Many Congratulations to our very own Isobel McGuire who was placed 3rd for her SWI story in a National Competition.

Lynsey then went on to give us an insight into the clothes we wear, and what they tell others about us. She asked lots of questions about our shopping and clothes habits, making us think more deeply about our own thought process behind this. Lynsey talked about the four different areas of colour and how they relate into clothes, Summer, Autumn, Winter and Summer. She explained how once you have your area that this would not change erven if our hair or skin change! Lynsey also talked about style and how this can also change people's perception of you and the vibe you can give off.

This was a very interesting and informative talk and I am sure that it gave the Rural members lots to think about!
