                                          Launching ... STYLINGinsideOUT
                             How to Start your own body image and styling business

The only system available in the market that teaches you how to transform clients from the inside and out.

We have been very busy in the styleLAB cooking our latest styling product and we present to you ... STYLINGinside OUT, The Complete Business KIT to starting your own body image and styling business from anywhere in the world.

This course primary has been put together for any woman or man (not limited to NZ) who wants to learn how to transform the lives of their clients.

"I have carefully crafted for you over 15 years of clothing styling, psychology, self-image, coaching, marketing and business to offer our new transformation agents an A to Z to teach you step-by-step how to build a successful styling and image business (or for some just some extra income)"

This programme is not to be compared to other stylists’ trainings. 
We offer the only mind-to-toe transformational system .  STYLINGinsideOUT cuts through all the fluff and old fashion teachings of the styling industry"

Most courses focus only on the exterior while we know and understand how our clients dress themselves from mind-to-toe.  No change can take place until we get into our client’s body and image perceptions.   To create powerful lasting change we must learn how to style ourselves from the insideOUT.

Frankly, we have not seen anyone else who has crafted a powerful teaching of this kind! And now you can learn all of this for yourself and/or to transform the lives of your clients.  Boy, I only wished something of this kind was available when I started La’Qua Image in 2005. 

If you are an existing stylist reading this you will know the amount of hours you have put into your business to set up your business model, structure, marketing, website, follow-up, materials, to say the least.  Imagine if it all has been created for you and all you need to do is plug in your personality and flair to this business.

Well, that is exactly what we have created.  We will be launching this programme soon.  So if you are interested on finding out more click here to register your interest.

  Tired of having to de-tangle your necklaces or never finding the one you want?

Here is a quick cost-effective tip on how to hang accessories in style.

If you have been following us for some time you will know that one of our Pillars to a Successful Wardrobe is Accessories (The first is Colour, second is Style and third is Learning how to shop like a Pro).  And that 30% of our wardrobe budget should be invested in accessories and they must be easy to access.  If we have to dig for them in a box or drawer we are not going to be able to jazz up our outfits in a flash.

Read previous article on how to accessorise.

Here is what you need:

  1. An Art Canvas.  You can pick these up from your local emporium, stationery or warehouse store. Anywhere from $7+
  2. Hooks.  I like to use these white hooks to keep it all matching.  Bought these from The Warehouse for $0.75 cents and wall hooks.
  3. Hammer
  4. Gorgeous inspiring accessories. 

 
 
                       How to wear this season’s bright and loud colours.

Neons, baby tones, pastels, primary colours, dusty neutrals and more have all gathered together and decided to make a bold statement this Spring and Summer 2013.

With so much vibrancy and choice there is no wonder black clothing has been given the backrow in this season’s showcase.  Let’s cover some simple and powerful tips to inject colours with loud confidence. 


Tip 1:  Get wise and Neonise.

The quickest way to give your wardrobe a style fresh-up is to invest in this season’s gorgeous accessories.  
My tip is always to pick your favourite two colours that speak to you and buy a family of accessories.

e.g.  I am going to introduce this season’s yellow neon.  I love It. Goes amazing with my skin tone (olive - cool unde and my Winter Colouring Palette.  

So this season I have bought the necklace, the slim belt, and I have the options to feature this colour with passion and subtlety with some neutrals.

So go wild and play this season.  Getting dressed every morning should be a fun empowering experience.  See clothing as another expression of your greatness!

Time to brighten up your wardrobe and create endless combinations!
                   Worried that your winter clothes will not get enough wear?

"Our shopping skills are usually passed on by our mothers, sisters or close girlfriends and sometimes they are not always the right advice when it comes to dressing YOU" 

Learn how to shop for all seasons in one season.  There are key fundamentals that women are never taught when it comes to shopping.


We have a unique, practical and cost-effective system that will amaze you!
For example we ensure that every garment that we buy together will be:
  • WOW, because it gives YOUR body all the right illusions
  • You will be able to dress it up in several ways
  • Make it casual or formal as there is no need to have separate wardrobes
  • We will teach you how to unlayer your winter outfits for fabulous summer and spring combinations.


Need assistance? Let us know your budget, whether it is e.g. $200. $500, $1500+, and we will show you how to have a practical, stylish and multi-purpose wardrobe.

Select your best online or face-to-face shopping solution.

We are very firm when it comes to investing our clients money in a fun, sassy, workable wardrobe 

 
 
                                 Everyday you are given the chance to appreciate YOU

How amazing it is to wake up and be inspired by your wardrobe combinations, knowing that each garment you pick delicately drapes your body and helps you adorn the beautiful woman that you truly are.  Clothing is your most intimate environment, and your home is second.  We spend a lot of time and money decorating our homes so it reflects our personality and translates who we are. However, we only invite into our home the people that we like while the whole world gets to see you everyday. 

So take each piece of garment as an intricate piece that represents you.  Wear colours that enhance you, nourish your body, and make you glow.  Choose fabrics and styles that embrace your shape against wearing baggy style to hide it. As a client so adequately said “women are wearing clothes that block our femininity”. 

If you take a little look around the majority of women look like walking rectangles, using clothing to hide the parts they do not like instead of dressing to enhance.  How much appreciation do you give yourself through clothing?

So why not bring new awareness and energy to your life and make a commitment that from now on you will only drape your body with clothing that makes you feel yummy. 

Every morning you are gifted with an opportunity to celebrate YOU!
