Wardrobe
The class: If you’re the sort to throw on whatever’s lying on the floor, this is for you. Style for You’s Color Your Style workshop is about finding the palette of colors that suit you best.

Make-up
The class: If you’ve crawled out of the wilderness, One Academy offers a one-on-one course teaching you how to apply foundation (easier said than done, chinstrap), blusher, lipstick, eye shadow and mascara.
