Have you ever been in a style rut? (I think we all have!) But here’s the thing – you might be in a style rut and not even know it. If you’re feeling totally blah about your wardrobe – you may be in a rut. If you keep grabbing the same things over and over – you may be in a rut.

Read More6 everyday casual outfits (that aren't leggings!)

The reason I brought this up is because I work with many clients who feel stuck.

They can’t think of easy outfits that are casual enough for working from home or running errands. So, check out a bunch of everyday outfits I created for my virtual clients (without a legging in sight), with formulas that you can copy with what’s in your closet.

Read MoreThe outfit strategy you never thought about

Read MoreIt's not about the item, it's about the outfit
Occasionally when I’m with a client, I show them something that I think is incredibly useful – and they say, “I don’t know how I’d wear that.” But here’s the deal.

So, here are two examples where it’s not about the item, it’s about the outfit. Because if you’re stuck in wearing ‘cute top & jeans’ outfits, this may be exactly what you need.
