Your Body. Your Shape. Your Style.
I live in Australia, in the sub-tropics, which is very lovely, but, the thing is, the weather has this thing in the early spring. Don’t get me wrong, it’s my favourite time of year. The cold weather just breaks and suddenly the days are long and toasty warm, the mornings are cool, the sun shines, [...]
Ever since I came out with my wardrobe confession and started rectifying the situation I have to say I’ve felt so uncomfortable. One of the things that I’ve done is cut my hair. I always sort of picture myself, you know when I’m done transforming and am finally the svelte, well dressed, fabulously wealthy person [...]
I’ve just read this book What to Wear, Where: The How-to Handbook for Any Style Situation and got to say at the end of the day it wasn’t terribly useful. Which is not to suggest that the outfits weren’t fantastic, because they were, or that it wasn’t thorough, because it most definitely was, with all [...]
I have fat thighs. In fact my whole leg is pretty chunky, although I do have fairly defined ankles. When I was younger it used to upset me tremendously but nowadays I think, ngh, so what. That’s who I am and it’s far more beneficial to accept myself as I than it is to stress [...]
I’ve defined my style and gone through and got rid of anything that doesn’t seem like my style any more. All good things. But I kind of thought by now I’d be buying up a storm, but, not so much. In fact I’ve not bought anything at all. It’s kind of frustrating. I realise it’s [...]
I’ve identified my personal style, or at least what I’m aiming for, so the next step in the process is to go through what I currently have and eliminate anything that doesn’t fit that style. I have a secret: I’ve been trying to make this change for years; ever since I started this blog which [...]
It’s always hard to find pictures of women who are a similar size to me and that makes it so much harder to find outfit ideas that really speak to me. Particularly in the celebrity world, which lets face it, is where the majority of photos we see are from. Queen Latifah is just gorgeous, [...]
My wardrobe sucks, sadly, along with my image, so I’m making some changes. I’d decided what I want to achieve so now it’s time to get on with it. To bring you up to speed I want to build a solid wardrobe of clothes that I love to wear, that I feel confident wearing and [...]
So now that I’ve made my big confession what do I plan to do about it? Change my wardrobe and my look. Anyone who’s read my personal blog www.lisarutland.com will know that I’m all about visualising. I believe the more crystal clear I can be about what I’m trying to achieve the more likely I’ll [...]
I have a confession to make. It’s difficult to say. Really, really difficult, especially given where I’m writing it. I don’t actually want to say it but I’m going to because I have decided now is the time for me to address this issue. I, Lisa Rutland, have a crap wardrobe. Yes, that is correct. [...]
