ABOUT THIS EPISODE
“I just knew that there was this butterfly in me that was just waiting to emerge” – Michelle Smith
This episode is a real-life transformational colour and style story! Come on a journey with us as Michelle Smith talks openly about shifting from a wardrobe of predominately black clothes to a wardrobe full of Summer colours that harmonise perfectly with her natural skin tone.
Discover the secrets to her effortless style, flawless make-up and be inspired along the way as she shares the sequence of events that led to her discovering her colour and style.
Never underestimate the power of the First Impression! Even after 3 1/2 years, Michelle remembers clearly her first impression of me and her introduction to colour. Tune in to hear in detail that memorable day recounted!
Michelle talks in detail about her colour & style journey, ditching the colour black and transforming herself.
” I literally put it all in black in bags right down to the shoes, belts, the necklaces, anything that was black was just gone and I have not worn a single black item in the last three and a half years, ever!”
As a Summer from the Seasonal Colour Wheel, Michelle talks about her colour of elegance and describes encounters with strangers who positively comment upon her appearance.
Michelle is always receiving compliments and that in turn has unlocked her hidden confidence to compliment others on their appearance.
