Jane's Jottings

Well here we are almost at the end of 2020. And who could have imagined, back in January, what a year it would be!

Our clothes had become pretty casual even before the virus hit. But this year lounge wear and exercise gear has become the mainstay for many women!

Working at my local Decjuba (in Avalon) has kept me going this year. The clothing styles do seem to be even more comfortable and casual than in previous years. Track pants, sweats, shorts, and t-shirts have been selling well. However, recently the main trend has been for dresses. It seems that even though we still want to be comfortable, we also want to dress up a bit for Christmas get-togethers. Most of our dress styles this year are tiered, long, flowing styles, rather than fit-and-flare styles. I've noticed this trend in many other stores too.

Inspired by some questions from a good friend, I've realised that not everyone knows how to put together an evening outfit, especially a casual evening outfit. So this month's article is all about the style elements that say 'evening', with examples of how to add a few of these elements to casual clothes to create evening looks.

If you're still looking for a gift idea for a special female in your life consider a gift of colour or style, details below.

I wish you a very happy Christmas and look forward to seeing you in 2021!

The Gift of Style

style gift voucher

For a relative or friend who has expressed a frustration with finding clothes, picking colours, or creating outfits that suit them, a gift voucher for some form of style makeover service is a lovely idea.

Or, perhaps you'd like this gift yourself? If so, let the gift giver know and forward this newsletter!

Learning how to dress to like the way you look every day can change the course of your life! When we like how we look, we feel better about ourselves and are more confident to tackle the things we want from life.

I offer gift vouchers for any of my image services (either in person here in Sydney, or any of my online services).

Good starting points are:

An idea for an in-person Colour Analysis or Dressing Your Shape Consultation is to have a consultation yourself and give a gift voucher for your friend to join you (see the group pricing in the service link above).

To order simply reply to this email or phone me on +61 (0)403 747 199 and let me know which gift you'd like to give, or what amount you'd like the voucher for. I'll get back to you for details.

Stepping Up Your Casual Evening Wear

When was the last time you fussed over yourself and got dressed up in a way that felt sassy, fun or sexy? It's that feeling you get when you've given yourself a chance to look and feel special, just because.

I'm not only talking about getting dressed up because your looking for a mate, or going on a date. I'm talking about any kind of evening out.

Do you have pieces in your wardrobe to pull-together an evening outfit that puts you in the right mood for the night?

It can seem like a lost art, but it doesn't have to.

You could be out of practice, or have just forgotten how to pay yourself that kind of attention.

Is it time for a refresher on how to dress up for a casual evening out?
