How to wear Merino? not only in winter!

   
I gave a Color Training to the staff of "I love Merino" Boutique in the Mount Manganui last week; and  I was impressed with the variaty of styles and colors that Merino offers! I Love Merino wear is not only for winter season, it can be worn as a basic piece any day of the year! 

Look at Katherine Hiegl’s Spring chic look!   The merino cardigan can be worn over a dress for a more comfy look and even used to replace a jacket for the office. The white shirt goes with everything (skirts, shorts or slacks).  The boots can be paired with a denim skirt or a dress; and let’s not forget the fashionable yellow bag – the perfect way  to add color to any outfit.  A merino cardigan is a great  investment and will, in the end, stretch your dollar by expanding your options. 
With some key pieces in the right colors, tops, scarves, dresses  which can be mixed and matched to create gorgeous combinations that will look great and feel conformable for work or casual.

See below for some examples.

Struggeling to know what to wear? here some tips for stress-free dressing:


Looking good and feeling great means taking care of yourself – both inside and out. So often we are rushed of our feet and don’t really take time out to relax and have some me-time.

Many people today are stressed and need time out. There are so many causes of stress: family pressures, work demands, busyness, and financial pressure. And with all the other stress we have, we don’t need to add our overflowing yet still unworkable wardrobe to the equation.
Does your wardrobe stress you out? Do you feel like you’ve got nothing to wear? Do you go shopping, only to leave empty handed, frustrated and disappointed? You are not alone. It’s a very common problem, but it doesn’t have to be this way.

Here are some tips for stress-free dressing:

Sort your wardrobe out every season

Clutter = stress. Make it easier on yourself by only having viable options to pick from every morning. If you still have half a wardrobe of “skinny clothes” that don’t fit, you’ll only depress yourself. Make sure that your wardrobe is full of clothes that really work for you – they fit well, they don’t need repairing, they are clean, and they mix and match easily.

Know what suits you
If you don’t know what really suits you, then of course shopping is going to be stressful. Once you know what colours suit you, and what styles suit your body-shape you can shop with much more confidence. Check out our services to see how we canhelp.

Have some no-fail outfits
On those days that you don’t know what wear, you can fall back on your no-fail outfits. These are outfits that you know look great on you, tried and true. This could be a great black dress, or your favourite jeans with a gorgeous top and heels. Throw on some accessories and off you go.

Choose your outfit the night before
This is a great option for those of you who are definitely not “morning people”. Prepare all your clothing the night before, so that in the morning, you can just hop straight into it, accessories and all, and leave the house looking stylish.
 
Shop wisely
You can make shopping so much easier on yourself if you follow a few simple guidelines. Make a list of what you want. Only buy items that go with 3-4 other things you already own. Wear clothes that are easy to take on and off.
