In today’s video, I’m joined by the incredibly talented wardrobe stylist, Amber, from Wear the Hat Styling. I challenged her to dive into my wardrobe and curate 7 effortless, chic summer outfits for my upcoming trip to Normandy, France—using only pieces I already own!
Instead of going out and buying new clothes, Amber showed me how to rethink, repurpose, and combine unexpected colors, patterns, and high-low aesthetics to completely refresh my signature style while prioritizing comfort.
If you want to save money, shop more sustainably, and get some amazing travel packing tips, this closet refresh transformation is for you!

💡 Summary of Key Styling Tips Shared in This Video:
The Pattern Mixing Rule: If you are afraid to mix patterns, make sure the pieces share at least one common color to ground the look.
The Sandwich Effect: Match an element on the top of your body (like jewelry or a hat) with something on the bottom (like sneakers or shoes) to make an outfit instantly look curated.
Masculine/Feminine Tension: Try pinning a delicate vintage brooch onto a structured men's thrifted blazer or safari shirt for an effortlessly cool aesthetic.
Ditch the "Rules" on Black & Brown: Don't be afraid to mix leather tones! Merging a brown belt and bag with black sandals helps bridge the divide so you can pack lighter.
