I’m SO excited today!!! I hit PUBLISH on my new personal styling website, Styled: by Chasing Cait this morning so now I just need everyone to go have a look, so off you pop and then come back and tell me what you think ok?……

Here it is!! The home page of my new styling website

…..You back? Did you like it? I’m so proud of it! Personal styling is such a BIG part of my life. So many blog ideas come from things clients ask me, or say to me, and I know they are the same questions that you, my gorgeous readers, are thinking yourselves.

Sometimes I find it hard to tell people that I am a personal stylist

 I’m scared they are going to judge me, or think that what I do is flippant, or vain, or not helping the world in any great capacity. People sometimes just think I play with clothes all day (which I do, but it’s much more than that!)

Personal styling, to me, is about giving people back the confidence to take on life that they may have lost. Many clients have been through some sort of change in their lives – divorce, weight gain, weight loss, job change, kids, menopause, the list goes on.

They have lost sight of who they are, and want to get it back. Using clothes is just one of the ways that people (mostly women) can express themselves, and really empower themselves to take on the world again!

I love this quote from Bill Cunningham, a style photographer on the streets of New York

I’m on a mission……..

I want to change the world one outfit at a time!

I want people to see that how you look is a MASSIVE reflection of who you are (but in a GOOD way – it’s so powerful). It’s the image you put out into the world for people to see (because the reality is, first impressions count – and the first impression most of the time is how we look). Don’t you want people to know that you are awesome before you even start talking because you’ve presented yourself in a way that says “I‘m awesome?”

So if this is ringing any bells for you, or you know something this reminds you of, or you just need a little love and inspiration, let me know!! If you are in Auckland, great! Book in a session with me, but if you aren’t? That’s ok too! Email me, jump on Facebook and ask me a question, set up a SKYPE style session.

Fashion and style should be fun, and easy. But’s it is also incredibly powerful – harness the power that being true to your own sense of style can give you!! Now go out there and be fabulous already ok?!!?

(Oh and don’t forget to go visit the new website if you didn’t at the start of the post….. go on!)
