Editorial Policy

I created Styles-4-You to be a trustworthy, personal space where I share what I love, what I am testing, and what genuinely works for me. I am not a fashion or beauty expert, and I do not pretend to be one. I write as a real person who tries things, learns out loud, and values honesty over hype. This policy explains how I create content, how I choose products, and how I keep my work transparent, responsible, and useful for you.

What I Cover and Why

I focus on wearable fashion, beauty routines, and lifestyle ideas that make everyday styling easier and more enjoyable. I am drawn to trends, but I always filter them through real life. If an idea looks great on the runway but feels impossible on a Tuesday morning, I will adjust it until it is practical. I also revisit inspiration from the 90s and 2000s, pairing nostalgia with a fresh, modern point of view.

My Review and Testing Process

When I share a product, I try it long enough to understand how it feels and performs. For beauty, that includes texture, wear time, scent, and how it behaves on my skin over days, not minutes. For fashion, I consider fabric, construction, fit, comfort, ease of care, and cost per wear. If I cannot test something thoroughly, I will say so and treat the piece as a first impression, not a full review. I do not guarantee results, because skin, bodies, budgets, and lifestyles are different. I tell you what happened for me, and I give enough detail so you can decide if it might work for you.

Accuracy, Updates, and Corrections

I check prices, availability, and product details at the time of writing, but these can change. If you spot an error or something out of date, please email me at anna@styles-4-you.com. I will review the note and update the post with a clear timestamp and a brief summary of what changed. When I correct a significant mistake, I will add a visible correction note in the article.

Independence and Integrity

No brand or partner can buy a positive review on Styles-4-You. If a product is gifted, part of a paid partnership, or if an affiliate link is used, I will disclose that clearly within the post near the first mention. If I would not spend my own money on an item, I will not recommend it to you. If something disappoints me, I will explain why and suggest alternatives when possible.

Sponsorships, Gifts, and Affiliates

I occasionally work with brands that align with my taste and with what you come here to find. Sponsored content will be labeled at the top of the post, and any gifted items will be labeled as PR gift. I use affiliate links where appropriate, which may earn me a small commission at no extra cost to you. These links help support the site and my testing process. For more details, please see the Affiliate Disclaimer and Disclosure pages. You can always choose to search for an item independently if you prefer.

Diversity, Sizing, and Accessibility

Style belongs to everyone. I make an effort to show options across a range of sizes and price points, and to include notes on fit, fabric stretch, and tailoring tips. I also highlight inclusive beauty ranges when available. If you need additional sizing context or alternatives, email me and I will try to help.

Sustainability and Care

I believe mindful shopping starts with choosing better and wearing longer. I prioritize pieces that can be styled multiple ways and include care tips to extend their life. When relevant, I will note materials, responsible manufacturing claims, or repair options, and I will link to reputable sources when I reference claims.

Images, Credits, and Sources

I credit photographers, creators, and sources wherever possible. If I use campaign or lookbook images for reference, I will include credits and links. If you believe your work has been used without proper credit, contact me at anna@styles-4-you.com and I will review promptly.

Community Conduct

I welcome thoughtful conversation and different perspectives. I moderate comments and messages to keep the space kind, useful, and spam free. Harassment, discrimination, or self-promotion off topic may be removed. For details, see the Community Guidelines.

Gifts, Press Samples, and Returns

If I receive a gift or press sample, I will mark it and review it with the same standards as anything I buy myself. If a product must be returned after testing, I will disclose that. I do not accept payment in exchange for guaranteed coverage.

Editorial Calendar and Timing

I publish based on what I am exploring and what feels timely for you. Seasonal guides and checklists are refreshed regularly. When a post is updated, I will note the latest update date at the top or bottom of the article.

Contact

If you have questions about this policy or want to flag a concern, please email me at anna@styles-4-you.com. I will do my best to respond and, when needed, adjust my approach. Styles-4-You is a living project, and your trust matters most.
