Jean Shrimpton
It's Springtime! 

And the best part about it? The fashion of course! 

There are so many amazing colours, prints and fabrics inspired from the 1960's with a sophisticated, updated twist to choose from. 

This season,  it's all about taking inspiration from an era of sleek cuts and bright bursts of pop colour. 

Think Jean Shrimpton, Twiggy, and Jackie O as your style inspirations. 

Tailored and minimalistic, or graphic and printed are key looks to go for. Take a look at how you can work these trends into your existing wardrobe! 


Shift dresses: Take this classic cut which is flattering on all body shapes and add a 60's feel to it by choosing designs with some bold black and white prints, stripes, or geometric grid formations. Florals are also big this season, so either wear it in your dress or as a cardigan on top.


Boden



Black and White: The newest IT combo. Wear it from head to toe in a black and white colour block combo-a sharp, mod look that's perfect for the workplace, or introduce some black and white stripes or geometric prints into a blazer or a skirt. 




Banana Republic


Graphic prints and colour: Inject some colourful graphic 60's prints into your blouses and/or pants. Too daring for you? Try it in a handbag or a silk scarf. Bright colour is also everywhere this season so make sure you have at least one colourful item in your daily outfit.







Cropped jackets and pants: Wear your denim, leather or even blazers a little shorter and lighter this Spring. The tailored cropped pant is the way to go this season too-make it work friendly by pairing it with a nice pair of pointy pumps. 




Pointy flats and Kitten Heels: Your feet will thank you this season as its all about comfort. The pointed toe will elongate your silhouette and go perfectly with your  cropped pants. 





Jackie Onassis 
Statement sunglasses: Go Jackie O and don a pair of large, round 60's inspired sunglasses

Image Consulting and Holistic Wellbeing

Want to feel good? Colour has a tremendous impact on how we feel, how we perceive others, and what we communicate without saying a word. Studies have shown that colour, whether in our environment or in our clothing can make a difference both emotionally and psychologically.

We can channel this powerful effect on colour into all aspects of design, as well as using it as a source of healing. Colour Me Beautiful uses this wonderful property of colour into offering our clients advice on their best colours which complement their skin tones, hair and eye colour, as well as reflecting their personalities. 

Golden undertones in your hair, eyes or skin will give you a warmer colour range whilst pink and bluish undertones ensure that you will look better wearing cooler colours. Most warmer complexions will look good wearing salmon, orange or rust tones. Most cooler complexions suit pinker shades.

Colour Me Beautiful teaches and trains professional image consultants, with the aim of educating and helping people understand ways to dress and present themselves both personally and professionally. Consultants who have successfully completed our training programs may go on representing Colour Me Beautiful, or move on and set up their own personal image consulting business.

Veena Dansinghani has chosen to do just that, and more!

Combining her knowledge and experience working as a Colour Me Beautiful Image Consultant, together with the skills and expertise from a team of holistic practitioners and professional career trainers, she has formed "Inspire 2 Aspire Consulting”-a company which offers image consulting, life coaching and holistic healing services and workshops. 

For image consulting, the company offers Colour, Makeup and Style consultations and home parties, as well as workshops teaching people how to dress for success in the corporate world, how to improve body image and how to establish your personal branding through the way you dress and carry yourself. Veena's goal is to help real people with their personal appearance with a realistic view to budget, lifestyle and personality.  To contact Veena and discover more about what she offers, visit our website.

If you are interested in pursuing a career in fashion, makeup and beauty, a career switch into image consulting might be just the ticket for you! 

Like Veena, you could also combine your current business with Colour Me Beautiful and create a one of a kind company. 

We offer professional training programs in various areas of image consulting, and equip you with the knowledge of setting up, running and marketing your very own business. You will have the backup of Europe's leading image consultancy Colour Me Beautiful, which has been a forerunner in the field of personal styling since 1983.

Party Fun!

In the spirit of the upcoming festive holidays, why not grab a few of your friends together for the ultimate Colour Me Beautiful experience? Colour Me Beautiful’s parties are a great way to get a group of your girls together to experience either a Colour, Style, Make-up or Fashion makeover-all in the convenience of your home!

In addition to being a fun, social and interactive experience, all participants gain invaluable knowledge on the art of shopping and dressing which will last them a lifetime.

Our Colour Me Beautiful consultants host a variety of home parties, from ones for hen-nights, baby showers, pick-me-ups, to a simple relaxing girls night in. We tailor make the Colour Me Beautiful experience to suit your own personal needs.

Take a look at Carla Naisbitt, our spunky Brazilian beauty hosting a Colour party for a group of women in their home. Carla helped these women identify their complementary colours and those they should avoid. The women all took home a colour swatch wallet as a guide for their future shopping excursions.



One of our top consultants Ella Westendorp, a native Dutch painter and fashion designer, often hosts Makeup and Fashion parties for women at the fashion boutiques Blue Sea Blue and Polka Dot, as well as members of the American Women’s Association. Watch Ella as she selects the best styles, cuts and fabrics for these women, and helps them identify their 'Style Personality', helping them express their individuality with their wardrobe selections.




Check out our beautiful soon to be mother of two Samantha Birkwood with her adorable daughter as she poses at the ILCM's Melbourne Cup Day function, where she offered CMB gift vouchers as prizes for the event.


Samantha frequently hosts makeup parties to help women understand what their 'Beauty Personality' is, choosing cosmetic colours which best suit their skin tone and facial features. See Samantha in action as she carefully talks one of her clients through how to apply makeup to enhance her facial structure and colouring, and to experiment with different hues and shades for various social occasions. 


Veena Dansinghani, our multilingual consultant who speaks English, Cantonese, Hindi and Sindhi, tries a different approach by doing a complete style makeover on the Toni and Guy team!



Our consultants from India- Sindhu George and Malini Hemlani, often host parties for their fellow Indian female friends, specializing in giving tips with their culture and customs in mind.




The key in hosting a successful party is ensuring your clients are relaxed and comfortable, and very often this includes being sensitive to their individual needs, personal preferences and cultural norms. Given their international and diverse backgrounds, our consultants have experience dealing with clients from all walks of life.
Why not book a party for your friends and family this upcoming holiday season? A great way to welcome the new year with a fresh, updated look and an alternative, practical approach to shopping!

Take a look at what some people have said about the Colour Me Beautiful experience:-

"Having my colours analysed has been a real revelation. It is so much easier to get dressed now that I know what colours look good on me. Thank you for helping to simplify everything. Now I love looking at my wardrobe.  I also found the makeup lesson was extremely helpful. I can’t believe it but I can put my makeup on in no time and I look so good yet natural. Did I say that? That’s the new confidence you gave me speaking. Really can’t thank you enough." - Sue

"Every time I open my closet I think of you and smile. Thank you so much for giving me my confidence back. You have truly changed my life."- 
Elaine
