Real (approachable) Style Advice for Real (grown-up) Women with 
Real (smart) Budgets
 
SUNDAY MARCH 10, 2024
 
Hello Friends!
 
I promised last week not to ‘bitch and moan’ about the weather and told you that was a favorite Mary-ism. So I'm not going to tell you that today is the first non-rainy day since last Sunday. 
 
And in honor of Mary and the 2-year anniversary of her going to where it's always sunny and she can see, hear and do whatever the heck she wants….here's a favorite pic of our girl❤️

Now, for what you may have missed at B.Styled this past week….
 
  1. Tipsy Tuesday: My life in a nutshell and how B.Styled came to be: 
 
And here's the 4 minute abridged version (you're welcome;)
 
 
2. VERY Important Update on Spring 2024 Trends
I'm going to save you hours of research and scrolling – and tons of money from ‘comment for link ' mistakes. 
 
Ok…so here are the hottest spring TRENDS:
 
Preppycore (I think I get this one?)  
 
Errandcore (🤔🤷‍♀️)?
 
And are you familiar with Eclectic Grandpa style? I kid you not…Google it. It's a thing. 👴🏼
 
And are you versed in the hot, “current" colors? 
Light blue…Hot Pink…Lavender…Kelly Green🍀…Yellow? 
 
Who knew these were new spring colors?? Shocking, really. 
 
Makes you think fashion and style just aren't made for us grown-ups.
 
But, we refuse to look dated or out of touch, right??
 
So…maybe, this insidious cycle rings a bell:
 
👉🏼See a cute outfit in your feed   👉🏼Comment Link or Shop 👉🏼 Think, “Wow, it’s cheap, why not?? 👉🏼 Hit BUY NOW  👉🏼 In a day or so, it arrives on your doorstep. 
 
BAM…instant gratification (or disappointment)  and instant dopamine rush (or guilt).  Either way, the rush is real and makes us do it over and over again. 
 
NO judgement here…just ask my delivery guy…I’ve been guilty of this cycle too. 
 
BUT, I'm also a Stylist (not an Influencer - though I do respect them/their work) and I recognize the dangers this type of shopping presents to our closets and our style (not to mention our budgets). 
 
Now, I have good news…so you can put down your phone and stop the scroll: 
 
You don’t have to keep up with the trends to stay current.🤯
 
And some more good news… 
 
A few key updates can change the feeling of your whole wardrobe.
 
And best of all, it's not as complicated - or as expensive - as you think. 
 
And you definitely don't have to dress like your grandpa-husband. 👴🏼 
 
Phew.
 
What you DO need is a  a plan.
 
You need to know which styles and silhouettes are updated, what's missing from your closet (if anything) and the basic essentials so you can put an outfit on each morning easily – and #justgetdressed. ✅
 
Then, you'll be creating so many great outfits easily that your daughter, your partner, even the UPS guy….will be complimenting your effortless style. 👌🏼
 
Because with the 10-15 key pieces (in current styles and silhouettes) that my Spring Style System lays out for you…. you'll be amazed at how easy spring dressing can be. 
 
Many/most of these pieces may already be in your closet, just waiting (begging?) to be worn. 
 
And with the daily outfit prompts showing you how to mix and match these pieces to create looks you love, getting dressed will be fun and easy – and dare I say, transformative. Yes, I said it. 
 
You could pay a personal stylist hundreds (or thousands) of dollars to help you, or you could get my Spring Style System for $47 and start enjoying the benefits immediately. 
 
Seems like a no-brainer. 👍🏼😃
 
You deserve to look and feel your best -- daily -- and I love to help women just like you and me do just that.  
 
Let's get dressed (in 5 minutes) and out the door this spring looking like the modern, hip and 😎 grownups we are:
