TESTIMONIALS

“A pandemic, a relationship breakdown and halt to my work left me with time to realise I was moving into my late 40’s without having really accepted the changes happening in my life, or having asked who I want to be now. I felt in need of reclaiming myself to feel confident again and so reached out to Hardie.

From the very start Hardie’s compassionate approach put me at ease. She guides you with care and gentle encouragement back to the essence of yourself, in a process that transforms any feelings of worry or apprehension into discovering the joy in being you again. Her approach is so complete and much more than I had anticipated. She brings to light your style in all areas of your life, from how you present yourself, to how you feel, so that your innate self becomes present in your work, life and relations. She has the gift of intuitive connection and the effects have had a profound and long lasting ripple effect, that has altered the course of my work and how I see myself entirely. It’s truly one of the best gifts I have given myself.”

– Tamsin, Bordeaux, France

“Needless to say, shopping with Hardie in Paris was beyond fun!

After many visits to the city, Hardie has cultivated a list of favorite spots loaded with chic treasures for beauty, home, and the wardrobe. She smoothly navigates the Parisian neighborhoods, popping in and out of the most inspired locales- from elegant to esoteric.

Hardie has a savvy ability to understand someone’s existing style and how to build on it to go in a fresh direction. While I tend to repeat patterns of shopping and return to the same styles over and over, Hardie made suggestions in Paris to try new colors and styles that would work with my height and shape. My now “go-to favorite” dress is a magenta, eyelet tunic with a high ruffled neck and puff sleeves. I never would have tried it if Hardie had not placed it in my dressing room!”

OUTFIT OF THE WEEK | fall dinner party I always t

OUTFIT OF THE WEEK | fall dinner party

I always think of October as the month that people all of the sudden become the hostess-with-the-mostess. Organizing dinner parties, harvest parties, tailgating parties, etc.

Maybe they’re practicing for the holidays, I don’t know. But it sure is fun.

I’ve created a moodboard for THIS WEEK’S OUTFIT to inspire you for your next dinner party invite whether it be a casual affair or something more fancy dancy.

This look is about versatility and using my favorite style trick HIGH / LOW.

Just to note, these looks I create each week are to inspire you to FIRST look in your wardrobe to see your clothes in a new light. I also provide you with solutions to items that might help you pull the look together.

THE AUTUMN TRANSITIONAL SEASON . . . It’s the i

THE AUTUMN TRANSITIONAL SEASON . . .

It’s the in-between seasons season.
It’s the not-hot-but-not cold weather season.
It’s the ‘I am dying to wear my boots and blazer’ season.
It’s the ‘cold in the am but hot by lunch’ season.
It’s the pull out your favorite accessories season.

So, what are you supposed to wear?

STYLE TIPS
🔸 Wear the blazer or the cashmere cardi with those barrel-legged jeans. But wear a tank top and chunky sandals because you’re going to be hot as hell by lunchtime.

🔸 Wear a contrasting-colored pair of socks with your sandals. You can take them off when said temps are hot and you’ll also increase the sandal’s CPW.

🔸 One of my fall outfit favs : Pull-on a great pair of boots and white, wide legged denim pants, layer your favorite necklaces over a simple t-shirt and call it a day.

🔸 Pair your cargo pants with an oversized cotton turtleneck sweater and a great pair of tennies. Extra points if you wear a ribbed tank top under just in case 🥵

🔸 And, have fun playing around with those wonderful scarves and hats you so quickly packed away last spring. Accessories are a terrific way to express yourself!

xo, Hardie

HOW IS YOUR WARDROBE FEELING + LOOKING THESE DAYS?

HOW IS YOUR WARDROBE FEELING + LOOKING THESE DAYS?

I always think Fall is the BEST time to really get in there and organize your wardrobe. I like to make sure it is set up to not only inspire me but to also be a place that calms me - aka void of clutter!!!

If you're in the northern hemisphere, you're already getting into that BACK TO SCHOOL organizing mode so why not focus on organizing your wardrobe as well?

Want to know my favorite TIPS to declutter your wardrobe so you can feel inspired and calm as well?

👜 Start with a CATEGORY of clothing (blouses, pants, skirts, etc) and ask yourself these questions for each ITEM :

👚 Does it reflect your personal style?
If not 👉🏻 thrift, sell, give to a friend....

👗 Have you worn it in 3 years? ( I'm giving you a pandemic allowance here )
If not 👉🏻 thrift, sell, give to a friend....

Does it fit properly? Can it be altered?
If not 👉🏻 thrift, sell, give to a friend....

🧥 Are you hanging onto it because you spent a sh*t ton on it??
If so 👉🏻 Sell it!

👙 Do you look at it and bad memories surface?
If so 👉🏻 thrift, sell, give to a friend....

👡 Do you LOVE how you look or feel in it?
If not 👉🏻 thrift, sell, give to a friend....

👖 Would you buy it again if you saw it in the store today?
If not 👉🏻 thrift, sell, give to a friend....

If after going through this exercise you feel like you are uninspired with what's remaining in your wardrobe I have created a Wardrobe Guide that will help lift you out of your style rut.

As always, let me know if I can be of help. I am here.

WHAT ACTUALLY IS STYLE? Style is simply the manne

WHAT ACTUALLY IS STYLE?

Style is simply the manner or a particular way of doing something.

In regards to your personal style, it's not only how you dress but it's also the way you conduct yourself and the way you present yourself through the choices you make.

And, the choices you make - whether you’re intentional with them or not express who you are and tell your story.

So, I ask, what story are you telling??

You see, we each have our own way of doing things which really is a culmination of all our own life’s influences and experiences and is what really makes each one of us truly unique.

Once you realize the power of style it snowballs from there. Your life will go on a different path.

If you are looking for a promotion, to date, or to better your social life - your wardrobe will help facilitate that.

I am very passionate about helping women rediscover, discover or hone in on what makes the way they approach life truly unique to them. I love helping them understand where their style influences come from and how to tell that story.

This process is the cornerstone of my 6-week style masterclass.

It might seem simple and maybe even silly at first but never underestimate the power of style. 💫

Book a call with me if you're interested in finding out more about my Second Act Masterclass.
