Dear Kristen,

 I work with a company that requires that I wear a uniform. We are required to wear all black, though white is allowed. How can I plan for last minute plans to meet my friends for dinner or drinks and take my daily wardrobe up a notch.  

Thanks,

Dear Allison,

I hear this question quite often, transforming your style as you move throughout your life can be tricky. You are lucky that you have a great base to work with. Basic black. My solution to such events in my daily life is what I like to call, my style emergency kit! An emergency kit should consist of several essentials, this way you are never searching for that quick fix. A couple different pair of heels, to take you from day to night. A stylish top and jacket option. Travel size beauty essentials, everything from baby wipes, double stick tape and a quick drying nail polish. And don't forget your final accessory, a touch of your favorite perfume. Many come in great travel size roller ball or spray styles and are very affordable. For more information on how to put your kit together or to purchase one customized for your specific needs, give me a call or reach me by email. Kristen@novellastyle.com or (813) 409-6684. I look forward to hearing from you and how your spontaneous style to the next level!

 Peace, Love and Fashion!
