What Does “Style” Mean to You?
The beauty of PERSONAL style is that it's YOURS
Style is so much more than just clothes! It's a way of expressing who you are and how you feel about yourself. It's a language, a statement, and sometimes even a form of self-care.
One of my favorite style girlies on Instagram, @ohheyykay, says it best, "It's in you, not on you," I love that because the majority of the time, that's the case. Now, SOMETIMES you can wear something that makes a BANG!!
But what does style mean to you?
For some, it's a creative outlet, a way to play and experiment with many elements. For others, it's about practicality and finding comfort in simplicity. The beauty of PERSONAL style is that it's YOURS—it evolves with you and reflects your unique story.
My style has shifted slightly through the years. There were seasons where I leaned into trends and others where I felt most comfortable in timeless classics. I played with color and statement jewelry. But the one constant has been this: You see (me) Sparkle in everything I've worn.
This week, I want you to think about your style journey. How has it changed over the years? What pieces in your wardrobe make you feel most you? Whether drawn to bold prints, minimalist neutrals, or a mix of both, your style is valid and worth celebrating.
Let's redefine what style means together. If you're feeling inspired, share your thoughts with me—I'd love to feature your stories in an upcoming issue.
Try This:
1. Take 10 minutes to journal what style means to you and how it reflects your personality.
2. Identify three words that describe how you want your style to make you feel (e.g., confident, fun & funky, elegant).
3. Look at your favorite outfit—what elements do you love about it? Use that as a guide for future outfit choices.
4. Create a small mood board (physical or digital) representing your ideal style aesthetic.
5. Spend a day wearing something that feels authentically "you" and note how it impacts your confidence.
Question For You:
What's one word or phrase that best describes your style? For me, it’s the casual chic and slightly elevated vibes😉.
