How I went from all black activewear to colour queen

Once upon a time (aka not that long ago), I was drowning in a sea of clothes — and not the good kind. I’m talking overflowing wardrobe, tags still on, pieces I thought I liked until I actually wore them.

Spoiler alert: I didn’t.

​

It was like walking into a black hole of activewear... because most of it was, well, black activewear. Boring. Bland. Mismatched. And definitely not making me feel fab.

​

Then one fateful day, as I was doing some very important research

(read: scrolling TikTok), I stumbled across a Personal Stylist offering wardrobe audits. Cue the lightbulb moment 💡. I thought, “That’s what I need!” Next minute — I was purging 20% of my wardrobe... which, honestly, was probably someone else's entire collection. Oops.

​

That’s when everything changed.

​

I dove headfirst into the world of Personal Styling — learning how clothes should sit, drape, flatter, and make you feel like a million bucks (without spending it). Belts? Tucks? Hemlines? Suddenly, I cared.

​

Then came Colour Analysis — and WOW. Talk about a game-changer. Turns out, certain colours make me glow, and others make me look like I’ve pulled an all-nighter (without the fun). I had questions: “Why does this suit her but not me?” Turns out, it’s the combo of shape, style and colour. Mind. Blown.

​

Now, I’m a Qualified Colour Analysis Consultant through AOPI and I run My Colour & Style from my sunny home studio in Doreen, Melbourne — or virtually, so you can colour-match from your couch in PJs. No judgment.

​

With my colour swatch (yep, over 50 of my best shades!) and body shape know-how, I finally feel confident getting dressed — and I help other women do the same.

​

If you're sick of “meh” outfits and mystery clothes hanging in your wardrobe... I got you.

Let’s bring the colour (and the confidence) back. 🎨✨
