MAMAM!A FASHION PODCAST #2 – Colour Matching

SO proud of this podcast all about #colourmatching for the hugely popular Nothing To Wear for MamaM!a

MamaMia is one of the biggest womens media companys in the world

It’s literally jam-packed with loads of insight I’ve accumulated from over a decade studying the 4×4 Colour Seasonal Analysis System

I MODERNISE & PERSONALISE every palette because the 1980’s system needs a *little* update and I can do this because of my 15 years working as an International Fashion Designer

There’s also a fantastic article (even if I do say so myself) to accompany the podcast all about how I came to find this system, some of the history of colour on the high-st and REAL genius behind colour analysis

MINDFUL PERSONAL SHOPPING – SYDNEY MORNING HERALD

Chuffed to have been included in Damien Woolnough’s article, the Style Editor at Sydney Morning Herald, on mindful shopping (click for link to article)

With the increased cost of living, this is the time to re-set your thinking and approach to ‘new season trends’

If we get caught up in the hamster wheel of fast moving fashion trends then we’ll forever be over consuming, but if we take a step back and view the fashion landscape with a focus on ‘contemporary classics’ like I shop for my personal styling clients, your shopping satisfaction increases whilst your consumption decreases.
