Style used to be so simple once upon a time. But turning fifty made me rethink what to wear. I studied personal styling at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York to understand the rules of great style. Then in my sixties I downsized my life and decided to do the same for my closet. Now I plan a capsule wardrobe ahead of each season so I never need to experience 'nothing to wear' anxiety when I start my day. Now in my seventies I have more confidence in how I look than I've ever had. I'd love you to feel that confidence too.
