Good (though old) Styling Information

I’m cleaning through our 2 story + basement home in preparation for a down-size/relocation next spring.  Oh MY!  I’m finding SO much stuff – good (though old) information that reveal the ‘path’ of my work world over the past 30+ years.  Though some of this will look ‘dated’, I personally feel most of it is still ‘TRUE’ and well worth reading.  I’m fully aware that many ‘younger eyes’ will roll, but personally feel that if these principles were still valued by women, that we would ALL present a much better image that ‘doesn’t tell all’ if ya know what I mean.

Most of this information comes from my color/styling-image training back in the early 80’s when color analysis became all the rage.  These principles still have value – so here goes…please read the Caption under the image for my explanation/current commentary.  I welcome your comments!      


These principles ARE still true for tasteful, good, classic fashion!
