Between trend overload\, body changes\, motherhood\, work\, ageing\, fast fashion and  the pressure to constantly reinvent ourselves\, getting dressed has quietly become overwhelming for many women. Sally’s approach cuts through the noise. Rather than  telling women what they “should” wear\, STYLED helps readers understand their personal style\, reconnect with confidence and build wardrobes that reflect who they actually are and how they really live. Warm\, inclusive and deeply practical\, STYLED offers a smarter and more compassionate approach to fashion — one rooted in self-expression rather than perfection.Through styling principles\, wardrobe strategies\, outfit  formulas and honest advice\, Sally helps women create wardrobes that work harder\, mornings that feel easier and style that feels authentic. 								\n				\n																														\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n					About the author 				\n				\n																														\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n									Sally Mackinnon Sally is one of Australia’s most trusted and experienced personal stylists\, having founded Styled by Sally in Melbourne in 2007.

But STYLED is about far more than clothes. At its heart\, the book explores why so many women  feel disconnected from their wardrobes — and often from themselves. Between trend overload\, body changes\, motherhood\, work\, ageing\, fast fashion and  the pressure to constantly reinvent ourselves\, getting dressed has quietly become overwhelming for many women. Sally’s approach cuts through the noise. Rather than  telling women what they “should” wear\, STYLED helps readers understand their personal style\, reconnect with confidence and build wardrobes that reflect who they actually are and how they really live. Warm\, inclusive and deeply practical\, STYLED offers a smarter and more compassionate approach to fashion — one rooted in self-expression rather than perfection.Through styling principles\, wardrobe strategies\, outfit  formulas and honest advice\, Sally helps women create wardrobes that work harder\, mornings that feel easier and style that feels authentic. 								\n				\n																														\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n					About the author 				\n				\n																														\n				\n						\n					\n			\n						\n									Sally Mackinnon Sally is one of Australia’s most trusted and experienced personal stylists\, having founded Styled by Sally in Melbourne in 2007.
