Ladies, do you ever see a Type 3 outfit on someone else and wonder how they look so put together…and just so themselves?
You can have this too—it’s all about adding in your Secondary Style!
Carol teaches us that one of the best ways to personalize our style is to determine our secondary and bring in elements from that Type.
I’m going to show you how to do this!
I’m Anna K, your Type 3 Expert. Watch as I take one “Base Outfit” and wear it 3 ways, one for each secondary.
For my Base Outfit: I’ve got this amazing, edgy animal print top paired with crop jeans. Classic Type 3 vibes going on.
