When I get on a discovery call with a potential client who really wants to work with me and discover their personal style but who is also dealing with a body transition and wants to lose weight (but it might be taking longer than planned) they ask me if it’s worth it to buy new clothes now.

If you’re reading this you might be able to relate. Why? There are many… View Post

The first half of this post was published a couple of years ago. Now that the majority of you are working from home (if you’re lucky enough to still be working) in the time of COVID-19 I thought I’d delete my old post and rewrite it to include what to wear when you’re on a video conferencing call. Because, at… View Post

I don’t know about you, but I am SO ready to put away my parka, toque and snowboots for the season. If I never hear the words “polar vortex” again, I’d be totally fine with that.
