In this post Melissa shares her vast experience dressing the everyday woman proving the transformative power of a capsule wardrobe designed for your real life, not your fantasy life in 4 easy steps.
1. PERSONALISE : CREATING A WARDROBE THAT'S UNIQUELY YOU
At Melissa Murrell Personal Styling, we believe your wardrobe should be a reflection of you. Drawing on our world-famous Body Shape Masterclasses on our YouTube channel, we encourage you to turn to the pieces that not only flatter your unique body shape but also your lifestyle.
2. MIX AND MATCH: THE KEY MASTERING COLOUR COORDINATION
Our styling philosophy revolves around simplicity and sophistication. By coordinating 3 or 4 core colours, you'll create a versatile and harmonious wardrobe. This method isn't just about making getting dressed in the mornings easier; it's about creating an aesthetic that's effortlessly stylish and timeless.

3. THE 80/20 RULE: PRIORITISE FOUNDATION PIECES
We'll let you into a secret, the 80/20 rule is your key to a dreamy wardrobe that mixes and matches perfectly so that you always have something to wear. Here's what you need to know: 80-90% of your wardrobe will be made up of foundational pieces and only 10-20% will be trend-led, frivolous items. To see and example of this method in action watch this YouTube video or why not book a session with one of our stylists? Our personal styling services are tailored to help you identify high-quality basics that will form the backbone of your wardrobe, ensuring you have something to wear for every occasion.
4. VERSATILITY IS KEY: EXTEND THE MIX AND MATCH THEORY
A capsule wardrobe's superpower lies in its versatility and you must extend Melissa's mix and match philosophy to shoes, accessories, and outerwear to discover the joy of a wardrobe where everything works together.
