“For me, a good outfit is one that you don’t have to think about too much,” he says. Laura Talleya personal wardrobe stylist, lives in Boise, ID with her husband and three children. Her philosophy for herself and her clients is that your wardrobe should serve your current life. “Style is about being in tune with the season and taking care of yourself. It’s not about chasing a hope that you’ll be that person or that person someday,” she says. Here are 5 outfits Laura wore all week…
jacket: H&M. T-shirt: Reset. jeans: citizen of humanity. belt: old navy. sneakers: reebok. Baseball cap: Claire V. earrings: Gorjana.
“I’ve tried a million white T-shirts, Reset It’s definitely my favorite. It’s a little cropped, but I’m 5’9 so I can wear this t-shirt and still raise the roof without worrying about my bra showing. What I like is that it’s always in good condition and looks white even after washing. ”
“Some people love accessorizing, and I do too, but dressing yourself up is like cooking, and sometimes a truly delicious meal can be made with just five ingredients. this barn jacket It’s like a really good chunk of Parm that you keep in the fridge and use over and over again until it’s a small chunk. ”
blazer: eaves. jeans: citizen of humanity. shoes: resemble.
“I wear this outfit to work meetings. Jeans are super comfortable, and that’s important to me. I have a 3-year-old daughter, a 6-year-old son, and a 20-year-old stepdaughter. I work in and out of the house, and one day I beat it and the next I think, ‘This could have been better.'” So I want clothes that I don’t have to manage because I already manage so much other stuff. ”
“I’m also very practical when it comes to makeup. I stick to two lip colors. MAC lip pencil If you want more depth, add chicory, which is warm nutmeg. ilia crayon in Gala, a moisturizing dark rose. ”
Denim shirt: Madewell, resemble. Dress: Bardot, resemble.
“On date night, this dress I don’t wear a lot of printed clothes, so it felt a little out of the box at first. But now I wear it everywhere! It also has pockets, which I think is a good calculation when it comes to skirts and dresses. ”
“I grew up in Jamaica. My father was a shoemaker and my mother worked several jobs, including that of a seamstress. We had very little means, but my parents instilled in me the idea that you can be intentional about the clothes you put on your body, regardless of money. And that can be just as important as the words that come out of your mouth.”
Jacket: Anin Bing, resemble. shirt: ralph lauren. jeans: citizen of humanity. sneakers: reebok. earrings: Gorjana.
“I wear jeans 90 percent of the time, and I like to crease or crease the hem so I don’t feel like I’m wearing the same thing over and over again. The key is to have a good weight of denim. The higher the percentage of cotton, the easier it is to look sharp.”
“My ‘professional’ jeans go to the dry cleaners and they get a wet press or cowboy press, which is basically super starch. Then I take them home, cuff them up, and leave a book on them for a day. Then they can be worn for weeks and still look crisp and polished.”
Top: H&M, resemble. skirt: rail. wallet: saint laurent. sneakers: converse.
“Cute sneakers are my love language. They’re comfortable, of course, and they can soften an outfit in a good way, right? When you’re thinking, ‘This work outfit might be too stuffy,’ a cute pair of sneakers adds a touch of personality that makes other people’s guard down.”
“Before I had kids, I had this vision of myself having it all together, and I hear that from other moms all the time: ‘I just want to feel like I’m all together.'” I think that phrase sometimes translates into the ideal Pinterest board version of your life, but it doesn’t really help. You’ll always feel like, “Hmm, we’re not there yet.” My approach to style is “what’s going on?” here?What do you need? now? ”
Thank you very much, Laura!
