LOOKING GOOD Live!
Look like a million...
for considerably less!

What you need to know about style, line, design, and color to flatter you.

Nancy Nix Rice  shows you how to dress the body you have and make it the best it can be. Learn to create “points of connection” between you and your wardrobe—colors, styles, design details and accessories—to spotlight your assets and minimize your challenge areas. See Cindy’s wardrobe transformation and discover techniques to update your own closet. Whether you buy clothes, sew your own, or both, you’ll never again have to utter those famous words: “I have nothing to wear.”

 

 

Here’s just part of what you’ll learn:

·        How “points of connection” make any woman look and feel beautiful
·        How to identify your personal key neutral color (clue: it’s probably NOT black)
      and your most flattering shade of "white"
·        Your coloring classification: warm or cool … or something in between.
·        The four body types and key styles to flatter yours.
·        Solutions to eight most common figure challenges
·        The (almost) universal secret to looking instantly taller & trimmer.
·        Eight ways to appear 10 pounds thinner instantly ... without losing an ounce.
·        How the right undergarments strip away years and pounds
·        Your facial shape and how to balance it to an “ideal oval”
·        How your facial structure dictates design details and accessory shapes.
·        Accessories – the exact shoes, belts and hanbags to finish your look
·        Using accessory “links” to multiply your mix-match wardrobe options.
·        Purging your closet – what goes, what stays. And WHY.
·        Two surprising updates to give questionable garments new life.
·        Ten organizing tricks to make (and keep) your closet user-friendly.
·        The four key pieces that triple the versatility of your wardrobe.
·        Six secrets to pain-free shopping ... and much more.
