MEAGHAN SMITH PERSONAL STYLIST

I was forever messaging clients saying, “Somebody just bought this dress, I think you should check it out”, or “I saw these shoes on sale and I thought of you”. There was always something that I wanted to share. A piece a client bought while I was shopping with them, a vintage gem I came across on eBay that was too good to get away, or my favourite little navy dress of the season.

I’d also notice that occasionally my clients made (costly) mistakes when I wasn’t around to see what they were buying. (i.e., help them with the sizing, fabric, etc.)  

I thought if I collectively (privately on Instagram) suggested to them what they could add to their wardrobe in between our shopping trips, then they’d make fewer expensive errors.

And that’s how Fabulous Finds & Favourite Things came about.

The aim is…

To make shopping easier. To take the time, overwhelm, frustration, and confusion out of it.

To help you build a functional and versatile wardrobe that you love.

To introduce you to new things (brands, shops, clothes, styling hacks, etc.) that you otherwise may not have known about.

To encourage you to think about curating a great wardrobe, rather than just about buying stuff.

It’s like I’m doing the personal shopping for you – as well as giving you styling ideas and expert advice – without my hourly rate. -:)

The Fab Finds & Fave Things subscription is ideal for anyone who…

• Wants to look and feel good but doesn’t have the time (energy or inclination) to physically go shopping.
• Would like to stay up to date with what’s in fashion.
• Might not be able to afford to work one-on-one with me, but would still love to learn about style, fashion, and shopping, and have the chance to ask me questions.
• Doesn’t want to make any more costly fashion mistakes
• Would just like to be shown what to buy.

This is what one of my subscribers Kate emailed me to say about Fab Finds…

The subscription cost is…

$99 for 6 months

$169 for 12 months

That’s $3.35 per week. Less than a latte 😉

If you would like to subscribe, have any questions, or would like further details about it, you can email me at meaghanbs@hotmail.com

*In the photo I’m wearing a Fab Find from Sportscraft. Originally $399, when I shared it, it was on sale for $87.

This is Lauren Hutton 1993-ish.

If I was to describe her style here, I might use some of these words…

classic
relaxed
effortless
simple
sporty
oversized
tailored
casual
soft
unexpected
elegant

To break it down, she’s wearing a blazer, a trench coat, track pants, and sneakers. (Probably also a woven rattan back pack she always carries. Still.) It’s an unexpected combo of tailored pieces and sporty casual pieces.

One or two of the words I chose could have been influenced by the era -particularly oversized – but I think most of them represent Lauren’s style pretty well – then and now.

I thought this might help some of you who are figuring out your style. Do any of those words resonate with you and your style?

Scroll down and check out the photo below. If you didn’t know it was Lauren Hutton from the 90’s, could you imagine it being a photo/outfit from today?

I liked this look on Pamela Anderson at the Dior show, day 1 of Couture Paris fashion week. While the suit is quite masculine – a little reminiscent I thought, of something Katherine Hepburn might have worn in the 1940’s – she oozed femininity and elegance.

This is what I noticed about Pam’s look..

The overall shape of the outfit. Wide (padded) shoulders, cinched (belted) waist, wide legged pants.

The outfit’s one color (tonal dressing).

There’s texture by way of the wool in the suit, the fringe on the jacket & the net on the headpiece.

Some shine is coming from the headband, belt. Bag & shoes.

Pointy shoes with wide legged pants.

The headpiece also has a 1940’s (ish) feel.

The pants have fluidity & move beautifully as she walks. They’re long to the ground.

The jacket is around hip length.

She’s carrying a small structured, ladylike bag that isn’t at all distracting from what she’s wearing.
