✨ Elevate your styling skills to a whole new level with Sterling Style Academy’s Color Analysis & Personal Stylist Training! ✨

Did you know that mastering color analysis is the key to creating flawless, cohesive looks for your clients? But here’s the catch—true skill isn’t just about showing stunning drapes of colors. It’s about translating those swatches into REAL choices when it comes to clothing, hair color, makeup, and even nail shades. After all, the perfect outfit doesn’t just live in theory—it has to work in-store, on hangers, and in your client’s wardrobe. This is where we come in.

Our training doesn’t stop at the basics. At Sterling Style Academy, we teach you how to go deeper: how to guide your clients in choosing the right tones for their clothing AND how to complement their natural beauty with spot-on hair, makeup, and nail colors. Whether you’re a personal stylist, hairdresser, or makeup artist, this knowledge is a game-changer for your career.

💡 Remember, accurate color analysis is the foundation of outstanding personal styling. Without it, even the most fashionable pieces can feel “off.” Learn how to see beyond the swatch and empower your clients to make killer choices they’ll love EVERY time they shop.

📍Excited? We’re bringing this powerful training to YOU—join us throughout Asia, Paris, Dubai, or the U.S., or of course ONLINE and unlock your full stylist potential!

Register for our flexible 2-5 day courses and start transforming your career today.

Behind-the-scenes at our Bangkok Color Ana

🌈✨ Behind-the-scenes at our Bangkok Color Analysis Training! ✨🌈

Our talented Thai student, who has taken several color analysis courses in draping before, is refining her skills with none other than our training director, Michelle T. Sterling! During this session, Michelle noticed something fascinating – Spring, Winter, and Summer drapes all looked great on her, but she leaned toward the softness of Summer drapes. Meanwhile, her actual wardrobe embraces a much wider range of colors! 💃🎨

This is where the Sterling Color Quality System shines. 🌟 We not only evaluate how colors interact with your features, but we also address your unique preferences. Want to look more tan? Prefer a bold, dramatic vibe over a glowing softness? We’ll guide you through these nuances step-by-step, something rigid seasonal analysis often misses. 💡

The key takeaway? YOU and your lifestyle are always part of the process. And that’s what we teach systematically in both our in-class and online courses. 🖌️💕

Curious to elevate your color analysis game? Join us in Bangkok, or explore other locations across Asia and worldwide from Dubai to the U.S.! 🌏 Details on the bio link. Questions, send us an EMAIL and NO DMs please.

How to Find the Right Jeans for Your Body Type Jea

How to Find the Right Jeans for Your Body Type
Jeans are a closet essential for everyone, regardless of your personal style or profession. However, finding the right pair of jeans for your body type can be a daunting task. With so many different styles and cuts available, it can be tough to know what will work best for you. In this blog post, I’ll break down the different body types and recommend the best jeans for each. Plus, I’ll share why scheduling an Essential Style Consultation with Sterling Personal Styling is the perfect way to identify your body type and what you should be wearing.

Hourglass Figure:

If you have an hourglass figure, you want to show off those curves! High-waisted jeans or boot cut styles are perfect for highlighting your waist and hips. Skinny jeans can be flattering, but you have to be careful not to create an imbalance with your curves. A good tip is to balance fitted tops and sweaters with wider leg jeans to keep your figure proportionate.

Pear Shape:

If your body is larger and curvier at the bottom than at the top, you likely have a pear-shaped body. The best type of jeans for this body type are ones with a flare or wide leg. This style will balance your proportions and create more curves on top. Avoid skinny jeans or super tight leggings, as they will only emphasize your bottom half.

Athletic Figure:

If you have an athletic body type, this means you have a slim frame with minimal curves. Skinny jeans will look terrific on you, as they emphasize your lower half. However, if you want to create the illusion of a curvy figure, consider adding a belt or wearing flared jeans. A good tip is to choose a high-waisted style to give yourself some length and to help create curves.

Don’t keep this money-saving tip to yourself, share it with a like-minded individual who could benefit from this advice.

How to Style a Tweed Blazer for Women: 3 Tips from

How to Style a Tweed Blazer for Women: 3 Tips from a Stylist, Michelle T. Sterling

Tweed blazers are an iconic piece that has been a mainstay in fashion for as long as we can remember. This sartorial staple exudes sophistication and elegance that can elevate any outfit, making it a must-have for every fashion-forward woman. But let’s face it - it can be challenging to style a tweed blazer without looking too preppy or conservative. As a stylist, I often get asked how to wear a tweed blazer, and I’m here to share with you my top three tips on how to style this versatile wardrobe staple.

1. Dress it Up with a Dress
One of my favorite ways to style a tweed blazer is by pairing it with a dress. Whether it’s a flowy maxi dress or a fitted sheath dress, layering a tweed blazer on top can add a touch of sophistication to any outfit. For a chic and feminine look, try pairing a tweed blazer with a slip dress and finish the look with a pair of heels. You can also swap out the dress for a blouse and a skirt combo for an equally stylish outfit.

2. Elevate Your Casual Look
For days when you want to look polished yet relaxed, styling a tweed blazer with jeans is the way to go. This combo is perfect for brunch with friends or a trip to the mall. For a laid-back look, pair your tweed blazer with jeans and a white tee. You can also dress it up by pairing it with dark wash jeans and heels.

3. Go Monochromatic
A monochromatic look is not only chic but also visually elongates your body. For a modern take on tweed blazers, try styling yours with a monochromatic outfit. You can pair a brown tweed blazer with camel pants and a camel sweater for a neutral-toned look. Or, you can try a black tweed blazer with black pants and a black top for a sleek and elegant look.

Styling a tweed blazer can be easy. By following these three tips, you can confidently incorporate a tweed blazer into your wardrobe and create endless outfit possibilities. Remember to have fun with your outfits and experiment with different textures and patterns to make your tweed blazer stand out.
