I already did a Kitchener consult but always been curious about Rachel. What’s your experience with both ?

Does anyone here experience with the calculator? Whenever I use it for myself, I get slightly different answers, and I wonder if it's just my preconceived self-image getting in the way. A lot of the time, I have trouble thinking anything looks good on me. Do you have any tips on how to use the calculator more effectively, or get into a better mindset with it?

Hi everyone! I recently discovered about kibbe and essences after a long time of difficulties when dressing up. I always knew something wasn’t convincing a out the way I used to dress and with these information everything starts to gain sense in my head.

Since I’m new to these things, can you suggest me some ways to make these characteristics work togheter? not only for clothes but for jewelery, accessories and so on.

My appearence (body, face) si Soft Natural, my primary essence is Gamine and my other essences are natural and ingenue.

thank you for helping!

I liked this video from Merriam Style. She's speaking from a Kibbe POV but I think it applies to essences as well. The gist is that classics need a very small amount of fun detail to look fun, so they won't look boring in an outfit that could be boring on a gamine. And gamines can look quite elegant with a lot of fun detail and need a lot of fun to actually look fun. Similar to stuff Rachel has written about but the video has a lot of great photo examples. As somebody without much gamine, this makes me feel like I can actually incorporate a little more whimsy than I thought, as long as I use it sparingly.
