When you ask how to be beautiful, it’s more that beauty is how YOU see yourself

Beauty is how you see yourself
Dearest Readers:  For this week's FocusOnStyle.com's 15 year online anniversary online post, I want to go even further back to when Focus on Style was my weekly newspaper column. This style motivation post from 1996 is still vital today. Either by a reader email or asked in one of my courses or one on one stylist sessions, so many of us question how to be beautiful in hopes of some secret elixir to instantly transform ourselves. But the truth is that beauty is how we see ourselves... that's the self-confidence that honestly makes us shine and what I try to convey with all my style advice. Enjoy this week's throwback post! - S.H Dear Sharon: I feel invisible, yet people tell me I am attractive. I just don't look the

Mommy Chic: How to boost self-confidence + style? I’m a stay-at-home mom and my fashion sense is a wreck

Our latest reader question comes from a young mother of two who wants to know how to boost self-confidence + style… something, we all deal with. We've gone over similar territory before, but we know everyone needs a refresher or a nudge every so often. Let's dive in and help add some shine to her life and yours and harness her Mommy Chic  fashion potential.  I'm a 29 year-old stay-at-home mother of two. I have recently started struggling with my lack of fashion. I have a lot of clothes in my closet, but I really only wear a couple of things that I like. Most days I just wear jeans (that probably don't flatter me at all) and t-shirts that are stained and worn out. I

How to look pretty when you forgot about taking care of yourself

Looking beautiful is much about how YOU see yourself.
Have you ever been so overwhelmed in what life offers you that you forgot about taking care of yourself? Or continue to put everyone else's needs in front of yours?   Let's help this reader look pretty again- we all deserve that! -S.H. Dear Sharon:  I need some serious advice.

If you don’t take my word, Cindy Crawford is also all about self-confidence in how you look too

Cindy Crawford for C&A
Get with ME on this one. She's gorgeous. She's fit. She's tall. She's successful. She's supermodel Cindy Crawford spieling about her new clothing line that  just debuted in Europe for C&A. So why should we care about what Cindy says back here in the States? The line is for Europe and it's an advert, right? WRONG.  "So much about looking good is self-confidence and how you feel," is what Cindy Crawford says in her "behind the scenes" promo video, here: I ABSOLUTELY agree 3,999%. Because, like Jack Benny's proverbial age of 39, at a certain age, self-confidence is what makes you feel chic, empowered, and alive. >>RELATED: Age-Appropriate Style When it comes to personal style, I'm more about helping you make

Fashion Emergency: Help! I’m in a fashion rut and only 22!

Short torso, long legs, no style... oh my! I would love to be proud of what I wear but it's hard to feel attractive in my comfort zone of T-shirts and jeans. I also struggle with trying to find a style that I feel is age appropriate for me at 22 years old and not too young or too old. I've never considered myself to be very stylish and I tend to stay away from current fads, like gladiator sandals for instance. The brand I rely most heavily on is the Gap and while I'm attracted to the unique style of clothing at Urban Outfitters, I generally feel too lost to piece anything together. If I had to describe the type

Beauty in Balance: Confidence and its role in everlasting beauty

Part Two: The beauty of self-confidence… Did you ever notice how when you’re feeling confident, happy, positive and I-feel-oh-so-fabulous people tell you how great you look? Well, that’s no surprise. The authentic quality of confidence is the oldest beauty secret in the book. No bronzer or shimmery blush can create it. Not even high lights, low lights or a blow out can produce that internal shine that comes from a truly confident woman. Woman, you need confidence with where you are in your life, career-wise, relationship-wise, body-wise, health-wise. If you don’t love and accept yourself right here, right now, it doesn’t matter what beauty tip you apply; you will always be missing something.?? In Chinese Medicine theory, confidence comes from
