From No New Things to a New Lip Color: A Fresh Take on Style
Last week, I spent a joyful afternoon with the brilliant author of No New Things—creating a custom lip color together at The Lip Lab. It was fun, playful, and the perfect reminder that self-expression doesn’t always mean buying more (just because it’s sent to our inbox).
When Shopping Becomes the Default
Reading No New Things left me inspired. The book touches on something I see all the time in my line of work: the pressure to consume. We’re constantly bombarded by messages—buy this, add to cart, final sale, don’t miss out.
And somewhere between the sales alerts and influencer try-ons, FOMO sets in. We buy, and we forget. Or it doesn’t fit. We don’t return it. Time and money wasted on something that never really had a purpose to begin with.
“Because the best outfit isn’t the newest one. It’s the one you feel amazing in.”
So What’s the Alternative?
There is a time for change—a new job, a new size, a new season of life. In those moments, thoughtful additions to your wardrobe make perfect sense. But for the in-between seasons? I believe in the power of less is more.
That’s why when I work with clients, we start with what’s already in your closet. I help you rediscover what you own—creating fresh outfits from familiar pieces and rounding out your wardrobe with only the most intentional additions.
It’s never about chasing trends or shopping just to shop. It’s about building a wardrobe that reflects you—your life, your goals, your style.
