There really is something to being ‘put together’ and I don’t mean that in a Posh Spice way. Whatever the look from hipster to preppy…. to ironically preppy hipster, getting the ensemble to play in the same key is crucial. This requires some vision.

Visions don’t have to just pop up in your head like some Basquiat explosion of schizophrenic creative genius. They can come to be in a process of self-discovery. When I worked in an office the proper attire came so unnaturally to me that I had to rip out fashion-forward ‘career girl’ pictures from magazines and tape them to my closet wall. I just don’t do business wear, so I’d end up looking like a sales associate at Victoria’s Secret. Borrowing a vision is better than no vision to get through a rough start.

Another trick is the uniform trick. Get one vibe down perfectly and sport it every day with minor variations. There is such thing as too much vision.

Lastly, complete the vision. Details have more importance than they sometimes get cred for.  The wrong makeup, shoes and bags, and even undies can throw a vision off. Be aware and have intention with what you choose. Don’t stress yourself out or anything, just be aware.
