Freedom of a choice must have been the most important concept there is. But freedom is nothing without creativity and that thing we call bravery. As we all witness that the entire world seems to have taken the idea of surrealism way to serious in its execution, being free and brave have become somewhat a luxury.
If we think about history, all the innovations and fashion iconic moments came from bravery and starvation to stand out. And when we speak about personal style, I know a lot of you don’t want to “show off” or be “looking like a parrot” and you tend to wear something simple. And that is totally fine, but imagine we would all wear identical clothes and styles, the world would look like one enormous utopia (which is another literature way to say surrealism) and I don’t think neither space or ocean aliens would want to be friends with us. The more differently we express ourselves the better.
Makes the world spark and look a little more authentic.

Also, what happened to doing everything on theme? I know I say it all the time, that it is best to have 2 to 3 styles and aesthetics mixed in one outfit so it won’t look like a comstume, but theme is slithly different vibes than a costume. Theme makes you dig a little deeper to the era of this or that style, and then you are most likely will still add items from current times. And all you need as the occasion as small as going to cinema to watch something wholesome or murderous, your pick.
The struggle though behind it is to stick yo it and actually put time and effort to the whole thing. Impovments are not easy so as buikding new habbits. It takes rime and commitment. But once you are on it — you are unstoppable. Just like Kendrick Lamar when it comes to his creativity, level of pettiness (I personally adore that the most), and new music.
Exactly why the idea of HotMamaBakery community/club/code was born. After working with my clients (who were kind enough to trust me, ily) I noticed a tendency of them slightly going back to their old toxic fashion traits. Those were not working for them anymore, but they were somewhat of unnecessary deep rooted habit that kept surfacing on the top and taking over when the life would have gotten busy.
Myself included, when I am in extremely closed off mood all I want is to wear tons of homeless aesthetic mismatched clothing so I can feel like I am finally and successfully hidden from the outside world. And me looking like that would not attract any attention too. I find it totally acceptable and understandable, however, I highly encourage you to have a slightly stylish approach to such cocoon-types of mood and have not more than one day like that a month. Let’s call it cacoon-freedom-day.
Not going to lie, I have those days far more often, but I make it my priority to dress up and let my individuality spark to the outside workd and holly grail my mood switches immediately too. Dress-up therapy, ladies. for just £19.99/month.

Specially right now, the launch of Hot Mama Bakery is a lot of work for a team of 1 (me) and for fuck’s sake it is scary. But only because I haven’t done it before. But images and thoughts that I have of how all of this is working towards helping others and how wonderful you would feel once the change in your style is not only implemented but tested, and supported — fires up my soul and my entire being to push through and/or lift any obstacles in my way just to experience the joy of seeing more and more people feeling good about themselves (I’m not crying).
Anyway, as usual, I digress. My point is that you should take a leap of faith in your style, you should pop your shit, you should take that chance, and you should take that risk.
Last but not least, you should join Hot Mama Bakery for your own good. The glow up years is totally a thing and it is time to glow up even more.
One of my favourite motivational phrases a decade ago was “if it was easy — everyone would do it” but I am giving you that opportunity to spend less, get more, and have it the easy way. There is nothing wrong with that. So that eventually that will grow and change into “You can if you THINK you can”.

Because if we are not doing the most with our courage and creativity then what are we doing here at all? Wear that outfit, try that trend, evolve and blossom. And finally, be FREE to be whoever you want to be. P.S. Book of the week — City of Girls.
That’s all.
Okay, love you, bye xo
Your slightly nonchalant fashion stylist,
