Nothing to Wear Panic When You Are Getting Ready to Go Out

March 31, 2014 by Nancy Goldblatt Leave a Comment

What happens when you get invited to a special event?

After you get all “dolled up,” do you look in the mirror and realize you look awful?

  • Does your outfit cling to your body revealing every bulge?

  • Do you look tired, old or washed out?

  • Maybe you don’t know what’s wrong.

But you feel, you look bad.

If you leave your home looking like this, everyone will think, 

              “That poor woman, is over the hill.”

Will they

        Feel sorry for you…

        Talk about you…

                  or

         Avoid you…

You say to yourself…

 “I must find something else to wear.”

  • You go to your closet and begin desperately searching.

  • Before you know it, you have pulled out more than half the clothes in your closet.

  • Clothes are piled everywhere and now you are running late.

  • Still you haven’t found the right outfit to wear.

Your heart starts beating faster and you are perspiring profusely as your panic builds.

  • If you have straight hair it’s hanging limp and wet.

  • If you have curly hair, it has frizzed up into a wild mass, from perspiration.

Your carefully made up face, is now red and blotchy and your makeup has melted away.

You are a wild woman, as you vainly pull more and more pieces of clothing out of your closet and drawers.

The friend waiting for you outside in the car has begun to impatiently honk the horn.

Or the phone is ringing and the hostess is asking,

   “What’s going on, why aren’t you here yet?”

You are in fight or flight mode and can’t talk.

You think to yourself,

   ”I  must find something to wear fast.”

Do you put on that original outfit again and force yourself to leave the house?

Will you hide in a corner, hoping others don’t notice that you are looking fat or frumpy?

Because this has happened before, you know you will be miserable, if you don’t find something to wear that makes you look and feel good.

Do you give up in disgust and call the hostess and say,

  “I’m too sick to attend.”

Now you really do feel sick, as your heart beats faster, panic is racing through your body and you can’t stop perspiring.

Maybe your problem isn’t a special event

Maybe it’s facing your closet everyday.

Do you dread trying to find something to wear to work?

Because

  • You have gained weight.

  • Your shape has changed.

  • Your “old faithfuls,” are threadbare.

  • Or you have a closet stuffed with separates but nothing matches.

Is there something you can do to avoid all of this?

You can call in sick, and hide out while you exercise like crazy, lose a few pounds and then spend lots of money on new clothes.

Even with exercise, weight loss, and new clothes, you will face the same problem, if you don’t learn what colors and styles really flatter you.

You can’t depend on the fashion industry for accurate information on how to choose flattering clothes and accessories.

They are not in the business of teaching you how to understand your unique style.

They want to sell you the latest clothes and accessories.

There is a solution

You can learn to be your own Personal Image Consultant.

Imagine…

  • Having a closet full of mix and match clothes that all look great on you.

Imagine… 

  • Going shopping and knowing what to buy and what to avoid.

This won’t take thousands of dollars or years to do.

You don’t even have to wait till you lose weight to start looking and feeling better.

And you don’t have to buy a whole new wardrobe of clothes.

You can learn to shop your closet and use what you already have. 

Are you ready to learn to be your own “Image Consultant,” and say goodbye to the panic of “Nothing to Wear”?

Three Fashion Fads That Waste Your Money

August 22, 2012 by Nancy Goldblatt 2 Comments

Are you trying to look current by buying the latest fashion fads?  

 Here are three of the  latest fads, I give a thumbs down to because their main purpose is to get you to spend money.

 These fads will soon be gone.

 Sometimes fads turn into trends that last a few seasons.  Trends can become classics that last forever.  An example of this is denim jeans.  I predict the following fads will never become trends or classics.

  1. Shoes that are a different color than your outfit.  The fashionistas call this “wearing a pop of color.” Do you really want people focusing on your feet instead of your face?
  2. Another large pop of color.  A second fad which is trying to become a trend.  How many of you have purchased a very large purse that is a different color than your outfit (usually in a green or orange color.)
  3. The third fad is the color orange which is everywhere this season.  Orange can work for everyone, but you must know which shades and brightnesses of orange flatter you otherwise you risk looking like a pumpkin if the orange is too bright.
Here is Judith, one of my image clients in a beautiful “toned down orange,” top.  If Judith wore the bright orange being shown this season, it would overpower her gentle coloring.

I would look tired and sick if I tried wearing the toned down orange that Judith looks so fabulous in.

   The Halloween orange being shown this season doesn’t flatter many people.  But when you understand the orange shades that flatter you, its easy to look current as well as visually balanced.

 Look Current Without Wasting Money

 I am not discouraging you from trying new fads or trends.  Just be selective about what you buy.  
I urge you to get educated about what really is flattering for your unique coloring and shape so you don’t end up wasting your  money.
Follow Your Inner Compass
Once you understand some simple rules about looking visually balanced, and you know what colors and silhouettes are flattering, you can begin to follow your inner compass in choosing what looks and feels right on you.

You Can Look Spectacular at Any Age

March 9, 2012 by Nancy Goldblatt Leave a Comment

Nancy Goldblatt, “Wardrobe Wizard”
Are you worried you look “Over the hill”?  At networking events, do you feel you are invisible to people because you are over a certain age?  

If you are an employee, are you concerned you might get downsized because you don’t look as young and energetic as your co-workers?

Have you noticed you look more tired and the lines in your face look more prominent?

If you are in a relationship, when was the last time your partner said,”Wow, you look great.”

Even if you aren’t interested in a new relationship, when was the last time a stranger looked at you twice?

 When you look in the mirror, how do you feel?

Erma Bombeck, the late humorist said, ” It’s better to be over the hill, than under it.” This isn’t very reassuring when you aren’t “Under the hill,” yet.

Nancy Goldblatt, “The Wardrobe Wizard,” says, ” You don’t have to feel or look over the hill.”

 “No matter what your age, shape or size, you can recapture your natural good looks.”  This does not involve anything drastic, but it does require getting accurate information about what really looks good on you.

You Can Look Spectacular At Any Age
You Can Look Spectacular at Any Age

You won’t find this accurate, personalized information in  magazines or on television.

 Lots of books are available with good and bad advice.  After you decipher which is the good advice, you have to determine what applies to you.  This can take many years.

The Secret to Looking Current 

The secret  to looking like you know “What’s Happening,”  is not wearing the latest trendy colors or style.  The secret is to look:

  • coordinated
  • pulled together
  • visually harmonious.

You don’t need a face lift, or botox injections to do this.

This involves understanding your face and body shape, finding out what your best colors are and learning how to use this information so you can look visually pleasing.

 Yes, You Can Look  Spectacular at Every Age.

A good place to start is with flattering colors.  I believe the Color1 system, of color analysis is the most accurate system available.

I have been a Color 1, Personal Image Consultant for over 20 years.  I have seen hundreds of my clients transformed after I did their colors and they used their charts to choose makeup and clothing.

A Color 1 chart can be used for your entire life.

 It’s not true that as you get older you should wear more toned down or more pastel clothing.  

Want more information about Color 1?

Joanna Nicholson and Judy Lewis Crum founded Color 1 about 35 years ago.  Joanna Nicholson has written a number of books.

Her most recent books are “Dressing Smart for Women,” and “Dressing Smart for Men.”  Find the books at the library or try Amazon or contact Leslie Stott, current CEO of Color 1 at: Leslie@thecolorlady.com
