Some people are born with it and some have to work for it… Style, like any other art, for some comes natural while other’s need to make an effort to master it.

If you want to learn how to be stylish, you need to do some homework, experiment and experience.

Most of the girls, that make it look effortless, make a substantial effort when styling their outfits.

In an interview for the Canadian Fashion site, Fabulous after 40, I said to Deborah about Style in general … that you either have it or you don’t. But in retrospect, even though it is the case for some people, I believe, style can be cultivated.

Following the blogs you love and reading magazines will educate you, no doubt. But your style and taste level will improve with observing beauty everywhere in nature, in art, in architecture….

It not always about finding your unique signature style, or making a fashion statement. It’s about balancing what you feel with what you wear in a tasteful way. Feminine, androgynous… professional… trendy …. the key to all, is confidence. And confidence comes with knowledge…
