Reachel Bagley of Cardigan Empire

Last night I joined Reachel Bagley of Cardigan Empire at Blissful Living Studio / Domestic Bliss in Mesa for her workshop, “Body Type Prescription.”  It was awesome!! Reachel is unbelievably knowledgeable and is such an easy, entertaining and inspiring teacher.  You may think you know your body type and generally wear clothes that flatter, but Reachel takes your style to the next level with thoughtful, almost scientific, advice on how to dress your best. I highly recommend this class to anyone that is ready to embrace their body type and learn to make “clothes serve you!”

Some of my personal highlights from the workshop…

1. I am not “linear”- I am mostly “hourglass”. I have been under the impression I have the body of 12 year old boy – thin, shapeless, unfeminine . But the numbers (measurements) prove otherwise!!  And Reachel gave me specifics on accentuating my femininity.

2. FIT is most important. More than fabric, prints, anything.

3. The length of your sleeves impact your bust, waist and hips. Interesting point that I have never thought about! You’ll have to take the class to find out more!
