If you're already Dressing Your Truth, you know how to express your true beauty. But you still have to put together an outfit every day. So let's look at some tips (specific to your Type) to help you when you open up that closet…
Outfit Tips for Every Type
- Bright, Animated Type 1
Putting together an outfit might not look like a process for you—not a structured one anyway. That's great! Embrace your random, spontaneous nature and put on whatever feels fresh. Once you're dressed, stop long enough to check in that you're wearing something that feels fun to you.
Pay attention to what Marcy says in the video about her biggest reward with mixing color.
- Subtle, Soft Type 2
Your attention to detail is a strength, so don't let the details overwhelm you. If you want to wear a particular item, start there. Then enjoy assembling details around that favorite item. You might be more willing to try something new if you remind yourself that you don't have to repeat anything you don't like.
Watch the video to see how Anne paired two colors she normally wouldn't. She looks great!
- Rich, Dynamic Type 3
Like a Type 2, you might choose an item you want to wear and build an outfit around it. But you'll be more swift about it. Make sure your closet's set up for quick, practical results. If your priority item for the day isn't working, you can scrap it and go with an outfit you know will work. Just try again later.
In the video, Sarah talks about items she likes to build an outfit around, and I explain my funny approach to clothes I haven't worn recently.
- Bold, Striking Type 4
When you're Dressing Your Truth, you have a high standard for what you keep in your closet and put on your body. That's great! Don't add anything to an outfit that doesn't meet your standard. If you don't like something—even if it's an item that worked for you in the past—don't feel obligated to hold onto it. Just keep perfecting your wardrobe.
I wonder how many Type 4's share Sheryl's experience with bold color.

- When you think about outfit ideas, remember to also think about movement. The list of your Beauty Profile key words in my book explains your movement—including the way you put together an outfit! Read through the list again with this in mind and embrace your own unique process.
- Create a style library. It doesn't have to be professional or high-tech. Just take a picture of today's outfit with the camera on your phone. Putting together an outfit with what you have becomes that much easier when you have an archive of cute outfit ideas you already came up with!
- Try new things and listen to YOUR style. You have a beauty sixth sense: use it.
