Nicole Griffiths, founder of Love Your Look, walks us through how she helps many women and men discover confidence through styling, ensuring the right colour to uplift and evolve your image. Here, she shares her unique method with Style of the City.
Is your current image holding you back in your professional or personal life? Are you feeling lost and invisible wearing bland neutrals like black, navy or grey? Is your look dated or frumpy and not giving you joy and confidence in how you look?
You’re not alone. So many of my clients have come to me with these same problems, and they’ve learned how to dress for the life they want, looking and feeling fabulous every day.
Investing in your image is one of the most rewarding investments you can make. You’ll feel joy in how you look every day, which gives you oodles of self-confidence to achieve things you could only imagine before. I’ve seen it time after time with so many of my clients. Not to mention saving you time and money shopping too, as you’ll know exactly what works for you, avoiding costly mistakes and becoming a more sustainable shopper.
So, how can I help you? Firstly, it’s about understanding what colours and prints instantly lift your features, give you radiance, make your eyes sparkle and draw the eye to you. The wrong colours can cast shadows on your face, washing you out, jarring your features or being too overwhelming. Ultimately, they can make you look ill and older! I’m sure you’ve got clothes in your wardrobe that you avoid wearing for that exact reason! After colour analysis, you’ll understand why a specific tone, depth and clarity of colours look incredible on you whilst others don’t work so well. After a colour analysis session, you’ll discover a range of new colours you look incredible in. There are more uplifting neutrals than black and navy and accent colours you can’t wait to start wearing. With your personal swatch wallet in hand, you can make the right choices and know how to put outfits together.
This doesn’t just apply to your clothes; you can use this method for your best hair colours, makeup and accessories such as jewellery, glasses, and hats. Applying makeup in your colour palette is just as transformative; I teach you how to do all this yourself at home so you can replicate your best looks every day.
The other part of the jigsaw to get right is your Style. Achieving your best looks is all about understanding your own Style and owning it! This is a revelation for many people as it gives them the confidence to go off and be themselves, no matter the occasion. You’ll feel confident and empowered in work, knowing you look the best version of yourself. Remember, people judge you within the first 10 seconds of meeting you, so making that correct first impression matters, and if you’ve already won them round before speaking, that’s half the battle! Learning your best clothing lines, shapes and fabrics that showcase your shape, height scale, and proportions means you’ll always look and feel your very best no matter what life throws at you!
