The first steps to making your wardrobe really work for you

Looking for a few hints and tips on how to declutter your wardrobe?

Look no further – this week’s guest on Girls Around Town is here to help!

Joining June in the second hour of the show, personal stylist Michelle Wright will be sharing a little bit of advice to ensure that, whenever you’re looking for something to wear, the words of American writer Amy Fine Collins will ring true…

Opening up your wardrobe should be like arriving at a really good party where everyone you see is someone you like

Known to clients and followers on social media as Mrs Stylewright, Michelle will be explaining why and how she became a stylist and how she now spends her time helping women build their confidence through what they wear and making sure that when they look in the mirror they love the person looking back at them.

She’ll have news too of how she did just that for some of the ladies at Deborah Firmstone’s recent fundraising Swishing Event in Grantham before it’s down to the real nitty gritty…

That all-important wardrobe cleanse that she insists isn’t just about throwing stuff out!

“It’s about making your wardrobe work for you, helping you to style what you already have and making a wish list of items to help you achieve your dream wardrobe,” says Michelle, who’ll have those hints and tips to help you do just that.

Don’t forget Put On Your Sunday Best on 107.8FM, on the apps or online this weekend to join Michelle and June, who’s expecting their chat will encourage her to finish the wardrobe clear out she started over the Christmas/New Year break…

And no doubt give her an excuse to draw up that wish list ready for the summer months ahead!
