darkemeraldsI've made some progress towards Dressing My Truth, without actually overburdening my one and only credit card (much).
The program suggests a 30-day trial using what you already own before giving away everything in your closet. That gives you time to develop your eye, test the system, andnot be completely, obsessively rash make informed decisions.
So I haven't given away my complete Type 2 and Type 3 wardrobes yet, but they're in bags in the giveaway closet, and so far I'm not looking backwards because the Type 4 style is really working well for me.
My Type 2 Wardrobe: the "Don't be too showy at your age" selection designed not to make too much of a statement.
My Type 3 Wardrobe--not not me, but I'll admit that the colors are too warm for my personality.
This is an early foray into the Type 4 look.
Color isn't the whole of the matter, but it's a big part. I've never worn that shade of blue before, and I find that I feel good in it. Pure white, pure black, and pure hues, though not what I think of as "elegant," actually do work for me, much to my surprise.
When I say "work for me," I mean not only that I like what I see in the mirror, but I like the way people react to me. I feel much less armored and much more naturally strong, if that makes sense. Like I'm looking out at the world from a position of inner authority, and the world is looking back at me in the same light. It's...truer, somehow.

Color question?

28/6/12 01:24 (UTC)Every Type can wear pretty much all colors, but each Type has its own chroma--tints, tones, shades or hues. A red example is here.
But it goes beyond color, to texture, design line, fabrication (aka body or drape), and pattern (prints, contrasts, symmetry).
The goal is a complete outward representation of your energetic "truth", and I have to say, there's really something to it.
If you enter an email address on the DYT site, they'll send you a series of links to free videos that contain masses of good information, plenty to help you zero in on your Type, even if you don't spring for the whole program. The sales pressure is very light and honest--you'll get some emails but you can unsubscribe easily, and there's no sleazy marketing. I trust them--it's a very cleanly run outfit.
Let me know if you do take a look and come up with your Type. I'd love to discuss it further.
