The Vivienne Project
To refresh your personal style in midlife after a long time in a formal workplace
To reconnect with your sense of self as you transition to a new exciting chapter
To ensure you remain visible, vibrant and vivacious!
Who’s it for?
Women who have left their corporate careers behind and are ready to embrace life with a vengeance while becoming vibrant, vivacious and most importantly, visible!
If you feel the world’s moved on some since you put in the hard corporate yards, and you’re still adjusting to your new reality, this program is for you.
It’s time to re/discover your passions, establish new criteria for living life on your own terms and present yourself as fresh, contemporary and relevant.
You’ll receive guidance and encouragement, both online (at your own pace) and via one-on-one in person consultations, to prepare you for what has the potential to be the most exciting chapter of your life!
Why is this important?
Regardless of how you GOT here…
Whether you’ve been made redundant, opted for voluntary redundancy, decided to embrace retirement or found yourself unemployed (and suspect it’s age related) it can feel unsettling once you’ve ticked off those things you longed to do if only you had the time.
If you had lots of responsibility and respect from peers and direct reports but that part of your life is gone, you can begin to feel adrift, a loss of identity, or perhaps even relevance deprivation syndrome.
If you’re no longer bringing home the big salary and you get caught up in the youth centred social media world, you can begin to feel that all your good years are behind you. But let me tell you: nothing could be further from the truth!
In mid-LIFE
You have experience and wisdom on your side, with opportunity lying ahead. You now have time to be the person you’ve been waiting to become!
I'll show you how to throw off the shackles of a conservative workplace and reveal how to travel forward into what has the potential to be the best years of your life.
I’ve been there
I worked in corporate for many years, managing large projects and feeling like a square peg in a round hole. But I left there over 10 years ago and, despite a couple of surprises I never could have predicted, I’ve never looked back and I’m happier than ever.
You’ve worked hard for this front row seat, so don’t squander the opportunity. Let’s be visible and vibrant together!
What You'll LearnExpert-Backed Content
We break things down into simple, manageable parts so you never feel overwhelmed. As you progress, you’ll develop both skill and self-assurance, one step at a time.
Build Confidence
Each lesson is designed to equip you with useful strategies you can immediately put into action. It’s about learning with purpose and seeing real results.
Gain Practical Tools
Donna Cameron, your guide
Through thoughtful examples and guided exploration, you'll learn to approach obstacles with fresh eyes. This course is about unlocking flexibility, not following formulas.
Learn New Approaches
Whether you're starting out or revisiting the basics, you'll solidify core concepts while expanding into new territory. There’s room here to both grow and go deeper.
Strengthen Your Foundation
What you’ll get from this program
Our approach encourages reflection as much as action. You’ll walk away not only with new techniques, but with a deeper understanding of how and why they work. The goal is to leave you with ideas and skills that feel clear, useful, and genuinely meaningful in your life.
Course 01Creative direction and inspiration on how to refine your personal style for the contemporary world
You’ll never again be left wondering whether that item you like is right for you or not.
Course 02A file of clothing styles and silhouettes that work for your particular body shape
You’ll have certainty when buying new things and you’ll know what items to cull from your wardrobe.
Course 03Fashion advice that is unique to your physicality beyond body shape
Includes how to put outfits together, how to select quality textiles, best jewellery and necklines, and advice on prints and patterns
You will be amazed at what a big difference these seemingly small considerations will make to your look!
Choose your level of support
There are two options for undertaking The Vivienne Project:
VITAL (includes 3 x one-on-one consultations with me)
VISIONARY (includes 7 x one-on-one consultations)
Whichever option you choose, you will have access to exactly the same content.
I offer two options because I know some people like to learn independently and others prefer more interaction.
Available Plans:
From in-depth courses to exclusive content, these resources are made to move with you—and move you forward.

Your Questions, Answered
-
The Vivienne Project is a hybrid program. There’s a significant online component that is self-paced and includes video, images, how-tos, a workbook and links to further things to inspire you.
Plus you have the opportunity for one-on-one consultations throughout the program as well. If you can get to me in Melbourne, I’d love to meet you in person for these one-on-one consultations. If we can’t meet in person, we can speak via zoom.
Regardless of whether we meet in person or online, I’ll be there to support you personally and inspire you throughout the program.

Absolutely not!
This program digs deeper to uncover the stories who make you who you are. Only once these are recognised and acknowledged can a personal style that is unique to you be developed sufficiently to feel authentic. Fashion psychology and fashion philosophy underpin this program.

Vivienne means ‘ALIVE’ - and this is an opportunity to feel more alive than ever!
Vivienne; visible, vital, vibrant, vivacious and visionary - these ‘V’ words are what we’re aiming for
Vivienne Westwood, whom I admired and who encapsulated vibrancy, vitality, vivaciousness and visibility, died near to the beginning of this project and I like the idea of this tribute
