we do indeed need to make sure our wardrobe keeps in-step with our lifestyle needs as well as our appearance and our personality.

With the COVID-19 lock-down most of us have had a major lifestyle change. There have been some funnies on social media about women getting excited about what to wear to take the bins out or to go food shopping. However, the reality is that with fewer places to go and no in-person get-togethers, we've been reaching for our more casual and relaxed clothing. Perhaps even been living in our exercise gear.

In April Pinterest reported the major trend (in the US) was for women searching for lounging outfits. I believe this tallied with an increase in sales of exercise and very casual lounge-wear. There were also strong sales of tops, for all those video work and social virtual meetings!

As we start to emerge from isolation you might find yourself reaching for smarter casual wear. Even if you're still in isolation, you might be over wearing super-casual outfits. If you'd like some inspiration for putting together casual and smarter casual outfits here are some articles for you:

Services

Updated Virtual Colour Analysis Service

I've been providing a virtual, online, colour analysis service for many years now.

In-spite of the technical challenges of providing the service this way, it does work very well. Using a combination of questionnaire and photos you provide (to specific guidelines) I apply virtual 'drapes' to assess your best colours in a similar way to how I'd offer the service in-person.

However, I've now got a full set of virtual drapes and a smart way to apply them to your photos. The new process also uses a better way to capture your questionnaire answers and to supply your photos.

If you'd like to experience the new, improved virtual analysis service, the prices are here (please note I haven't updated that page with the new process yet). And I'll also provide a complimentary Zoom session to discuss your results (worth $175). Simply reply to this email to order.
