Is your wardrobe out of balance?
Do you find yourself wearing only 20% of your wardrobe while the other 80% just sits there, untouched?
Why are we holding back from wearing what we truly love?
Let me share a story.
When I was running my Feng Shui business, I had a pair of powerful red shoes.
I’ve written about them before as my power shoes because every time I wore them, I got compliments.
Whether I was in a store or at a networking event, the compliments never stopped.
And when you receive compliments on your outfit, you feel amazing, so of course, I kept wearing them.
Red is an auspicious color in Feng Shui. It was bold, on brand, and made me feel confident.
I wore those shoes until they had to be retired.
But I didn’t replace them right away.
One day, I realized how much fun I had wearing them and wondered why I wasn’t wearing red more often.
So I bought another pair, and again, same energy, same compliments.
Then I asked myself, why wasn’t I buying more red shoes for different seasons?
Maybe I wasn’t finding the right styles, but I looked deeper and questioned why I didn’t have more red in my wardrobe at all.
That moment made me realize I needed to be more intentional with my color choices.
Red works beautifully with so much, yet I hadn’t fully embraced it.
That realization led me to reassess everything. I see this with my clients all the time.
We limit ourselves to just one of something we love instead of making it a core part of our style.
Another example: I love denim jackets.
The market is full of different cuts and styles that fit my aesthetic perfectly, so why not invest in more denim jackets?
