How to Dress to Match Your Personality + FREE Style Guide!

Want a personal style that expresses the real you? Learn how with the free Beginners Guide from Dressing Your Truth!

Dressing Your Truth helps you create a personal style, true to your personality. Of course we all want to look our best but if you’re like us, it doesn’t come natural! We LOVE home decor and tend to spend more time and money dressing our homes versus dressing ourselves.

Jeans and t-shirts are basically our staples but when we do get dressed up for church or date night or social events, we cringe a little and obsess over what to wear.

We were introduced to the Dressing Your Truth System by our neighbor who swears by it. She’s always perfectly coordinated and her clothes reflect her personality, bright and fun! Here’s what we’ve learned, we think you’ll really like it too!

WHAT IS DRESSING YOUR TRUTH?

Dressing your truth: a beginners guide! Learn how Dressing Your Truth helps you create a personal style, true to your personality. #dyt #dressingyourtruth #energytype #howtodressyourself

The Dressing Your Truth program was created by Carol Tuttle, author of the best selling book The Child Whisperer. DYT is based on her energy profiling system that evaluates everything from personality traits to facial features. Basically, there are 4 main energy movements that each person expresses. We each have a dominant expression which will be our main energy type.

If you ever feel frustrated about your appearance, the problem isn’t you, actually. W H E W!! You simply need to discover your personal type of beauty. Learning your type can make getting ready every morning effortless instead of dreadful. Start the day off Diet Coke AND confidence 😀

Dressing Your Truth 5 Elements

DYT uses 5 elements to identify which clothing, hair and makeup look best on you. They highlight YOU.

  1. Design Line: shape of the garments, collar, neckline, pockets, etc.
  2. Texture: what are you feeling when you touch the fabric? Bumpy, course, soft, etc.
  3. Fabrication: how do your clothes fall? Fluid, flowy, structured.
  4. Pattern: animated, bold, simple, high contrast.
  5. Color: plays a huge part of you. Type 1 wears a tint (light+bright), Type 2 wears tones (soft+muted), Type 3 wear shades (intense+dynamic) and Type 4 wears hues (bold+simple).

How to dress your personality! When you pick out clothes for the day, think about how you feel or want to feel. Love these tips to teach you how to dress your best! #dressingyourtruth #howtodressforsuccess #dressforconfidence

All 5 of these elements combined create movement.

The way you dress should reflects your personality. That makes total sense, right? For example: you would wear black at a funeral because you’re mourning, right. But on the daily, your clothes and movement can reflect who you are as a person.

Didn’t it conflict when Mimi’s character from the Drew Carrey show would wear bright clothes but was a harsh personality? Quite the opposite, Penelope Garcia’s character from Criminal Minds makes much more sense, you know you’re dealing with a happy person based on her bright attire, colorful makeup and fun hairstyles. She’s someone we would love to have lunch with!
