Stop Looking Dated, Part 1

The Everyday Style School

Are you adding on-trend pieces to your wardrobe but still feel like something's off? In today's episode, I'm tackling a topic that might ruffle some feathers—how to stop looking dated!

Over the next two episodes, I'll share how to turn the style ship around without necessarily buying a ton of new clothes. This first part focuses on understanding what "dated" really means, why looking current matters, and how to recognize dated styling. Let's get started on freshening up your look!

Here's what you'll learn in this episode:

• The difference between trendy, current, classic, and dated on the style relevance scale - and why everything (yes, even your "timeless" pieces) will eventually date
• Why wanting to look current isn't shallow - it signals that you're adaptable, engaged with the present, and relevant (especially important in professional settings)
• How modern styling has shifted from "more is more" to "let the pieces shine"
• Three styling techniques that have moved into dated territory
• Practical ways to shock your system in order to train your outdated "style radar"

I hope this episode helps you approach your wardrobe with fresh eyes and the confidence to make subtle but impactful changes. Remember, this advice is for those who want to look current but aren't sure how - if you love what you're wearing, that's what matters most!

Join me next time for part two, where I'll reveal ten specific dated styles that are definitely "out."
