 Influential Educator

Personal stylist Sydney

Karen Burke, a pear body shape, now knows exactly what styles suit her.

For 50 year old, Karen Burke, shopping did not come naturally. Knowing she needed help, she invested a lot time into working together with Angela Barbagallo.

Karen is a senior member of the NSW Department of Education and she likes to dress immaculately from head to toe. Her style is elegant and time-less with a touch of chic.

“I used to loathe clothes shopping. I could never find anything that fitted me properly. Now I am buying and wearing clothes I’d never have looked at before,” says Karen. 

This busy mum-of-two created a wardrobe she loves by organising firstly what worked and what was missing. When she adds new items to her wardrobe they are always a 10 out of 10.

 Style For Men

Richard style journey started quite a few years ago now. He had worked in a very formal work environment as a partner in large accounting firm and now started his own small consultancy and holds a variety of board positions.

Richard wanted help to make sense of his wardrobe and he needed to understand what suited him as in his words “I have no idea”.

“Angela was fantastic, as always. We firstly talked through what I hoped to achieve, then I looked at the shops Angela suggested before our session began. When we met, we went through my wardrobe to check what needed replacing, what could go and what could stay, then headed off to Westfield Bondi Junction for a couple of hours of high quality and targeted shopping. Very constructive and productive with Angela who makes it fun as well rewarding and valuable.”

From Drab to Fab

Personal stylist Sydney

Narelle Murray celebrating her new-found confidence.

Senior Sales Executive and Marriage celebrant Entrepreneur Narelle Murray was one of Style Angel’s clients who struggled with her shape and issues with her knees and feet. She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1997 and never gave much thought to what she was wearing.

“I hated my body and I always wore baggy, mainly black clothes – I looked like the Vicar of Dibley,” says the 63 year-old, who lives in Sanctuary Point.

But all that changed after working with  Angela Barbagallo. She not only helped her in an aesthetic sense by encouraging her to wear colour and fitted clothes, but also helped her career.

“Before I couldn’t look at myself in the mirror but now I have the confidence to go out on dates. I know I don’t have to be size eight to look fabulous.” 

 

From Corporate High Flyer To Enjoying Life

Personal stylist Sydney“I recently took early retirement after working in a corporate environment in Senior Management for more than 34 years,” says Sue Taylor, a lover of golf.

“With a wardrobe full of office wear, I had no idea what to wear casually. I was in a style rut.”

Sue met with stylist Angela for the first time at the Penrith for a style session.

She knew there was more work to be done and loved her Style Angel wardrobe styling and make up lesson.

“Angela opened my eyes to casual fashion and it’s given me a new lease on life. I feel so much better about myself when I feel confident about my clothes.”

Corporate Finance Style for Men

“Angela, thanks for your great style consulting and personal shopping assistance. Before working with you, I found I was concerned with how I looked and I did not have much sense of what clothes worked together, so I stayed with basics I knew, which were frankly a bit boring.Personal stylist Sydney

Now, I feel much prouder and more confident of how I look and I get compliments on my dress and appearance I never used to get before. Yesterday, I met a woman I have not seen for several months and the first thing she said was “Wow, you look fantastic!”.

I have clothes that really fit me well and can be business elegant or casual, funky and fun. I feel in style and younger looking, which is a great thing.

With your guidance, I have a whole new appreciation for dressing in style and I am much more conscious of what outfits work well for business, casual or fun outings.

Finally, I really appreciated how easy it was to work with you and your professionalism at all times. I especially appreciate the great deals we got when we went shopping at David Jones! I have recommended you to several of my friends who have been really impressed with my makeover.”

An Entrepreneur’s Spirit

confidence

Rosemary Shapiro-Liu now oozes confidence.

When Author and Business Coach and  Rosemary Shapiro-Liu had her child at 46 her body changed dramatically.

“My job requires to speak in front of large audiences, so I need to feel confident and comfortable with how my new body looks” says the Entrepreneur.

“Angela gave me some fantastic guidance. She taught me that small tweaks can have a big impact on the way you look.

“I never realised the length on tops, can make a huge difference to an outfit. What I have learned has changed my life forever.”

 

Giving Her Style Rut The Boot

Judy Jones kicked her style rut to the kerb.

“Raising my daughter alone, I focused on work and family and never gave any time to how I looked,” says 63 year old Executive Assistant Judy Jones.

“I was feeling drab and frumpy before I met Angela eight years ago. She helped me create myself and build self-esteem, which changed my life in many ways.”

Judy who is an executive assistant in Sydney, hired Angela for a colour and body shape consult and came to many Style Angel style and make up and hair workshops.

She worked hard to create a timeless wardrobe that suits her shape and her colours.

“I recently overheard my daughter telling my grandchild ‘Granny looks after herself and she is beautiful’. I never thought I’d hear anyone talk about me like that!”

So... this morning Valentino and us got picked up So... this morning Valentino and us got picked up by a Tesla X. Val’s dream car. It took us into the city, we hopped on a ferry ⛴ and met Joe & Christie  for lunch. So much fun 🤩
Happy 11th birthday my sweet Valentino ♥️ seei Happy 11th birthday my sweet Valentino ♥️ seeing you grow up is a gift 🎁.
I am not usually one to pick just one brand but as I am not usually one to pick just one brand but as I saw that nice top left jacket come past on an Instagram post by Portmans of, what I thought, a trench that indeed was a cardigan. 
Super relevant for this time of year to have nice layers. Below styled in many ways, with jeans, leather, dress.
In selecting your new layers I suggest you start paying attention to the sleeve. (2nd photo). 
Zooming in will give you greater detail on where that sleeve sits. it is set in but way over the shoulder which gives you a (small) "batwing" look. 
Pear, Apple and Hourglass body shapes for example look better with a set-in sleeve as it gives them more definition. A beginning and an end of the body 
Inverted triangle and some Rectangle shapes love more room in the upper body. 
The bottom rows shows the set in sleeves examples.
Nothing is wrong as such, wear what you love, and having more information on how to assess styles will strengthen the ultimate purchase.
And let's face it, these layers you love stay with you for many years.

Greens have a soft spot, love that colour. From mint to khaki and everything else in between. 🐉
An undervalued colour in my humble opinion. It 🌿accentuates any blue (yes!), green, hazel and brown eye colour. Every colour season has a great range of greens 💚 in their colour swatch.
That lovely green leather skirt... so nice! 🐛 What is your favourite? 🍀

WHICH TOP STYLE SUITS YOUR BODY SHAPE BEST? These WHICH TOP STYLE SUITS YOUR BODY SHAPE BEST?
These two looks that are side by side on the David Lawrence website are a great example of how you can wear a similar look but pick the style most suited to your body shape.
AND HERE IS WHY:
The top on the left has two panels of fabric sewn together so there is plenty of upper body room for an inverted triangle or a fuller bust/tummy rectangle. Worn with slimmer pants, it would make a great outfit for their shape.
The silk shirt on the right does not appear to be too slim in the width and the arms have plenty of room.
Pear is suited to the set-in sleeve and the pants higher-finish looks great too. If white pants scare you, you could choose a darker colour pant and pick up that shade in the shirt pattern.
An hourglass body shape will have enough room in the upper body for the shirt on the right and the neckline is suited. A singlet could be worn to give relief to the first button.
An apple body shape could wear the shirt on the right as a jacket with a top underneath to create a slimming vertical colour block.
A rectangle can also wear the top on the right.

This simple navy Marcs dress is a great example ho This simple navy Marcs dress is a great example how you can make line and design work for you... or where it could not work out so well.

First thoughts: high neckline, vertical stripes, strong waist definition, stripes on the arm at bust level,  horizontal stripes bottom. 

I will start with the neckline, this would suit a pear or a rectangle body shape. Hourglass, Inverted Triangle or Apple shapes usually like a lower cut neckline. 

The vertical lining are excellent for an inverted triangle (wider upper body), as are the horizontal lines on the bottom. This would also suit a rectangle shape and the waist definition would creat a slimming effect.

The pear 🍐 shape ideally would a suit a dress like this with the stripes angled in reverse. Wide across the top and long across the skirt part.

LATE SUMMER LAYERS This week a couple of my favour LATE SUMMER LAYERS
This week a couple of my favourite layers came out as I got a bit nippy inside the house. 

And in true summer style, I subsequently took those layers on and off many times during the day.

This inspired me to do a bit of a surf around the favourites and see what is around.

And this time I sectioned them into their body shape category in a Pinterest board. link 👇👇👇
https://www.pinterest.com.au/styleangel3/late-summer-layers/

What is your favourite layer?

I have a few and all in different materials depending on how cold I am. 

First my Diana Ferrari jeans jacket (that is suitably "vintage" by now).

Then a light grey long line thin woollen Country Road cardigan with a split on the side.

Lastly a black bamboo waterfall cardigan by Bamboo Body that is just so comfortable on the skin.

REPURPOSE A DRESS TO A SKIRT Sewing is one of my h REPURPOSE A DRESS TO A SKIRT
Sewing is one of my hobbies I started recently. It gives me a chance to sort out clothes that are not working any longer. 
This Zara dress I have had for a few years but, with an increasing bust size as I’m heading towards my 50’s, the top was literally strangling me and buttons ready to pop. 
So I thought I would create a skirt from it, and use the sash to make a band so it is more sturdy in the waist. 
I cut the dress a little above the waist, folded the fabric to the next button and pinned the band on. Sewing in a straight line I find such a satisfying job. 
Added a press stud at the top for some extra hold and voila, I can now wear this skirt with so many tops. 
Have you ever renovated a piece of clothing? Would love to see & hear your stories.

Today, something a little different. With this dre Today, something a little different. With this dress by SEED Heritage the canvas is so blank you have many options to mix and match.
Yellow is one of those shades that goes with any other colour, a bit like black, grey, navy and purple. 
Which one is your favourite? Monochrome, neutral or colourful?
All the items are described under the image and linked back in Pinterest.

The dress is always the start of the inspiration. The dress is always the start of the inspiration. Therefore I make sure I pick a dress that inspires me. Those pockets of colours will allow you to take this dress anywhere.
The dress is by Marcs and today I added accessories and shoes from new labels you may not have heard of.
The top left turquoise and coral I have used before and are by Lovisa.
The top right and middle earrings are by Adorne. Turquoise is such a great accent tone with navy. 
The bottom navy wedges are by Diana Ferrari found on the David Jones website. 
The strappy sandals are by an Italian shoe wear label called Le Gazzelle, who make their shoes by hand, sold at Peter Sheppard.
The coral wedges are super cute and I found these on Styletread (these are the Melbourne people who bought Diana Ferrari company) by simply putting in wedges and selecting orange as the colour filter on their website.
The handbag I found on the David Jones website and is by Social Anxiety label. They make stunning leatherwear and their story is really cool. 
Their whole story is on their website but this resonated with what I hear so many clients say - I want quality not quantity.
"We’re about worrying less on measuring up to others’ perceptions, not taking ourselves too seriously and reassessing real value in all areas of our lives. We’re for a life lived simply, with a greater appreciation for things that last rather than the latest fashion fad." 
Just so I can keep a track of where I found all these treasures have a look on the Pinterest board.
