Raise your hand if you have a wardrobe full of clo

Raise your hand if you have a wardrobe full of clothes but never can find anything to wear. I honestly can raise mine because that used to happen to me until I figured out what the issue was.

The problem for me was and most likely for you is that you have 42 pairs of skinny jeans in your wardrobe (or insert your favorite silhouette) and so you have what I call a 1-dimensional wardrobe.

Do you want to learn how to create a multi-dimensional wardrobe?

If so, I have created a wardrobe guide that will help you get out of your 1-dimensional style rut once and for all.

Click link in bio or send me a DM with your email and I’ll send it to you!!
FYI, Link in bio is acting weird lately :)

My overall mission with my work as a Style Coach i

My overall mission with my work as a Style Coach is to help rewrite the narrative about women aging. I am doing this 1 woman at a time and I am grateful for this opportunity.

One way to move the needle forward is to connect with others to make a more forceful statement.

Luckily, there are so many wonderful people getting into the aging arena. I am PROUD to announce my collaboration with a wonderful startup called VNV.

VNV is a weekly fashion newsletter that makes it easy to find and buy clothing you love. Designed exclusively for (and by) grown-up women. There is a wonderful team of women in all areas of the fashion industry joining forces to be your go-to fashion resource. Anything from how to find your style, how to pack, how to feel more elevated and the list goes on.

My role with VNV is helping their audience realign with their style because we all know that at some point that style that we used to have faded and we wake up one day wondering how to dress.

Each month I write a monthly column called FINDING YOUR STYLE which includes mood boards from which you can shop. This board is

Classic with a Twist : Weekend Wear

You can shop this board AND join the newsletter by clicking the link in my BIO.

Let me know what you think!

When my clients finish my Style Program I give them a title called an AGE AMBASSADOR.

An age ambassador is a woman who :

💫 is living her life confidently and intentionally

💫 is not allowing aging or the signs of aging hold her back.

💫 she sets the example for women around her both older and younger.

💫 She helps other women out whenever she can.

Once upon a time….

I came across this photo the other day. It’s the home of an old friend and very talented designer who funnily enough is not on IG. Otherwise I’d point you to her wonderful work.

The painting in the middle is mine that I did for her many years ago when her second child was born. Her husband commissioned me to create this for the celebration of his birth.

I haven’t painted in several years and quite honestly, I miss it. I’m really trying to carve that out in my life again.

I’ve learned that the phrase ‘I’ll do that one day’ or ‘next week I’ll start’ is the devil. There’s some weird comfort in ‘one day’. But as we get older unless we plan out our dreams we risk waking up ONE DAY disappointed.

If we want to do something then the only way to do it is to start with something small - today.

What things are you putting off until ONE DAY?

The most common question I’m asked ALLL the time

The most common question I’m asked ALLL the time is . . .

HOW DO I GET OUT OF THIS NEVER-ENDING STYLE RUT?

Despite having a closet full of clothes we can feel like we

a) have nothing to wear
b) or are wearing the same outfit, different colors every. single. day.

I get it. I work with women every day with this issue. And what I find 9/10 is their wardrobe is ONE-DIMENSIONAL.

What do I mean by that?

A ONE-DIMENSIONAL wardrobe is when you basically have one silhouette you wear every day. For example, skinny jeans or wide-legged pants. You were told they look good on you (or you don’t hate how they look on you) so you bought them in 35 different colors and you wear them with the plethora of blouses you have accumulated over the years.

What is happening here is you are wearing - aka EXPRESSING just 1 little part of who you are with this said silhouette. No wonder you are bored and are in a style rut!!!

Style is the way we tell the world who we are. It is a silent language and so it is important to know how we want to feel when we dress.

If you are struggling with this then I have a wonderful guide that will help you get out of your never-ending style rut and start this new year off with a kick in the style department.

Enjoy!

Does anyone else need to take a deep breath and just pause for a moment? I certainly do. It's only January 19th and I feel like I've been on a hamster wheel all month.

And breath......🤍

SUNDAY CHORES
Most Sundays (after sleeping in) I make a yummy cup of coffee and come upstairs to my closet to piddle around.

I do a cleanup from the week and assess what items need my attention : steaming, cleaning, de-pilling, etc.

I also look at my calendar and I see what I have on for the week and begin to make a plan for what I’m going to wear.

Taking the time to do this each week when I’m calm and not rushing out the door helps me be ready for the week and limits the stress.

Does anyone else geek out like this?? 😂

How’s the new year going so far??

I thought about sitting down during the holidays and setting goals for this new year but honestly? I could never quite do it.

I felt like all I was hearing on Instagram or in passing was how everyone was SETTING GOALS or NOT SETTING GOALS. Quite frankly it drove me crazy. 😬

Basically, I’m pretty good at keeping tabs on my habits and being intentional with my life on a weekly basis. Or monthly. It’s the premise of A Year In Style. Hello. 😉

Something that helps me stay focused is I decide on a word each month that helps me set an intention. A theme of sorts.

This month it’s a phrase - massive imperfect action. I have so many balls in the air right now and since I have a tendency to make perfect pictures I’ve decided that done is better than perfect. I set a chime for 8am everyday to remind me of my word.

If you’ve never visited my website, A Year In Style then go have a look. I give you tips on how to be intentional with your life as far as your personal style, lifestyle, beauty routine, and interiors. And, I have a monthly playlist on Spotify you might enjoy. (LINK IN BIO)

My theory is if you are intentional with how you want to live every day and every month then not only will you stay connected with yourself BUT… you’ll be living A YEAR IN STYLE.

Enjoy!!
xo, Hardie
