Overview

If you've ever stood in front of your wardrobe thinking 'I have nothing to wear', but you've tried all the Pinterest inspiration, capsule wardrobe ideas and Instagram influencer suggestions but still feel like you don't have style - this book is for you. Just Get Dressed unpacks the invisible rules shaping women's wardrobes - from generational trauma, to corporate politics - to help you rediscover (or discover for the first time, ever) the joy of getting dressed. We wear clothes every day, the fashion industry is not one we get to opt out of. We are judged on what we wear, and studies show the impact our outfits can have on our behaviour. But the topic of style is still seen as vacuous and silly, and many women feel judged for either wanting to feel stylish, or getting help with this. Just Get Dressed makes the case for why understanding your wardrobe is not only key to understanding yourself, it's fundamental to shaping the world in which we live. When women's wardrobes are weaponised against them, the women can never win. This is not a book with guidelines or outfit formulas. You've tried those, they didn't work. It's time to unpick the threads of why. This is a book that will untangle your relationship with your clothes, yourself, and the wider context of the world in which you and your wardrobe exist. Just Get Dressed will help you to: Build a wardrobe that is rooted in self-expression, not following rules Reduce your overwhelm when getting dressed Make confident decisions about what to buy and wear Understand yourself on a deeper level, so you can advocate for yourself and what you want PRAISE FOR JUST GET DRESSED: ""It's about identity, confidence, and what becomes available when we choose ourselves, every single day. With a mix of history, psychology and truth bombs, Just Get Dressed will challenge how you see yourself while giving you permission to take up space and show up as you are. I read it at a very interesting point in my life, as my body is changing during pregnancy, and much of my cherished wardrobe no longer fits me. I expected to find that quite challenging, but instead, I finished the book feeling clearer, braver, and far more at home in myself. ""This is a must-read for anyone who's ever said, 'I have nothing to wear, ' or who's looked to others to validate their outfit choices while secretly feeling like a potato in every 'fit. This is your route to more freedom and expression in how you wear what you wear and how you show up in all aspects of your life."" - Sophie Lee, author of Beyond Palatable ""Every woman who wants to earn more needs to read this book. You can't sell yourself until you see yourself, and Samantha is the first person brave enough to say so. Nobody puts language to the working woman's wardrobe quite like she does: she names what you've always felt but couldn't quite articulate, and shows you exactly what to do next."" - Sara Nasser-Dalrymple, author of More Sales Please
