Welcome to my Style/Fashion Blog!

I'm Ann-Marie Dyer. Consider me your personal stylist.  I love creating outfits on a budget for the everyday woman!  I love to see women look fabulous but my goal is to have them  feel fabulous in their clothing, in their bodies.   Style is an outward expression of who you are. Here are a few of my favorite style quotes.

"Fashion is what you’re offered four times a year by designers. And style is what you choose.' - Lauren Hutton

"Don’t be into trends. Don’t make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress"

Audrey Hepburn is my style icon..she epitomized great style,class and elegance.  She was an actress, spokeswoman and great philanthropist. Even when she was dressed casual, she looked fabulous.

Anyone can get dressed up and glamorous, but it is how people dress in their days off that are the most intriguing.' - Alexander Wang

I love  dressing up and getting dressed.  I feel like Marc Jacobs. He said 'To me, clothing is a form of self-expression - there are hints about who you are in what you wear.' - Marc Jacobs

We all have responsibilities but just as it is important for you to take care of your loved ones, it's more important to take care of yourself.  Take time to dress up, take the time to have a spa day,  even if it's just to get a mani/pedi, take the time to go shopping, take the time for YOU. YOU deserve it.

I will be posting pics of various styles incorporated with fashion and how to put a "look" together, hopefully it will inspire you to try something new, to think outside the box                           and embrace a new look and new styles.  

Dressing/shopping/fashion should be fun. Please feel free to give me feedback or leave comments. I hope you enjoy reading my posts as much as I enjoy writing them.
