Today, we’re looking at some of the countless style typing systems on the internet, each one promising an easy way for us to get dressed and love the results. But do they actually help, or do they leave us feeling more confused than we were before?
I’ve got some issues with these highly specific, incredibly detailed typing systems, but if they’ve worked for you, I’m thrilled!
In this episode, I talk about my personal experiences with one of the more high-profile systems, The Kibbe Body Type System. This is an array of thirteen style types based largely on a person’s balance of yin and yang. After spending hours exploring this system, I was hopelessly lost and confused!
At the beginning of 2023, I created a bucket list full of style-related tasks that I wanted to accomplish during the year. Some were easy, some were not so easy, and some of them I even managed to tick off without meaning to!
However, all of them were designed to move my style forward. So, in this episode, I’m holding myself accountable, looking back to see how I did…and sharing the lessons I learned along the way.
That you need a whole new wardrobe.
That there are clothes or colors you "can't" wear.
That you need to become someone you're not, just to have good style.
I believe your wardrobe should make life easier, not be another thing on your to-do list. And I believe every little win-from finding the perfect jeans to getting compliments from strangers-is worth celebrating.
