A C C E S S O R I E S

Accessories, in my opinion, are the secret sauce to elevating any outfit and expressing your unique style!

Whether dressing for a casual day out or an elegant dinner, the right accessories can transform your look from ordinary - you know that feeling when you look in the mirror 🫤 - to extraordinary when you feel unstoppable. 💃

Think of them as the finishing touches that reflect your personality, mood, and individuality.

From statement necklaces that draw attention to your face to a twilly scarf that sets the right tone for the outfit, accessories allow you to play with your style in countless ways.

The beauty of accessories is that they can be swapped out easily, letting you change how you feel/look without changing your outfit.

Remember, style is not just about clothing but is about telling your story and expressing your inner self.

What’s your go-to accessory that makes you feel unstoppable? My favorite accessory go-to lately is an interesting layering of necklaces.

Please share in the comments! 💖

Raise your hand if you have a wardrobe full of clothes but never can find anything to wear. 🙋🏼‍♀️

This used to happen to me until I figured out what the issue was.

The problem is you have what I call a 1-dimensional wardrobe. You have a closet full of clothes but it consists of 42 pairs of skinny jeans in different colors (or insert your favorite silhouette here).

When you only have 1 maybe 2 different silhouettes in your wardrobe you are limiting yourself and you are not expressing the multiple parts of who you are.

Our clothes help us tell our story.

And THAT is why you feel you wear the same thing over and over again, aka a style rut.

Do you want to learn how to express the many layers of your authentic self?

If so, I have created a wardrobe guide that will help you understand a style rut and will help you get out of it once and for all.

E S S E N C E

As a style coach, I’m dedicated to helping women celebrate their essence as they age.

There are many reasons why, but as we age, our confidence in how we show up starts to plummet, both in how we dress and in how we live.

I know that feeling all too well.

I remember when I started aging after going through surgical menopause, I struggled with my own style and confidence. It was a turning point for me, and it’s why I do what I do today.

I love helping women age with confidence, whether by sharing my passion for style through inspiring outfit ideas, style tips and tricks, or ideas for living intentionally every day.

Follow along for intentional living inspiration and practical style tips to feel your best at every stage of life. 💫

S E L F . C A R E

With so much happening in the world, it’s easy to get caught up in constant worry and put yourself last.

I hear from women all the time that they feel guilty doing something just for themselves. They’ve spent years taking care of others, and self-care feels selfish.

But here’s the truth: Taking time for YOU isn’t selfish - it’s essential.

You can take care of others AND prioritize yourself at the same time. In fact, when you’re grounded, healthy, and content, you’re better equipped to share your gifts and care for others.

So, what would filling your own cup look like today?
✨ Taking an hour to read, paint, or call a friend
✨ Eliminating digital scrolling from your morning routine
✨ Savoring a quiet cup of tea with your journal
✨ Committing to 30 minutes of daily yoga

Self-care doesn’t have to be grand - it just has to feel good to you. When you honor yourself, you set the foundation for a life that’s balanced, joyful, and intentional.

What’s one thing you’ll do for yourself today? Let me know in the comments - I’d love to hear.

J A N U A R Y

Did you know that the premise of AYIS is to live intentionally every day, every week, and every month, thus living A Year In Style?

My goal with AYIS is to support you through this journey and encourage you to focus on ways to ELEVATE yourself and your life, and to be intentional throughout the year - month by month.

Each month I choose a theme that aligns with the rhythms of that season and give you tips to elevate your personal style, lifestyle, interiors, and wellness/beauty routine.

The theme for JANUARY is to Simplify.

Simplifying all areas of your life.

How do I do that, you ask?

By knowing what works for you and what does not. It’s letting go of old beliefs + behaviors and embracing a lighter feeling with those decisions.

It’s letting go of the “I wish I was ...” or the “I should have...” or the painting of perfect pictures.

You can apply this to all areas of your life including your personal style, lifestyle, interiors, and beauty routine.

For instance, in order to simplify your wardrobe you can edit out those pieces you never wear that create dead weight every time you walk into your closet. Give them away or sell them. The goal is to clear out anything that isn’t working for you.

If you are not familiar with the AYIS website, head over there and find out all the tips I have for you this month (and every month). Link in Bio.

xo, Hardie

O N . A G I N G I remembered a great talk I once

O N . A G I N G

I remembered a great talk I once heard at @canyonranch Tucson. It left me with one guiding light that has stuck with me ever since:

It’s better to focus on how we feel as we age than how we look.

Aging affects us all differently, shaped by our genes, experiences, habits, and attitudes. While we can’t control our genes, we do have the power to shape our habits and attitudes.

Until about age 45, most of us see little outward impact from aging, no matter our lifestyle. But after that, it starts to show. That’s why creating an aging plan can be a game-changer.

When those first signs of aging appeared for me - a wrinkle here, a shift there, I was a little thrown. It can be confronting, especially when society often pushes us to fight it at all costs.

At first, I wasn’t sure where I stood. I saw so many people pouring energy into resisting aging, but I realized I didn’t want to fight it. Instead, I wanted to embrace it.

What helped me was finding inspiration in European women. In places like France and Italy, aging seems to be met with a wonderful blend of acceptance and intentionality. They show us that we can approach this stage with grace, confidence, and joy.

For me, embracing aging means being kind to myself while prioritizing the things that help me age well :

regular exercise
consistent strength training
stretching and balance practice
eating well
minimal drinking
good sleeping habits

I also believe that accepting aging is one of the healthiest and most freeing attitudes we can take.

Acceptance doesn’t mean ignoring the changes. It means navigating them with intention and compassion for ourselves.

💫 If you’re ready to embrace aging, my Midlife Pathfinder is designed to help you look at how you want to age AND how to make a plan to get to her.

ABOUT ME + WHY I STARTED AYIS Hello 👋 I’m Ha

ABOUT ME + WHY I STARTED AYIS

Hello 👋 I’m Hardie Cobbs, a style coach who helps midlife women embrace aging with confidence. I am passionate about helping women be their BEST selves at every stage of life through the language of style.

WHAT IS A STYLE COACH?
You know that “meh” feeling when you look in the mirror? Or when life feels a little “blah”? As a certified Style Coach, I help align your outer confidence (how you dress) with your inner confidence (how you live your life). I honestly believe true style comes from the combination of having both inner and outer confidence, which happens when you have a true appreciation of who you are + what you want out of life.

WHY I STARTED AYIS
Six years ago, while undergoing breast cancer treatment, I had an epiphany. I loved my life, but I realized there was more I was meant to do. During treatment, I struggled to find support for aging gracefully, especially as I navigated surgical menopause. That experience inspired me to create what I needed - a space to empower women to approach midlife with confidence, authenticity, and style.

MY MISSION
To change the narrative around aging. To help women see midlife as a time of reinvention, self-expression, and growth.

HOW I CAN HELP YOU
✨ 1:1 STYLE COACHING : A transformational style journey.

✨ INNER CIRCLE COMMUNITY : Daily support, inspiration, and connection with a fabulous group
of like-minded women.

✨ PARIS EXCURSIONS : 1:1 Cultural and shopping adventures curated just for you.

WHERE I CALL HOME
I’m from Atlanta but have lived all over the US - Washington, DC, Birmingham, San Francisco, + Seattle.

WHAT MAKES ME HAPPIEST
My family, my dogs, traveling, shoes, hiking, entertaining, decorating, and a really good laugh.

WHAT I AM CURRENTLY OBSESSED WITH
The Sheldrick Trust @sheldricktrust and its work to care for orphaned elephants.

WHAT CURRENTLY CHALLENGES ME
Learning the French language and watercolor. #$*#!!! 😂

Thank you for following along 💛

I’d love to know about how I can be of support!
