Most of us care more about what we look like on the outside than what we look like on the inside. That is an understatement for women. Author tells women to play up their personality and ignore the latest trends. Have you ever wanted to bring your therapist into the dressing room? Do you want to learn how to have a better relationship with your mirror? Carol Tuttle, a Utah psychotherapist and the author of a new book that aims to turn long-standing beauty myths on their head, says the first step is to stop letting outside voices distract you from expressing your own true beauty. Tuttle wrote in Dressing Your Truth: Discover Your Personal Beauty Profile that he started to take back his beauty seven years ago. For most of her life, the wife and mother of five disliked her body and her features, and spent years trying to improve what she thought was flawed. She hated how she looked by the time she was 13 years old. According to Tuttle in a phone interview, mine is a typical example of a female journey. All women go through trauma at some point in their lives. The world of fashion is based on styles and trends. When they don’t personify your type of beauty, the default for women is to think it’s their appearance that’s at fault. She says the current system doesn’t teach us how to bring out our own. A woman who looks stylish doesn’t mean she’s dressing her truth. If you notice the clothing, jewelry and makeup first, then the woman, you can tell the difference. She looks like a natural extension of her true self if she is dressing her truth. Tuttle developed a beauty profiling system to tailor a woman’s wardrobe to her personality type after years of doing therapy and discovering how closely connected a woman’s sense of fashion and her perception of body image are to her sense of self. The four basic types of women are bright and animated, subtle/soft, rich/dynamic and bold/striking. Most current clothing systems only emphasize colour. Design line, texture, fabrication and pattern are only some of the elements in a garment that can add to or conflict with our natural beauty. There is a myth about the perfect little black dress. Tuttle says that wearing black can make a woman look older. It is deadly on most women because of its lack of movement, expression, and stillness. Only type 4s can pull it off. She recommends different shades of brown for the other types. The rich and famous make the mistake of following trends instead of choosing clothes that look good on them and fit their personality. Take Barack Obama. The American first lady is not dressing her truth despite being a fixture in fashion magazines. They dress her as a type 4, which can make her look like a type 3. It doesn’t honor her beauty or her important part in who she is to show her in that look. Joan Rivers makes a fashion statement that matches her personality despite having plastic surgery. Readers will be able to discover their own beauty profile in the book. There is an online course to learn how to dress your truth dot com.
