Take home whatever you like – there is no limit! We have a rule that you must try things on to make sure they fit. It’s helpful to have several mirrors on hand. Bring along a drink or food to share – make it hygge! And everyone helps to pack up/drop off the donations afterwards.

Colour Capsule Wardrobe: Three Years with Dressing Your Truth!

Do you have a Capsule Wardrobe. Yes, no, don’t care what you wear? I’m three years into Dressing Your Truth and it has been life changing for me…not just the feeling of being “put together” with fewer clothes in my wardrobe and saving money by avoiding all those bad purchases. But I feel lighter and brighter on the inside! In today’s video you can see how I got on, hear my three style keywords, plus see my one new item for summer 2021 which will work for me all year round!

If you’d like to see more about my wardrobe and how I use Carol Tuttle’s Dressing Your Truth system, “come along” to our famous Clothes Swap Parties, see my YouTube series! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxIYCyTLBED-_AxzW73x4ZWtikVFAvDQW

Parenting Podcast – once again I’m a guest on The Child Whisperer!

Copenhagen calling! Who loves a good podcast? Me! I was delighted once again to be a guest on Carol Tuttle’s “Child Whisperer” podcast! I’ve been giving my tips on Life and Space Organization for each of the four types of children. In this episode (the fifth in a series of five) we offer support for the Type 4 child – who may be the tidiest – or the messiest! Do you have a type 4 child or perhaps you are a type 4 parent? Listen in – there are lots of tips on daily routines and organization for everyone!

Seaswimming and Outfits of the Day – 23 May 2021

Happy Sunday! A round up of my recent OOTDs = outfits of the day! (I use the Dressing Your Truth colour system, more info at the end of this post.) Plus some seaswim photos…

Yellow and white stripes and my favourite wardrobe basic – a white blazer
Pink dotty scarf tied as a bow (I wore this exact same outfit last year and it’s a 5/5 for me)
Baby blue with my daisy scarf

We’re slowly reopening here in Denmark after several Lockdowns and I finally met up with dear friends whom I haven’t seen in 7 months! And it was so lovely to be out eating in a restaurant again…

Finally able to meet up with friends I haven’t seen for 7 months!
An old favourite…my red hearts blouse
Out for a walk in the park with the family
My favourite pattern is…stripes!
Blue and white polka dots

In skinnydipping seaswimming news, sea temperature is now up at 9c/48f, air similar. We celebrated our winter/spring team challenges with champagne and homemade snacks, and are looking forward to our summer programme! Such a brilliant group of ladies!

If you’re looking for a capsule wardrobe system, I can thoroughly recommend the Dressing Your Truth system (there is a free course on the website). Your best colours and styles are determined by your facial features/inner energy (my primary energy type is 1 with a secondary energy of 4). It has been life-changing for me and makes getting dressed so easy! (I’ve made several YouTube videos about my wardrobe, see below.) I use the Flylady system to keep me organised and my daily routine includes choosing my outfit a day in advance (I check my diary/weather forecast to see what’s ahead). I hang my outfit on a hook on the back of our bedroom door and am ready to go the moment my feet hit the floor the next morning. I love having a morning routine that sets me up for a good day!

If you’d like to see more about my wardrobe, “come along” to our famous Clothes Swap Parties, and see why I love using the Dressing Your Truth system, see my YouTube series!

Have a great Sunday! Hugs!
