5-Day Fall Fashion Challenge: Highlights


Hey, beloveds! In yesterday's post, I gave you five reasons to join the free 5-day fall fashion challenge. But as I have been participating in it for the past two days, I think I definitely undersold it.

In this post, I'll give you some of the highlights, so far, and then, I encourage you to join it, if you haven't already. It's not too late, because each day, there's been a video for that day's challenge, and you can find those in the challenge group.

Closets, Closets, Closets


Pardon that headline! I was watching Modern Family last night. ;)

So, day one laid the groundwork for the 5-day challenge. My mentor, image consultant trainer and friend, Shari Braendel, from Fashion Meets Faith, is leading this challenge and she says you have to start with your closet. 

I agree, because even though closet work can be the chore part of the extravaganza, it will make everything else SO much easier.

She gives you a list of steps to take to get your closet ready, that include clearing out summer's wardrobe, and re-evaluating what you have planned for fall. But the first step is to take everything out of your closet, and the second is to organize them on your bed. You'll see why this makes perfect sense when you listen to her video.

Fall Trends


​Trends help us look relevant, like we know what we're doing when we're getting dressed. But you don't want to look like you're trying too hard or trying to be something you're not. - Shari Braendel

​In today's video, she shares all the fall trends we can choose from as we create our fall capsule wardrobe. I gave you a list of them recently, myself, in this post, on five trends you can wear at home.

But I like the way she presented them and gave tips along the way for how to incorporate them. When she got to the fall trend colors, she gave one to each color dominant type.

My type, warm dominant, gets olive, for example. And score, I already have quite a bit of it in my wardrobe. Which brings me to today's challenge...

The Fall Treasure Hunt

​Part of the homework for today is to look closely at your fall wardrobe to see which of the trends you already have.

​Fun, right?

And we were asked to post a photo of ourselves that looks like fall 2020. In my picture, I am wearing three trends: floral print, animal print and leggings.

What's in your closet?
​Here's a free fill-in-the-blank worksheet I created, that you can download and print to do your own treasure hunt. Just watch the video first, because she gave us quite a list of possibles to look for today.

The Outfit Formula


In the video, Shari cautioned us against trying to wear too many trends at once. And she gave us an outfit formula that you can use to create a look that is just right.

I highly recommend joining the 5-day challenge & watching these first two videos. They are full of style tips you can use this fall.

See you there!

Love, Jeanine

    ​Hi, I'm Jeanine Byers :)

    I'm an author,  Christian image consultant, proud former homeschool boy mom of a college student, Hallmark movie fan and big cuppa tea drinker. 

    I believe that creating your signature style is a spiritual calling. It's about seeing yourself as God does and delighting in your own beauty and style.

    I'm specializing in color analysis and signature style for black women.

    As women of color, we often aren't analyzed correctly when we receive color analysis. And all of our lives, we have been given sometimes subtle, and sometimes more overt societal messages about not meeting the cultural standards of beauty.

    My mission is to help you discover, embrace and celebrate your own beauty and style. 

    Thanks for dropping by! I'll see you soon.

    Love, Jeanine
