Essence Courses
You've figured out your essence - now what?
The foundation of each essence is your style process: how you evaluate what works and what doesn't, how you make new outfits and change existing ones. Each essence quadrant is like a lens that helps you see your style needs clearly, and helps focus your attention so you build an effective and joyful wardrobe.
Each course includes three, hands-on activities with the most foundational principles of the quadrant. I'll guide you through an exercise to evaluate your wardrobe as a whole, an exercise to evaluate individual outfits, and an exercise to change outfits.
The cost for each course is 25 USD
