I recently had the opportunity to interview Jennifer Ginty, a personal wardrobe stylist who works with women and men to help them find style that makes them feel comfortable, confident, and empowered. She offers wardrobe reorganization and personal shopping through her business, Defining Style, and she’s devoted to body positivity and radical self-love. Jennifer is also one of our very own coaches for our VIP Membership group, so she gave us the inside scoop on what we can expect to hear from her next year!

Because we’re in a year full of yoga pants and Zoom calls, the first thing I had to know from Jen was why she wants her clients to not put style on the backburner these days? Jennifer says that to her, style is really just a form of self-care! Paying attention to what you’re wearing and how you’re presenting yourself to the outside world, even through a Zoom meeting, is so important when it comes to how you carry yourself and letting your confidence shine through. 

Even when we’re social-distancing, confidence and self-care are both so important! 

 Personally, I’ve been working from home for many years, but I always follow Jennifer’s advice to get myself ready for the day. This helps me to transition from my lounge time to my work routine, and I feel better for doing it! On camera or off, meeting people or not, style is self-care!

Jennifer then pointed out to me that even on a busy day, those few minutes you spend deciding what you’ll wear are really minutes spent on YOU - which is so important! Your ‘me time’ can get pushed aside when life gets busy, but taking just a few minutes a day to focus on yourself will help you feel your best. I know that I feel my most confident when I’m dressed in a way that makes me feel comfortable and stylish. 

As for our VIP group, Jennifer has great things on the way! She’s excited to lead us through the year in style. In her work, she isn’t a fairy godmother; she’s a guide! She’s all about guiding her clients to better understand what they feel good in and are most confident wearing. Personally, I’ve always kind of been a jeans and t-shirt kind of gal, so in my professional life, I like to find comfortable alternatives to my everyday favorite pieces so that I can be authentically myself, but look a little more polished, and feel great. 

When you start to see fashion as a form of self-care and buy yourself pieces you love,  you’ll have a quick pick-me-up whenever you need it. Jennifer counsels her clients to spend time thinking about themselves in addition to focusing on others. Fashion is a great way to do that!

A lot of people think of style as a luxury instead of a necessity, but finding fashion that works for you is a form of self-care that will help you to feel your best every day!
