BACK ON THE RED CARPET!
Today’s episode is about “How To Dress In Your Element! And it includes ~ A Water & Fire Fashion Show…” With a video of the show Embedded here in the newsletter and on my YouTube channel for Where Feng Shui Meets Fashion.
In Fashion Feng Shui ®️ we seek to embody our personal archetypes and elements while simultaneously dressing for our body types, coloring and lifestyle. Discovering our elemental makeup, archetypes and influences can be a truly cathartic and revealing experience. During my journey of discovery I wasn’t surprised to learn that I was Water because I love black. Black represents Water Element. It’s the only color I’m displaying in all of the looks I’m sharing with you today.
What came as a surprise to me during my Fashion Feng Shui ®️ journey was that while Water was a dominant element in my makeup and serves as a strong influence particularly in my color story, it is not my essence. Much to my surprise, my true essence is Fire.
I’m a combination of two opposite elements water and fire which makes for a dramatic result. To understand this from an archetypal perspective, Think Ambivert or someone who is equally as introverted as they are extroverted. The way this shows up in my fashion is that, I love to cloak myself in sheer black flowy frocks but I often dress in a provocative manner. The obvious signs of fire fashion include the color red, body conscious attire, short, fitted, skin bearing and attention getting. Animal prints and actual animal hide such as leather are also representations of fire. Stilettos and triangular, star or pointy shapes also exhibit fire energy. Because I don’t wear red or stilettos and am so into black, I assumed I was purely a water girl! However there’s nuance to this. The telltale signs of water Fashion are as mentioned black and very dark colors like navy, sheer flowy pieces, asymmetry and even fringe. You’ll definitely be seeing a lot of sheer and flowy looks here and even some fringe along with plenty of black. If color was all that mattered it would be easy to paint me as pure water. The thing is, I wear water in a fiery way which is what this fashion show is about. Color is not the whole story. How you style yourself has just as much to say if not more than just color. These 7 looks I’m sharing with you today highlight both water and fire elements and show me in solid black while still lit up with fire accents. Wether it’s my first look, the black mini dress with sparkly sequins, worn with Burgundy leather Doc Martens and fishnets or my black Leather Jacket I paired with a few of my looks or my overall skin bearing dresses with fiery accents, I’m delivering the fire in my styling. Even Sequins is fire! You don’t have to wear red to light up a room. I wear water in a hot way so to speak and so can you!
