Embracing a new chapter…

I’ve spent just over a year now being focused on my health, coping with pandemic life and the devastating impact it’s had, being realistic about what I have capacity for and what I don’t, growing a tiny human in me, which is the biggest blessing in my life. It’s been a journey like no other and for those of you who reached out to me with love, I thank you so much for your continued support and encouragement.

I felt strongly in this time that I couldn’t focus on much else except my pregnancy so I had to put my business on hold and do what felt right for me. 
There were days where I’d questioned myself and beat myself up over my decision, circling back to and reassessing what ‘failure’ and ‘success’ look like to me. I felt like I’d let myself and my clients down but I soon realised that I’m living by my own rules and, even though I’ve hit the pause button on the business side of things for now, I’ve gone full speed ahead in my personal life which has brought me the most incredible joy. The last trimester has been the most challenging but what’s resonated with me is how excited I am to be a mum and meet our baby boy in the next few days!

The reality is I’m just not one of those people who can juggle everything in life AND do great social media content 😂 and that's ok! When I do decide to hit ‘play’ again , it will be from a new perspective and I can’t say when that will be or what that might look like, but I do have an inner knowing that it will unfold in the best way at the best time. 

Part of my story has always been my struggle with body confidence in my younger years and it’s one of the reasons I decided to embark on my journey in styling, helping my clients shape and embrace their identity through style.

I couldn’t pass the opportunity to capture this life changing path in my journey. These were shot at my maternity shoot and, with minimal styling, the lovely captured the moment beautifully. No airbrushing! At 33 weeks into my pregnancy, it’s just me feeling the most beautiful and confident in my body than ever before!

Looking forward to connecting with you all again when the time is right xx

You may have noticed I haven't been posting much on the gram over the last few weeks and that's because a few medical issues are getting me down, demotivated, exhausted from pain, feeling unlike myself and, lets face it, not focused or very stylish. IG has been the constant reminder of everything I haven’t been doing. Almost 4 months since relocating and I miss the comforts of friends, family, networks, wonderful clients and even my income. Feeling ill was the perfect reason to start questioning a few things, including my worth.

But I came across an article by incredible alumni and a post by amazing mentor which inspired me and got me thinking about the the relationship I have with myself. It’s something I’m constantly working on albeit sometimes seemingly at a slow pace and I realise it’s about being mindful, making continuous efforts and, for me, being grateful for the things I’ve accomplished thus far because they remind me of what I’m capable of.

Yes it’s a special day but the sentiment should be constant, so the message I want to share is that before we can give fully to our relationships and our lives, we need to practice more self-love. Not the kind that speaks to the ego but the kind that speaks to our inner voice - the voice we’re in constant conversation with.

It's too easy for us to self criticise - from our personality, behaviour, efforts and achievements to our aesthetic and body shape. The negative narrative undermines our self esteem and, just like that, it has nothing to do with how we actually appear but everything to do with how we see ourselves.

When working with clients, I highlight the importance of seeing and seeking our positive attributes. When we shift the focus to those great qualities which make us who we are, therein lies the power of transformation and with that comes confidence and so much more.

So in celebration of love & you, I'm challenging you to change your conversation. Think of something you love about yourself and comment here! I’ll start - I love my smile and my legs - It’s not vain, it’s love and you’re worth it.

When was the last time you did a closet cleanse or truly considered whether the space in which you house your clothes and belongings truly serves who you are and the lifestyle you lead right now? How much of what you keep do you really use?

Often we hold onto items that we don't often use or wear or keep pieces that don't fit us at all because of the stories and memories associated with them - stories and memories associated with our past and who we were. What's important to remember is we should treasure the person we have become because of those memories and hold onto that rather than hold onto those pieces that no longer align with who we are in the present moment.

Reorganising your space is an empowering exercise when it comes to your personal style as it allows you to change your perspective, create a sense of practically and sustainability and let go of what no longer serves you.

A Wardrobe Rejuvenation Package with Maya & Peacock will help you create an environment that serves who you are and the lifestyle you lead right now. Visit the link in our bio for more info or send us a DM to learn more!

Thinking back to this lovely shoot I worked on recently and how I enjoyed the beauty and tranquility of the silence, sunset and all the country feels.

In addition to helping people express themselves and feel more empowered through their own personal style, I’m also qualified in bringing creative concepts to life through styling photoshoots and it’s always such fun working in this space as I build my portfolio.

I’m curious, what do you think my styling expresses here?

The Pantone Colour Institute announced 2021's colour of the year to be a marriage of different elements coming together, conveying messages of strength, warmth, dependability and hopefulness. Two colours were selected - Bright 'Illuminating' representing cheerfulness and optimism, perfectly balanced by emboldened 'Ultimate grey' emphasizing the importance of a firm foundation and the need to feel grounded, particularly relevant after the year we've all experienced.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
In addition, Pantone announced the SS20/21 Colour Palette (NYFW) highlighting tones which inspire feelings of comfort and relaxation and sparks of energy and encouragement:⁠⠀
⁠⠀
- Marigold⁠⠀
- Cerulean⁠⠀
- Rust⁠⠀
- Illuminating⁠⠀
- French blue⁠⠀
- Green ash⁠⠀
- Burnt Coral⁠⠀
- Mint⁠⠀
- Amethyst orchid⁠⠀
- Rasberry Sorbet⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Feeling encouraged and uplifted is essential to the human spirit. While you may or may not find these two standout colours appealing, or featuring heavily in your closet, what's key is to understand that when it comes to loving your personal style, you should wear the colours that inspire the feelings that make you look and feel your best, colours that suit your skin tone, and those that integrate into your existing wardrobe to give you even more outfit choices that represent who you are. ⁠⠀

Come to the start of a new year, we admirably tend to set the bar high with resolutions that we never quite get to fully achieving! Why not be kind to yourself this year and set some realistic but fun style goals? This way You could set aside some time to learn more about how to shop your closet, experiment with styles and fall in love with your existing wardrobe all over again, or you could simply want to know what your true style is so your inner self shines when you get dressed, or how you can break the cycle of buying pieces on impulse that doesn't make you feel your best.

If we've learnt anything from 2020 its that we should be shopping more sensibly, making the most of our wardrobe and truly considering our environmental and social footprint when making new purchases, and there is no time like the present to implement these shifts in mindset.

We saw some of the Spring colour trends bring fresh and feminine feels in 2020. Lilac or Lavender is one of my favourite shades from the ’90s and seems to be going strong! This sweet subtle hue pairs well with shades of mint, yellow or even soft baby blues but can easily warm up your silhouette by adding a delightful pop of colour when worn with denim jeans. I personally love a romantic lilac dress - swipe for some picks from my favourites...
