September 14th, 2009

Accessorizing your wardrobe is essential for a polished, well pulled together look. Great accessories are simply part of the basics for a great wardrobe, and that includes jewellery, belts and watches. It just makes good style sense.

So what are you waiting for? It’s time for an Image Checkup, and if you like jewellery, you’re going to love the accessories I now offer my clients.  Consider adding to your wardrobe fine Sterling Silver jewellery, made with the highest standard in quality, style and craftsmanship.  Designers and artisans from all over the world create these beautiful handcrafted jewellery pieces, some made which fresh water pearls and semi-precious stones! I’ve searched high and low for fabulous jewellery to fit every life style – casual wear, dressy casual, career, business, travel, evening and special events. My line of accessories has it all, and for every age.

These beautiful jewellery pieces are made from the finest .925 Sterling Silver, no painted or plated fashion or costume jewellery. Complementing the beautiful Sterling Silver are colourful semi-precious gemstones and natural materials including Freshwater Pearls, Coral, tooled Leather, and much more. So, there really is something for every taste and style.

A Great Hair Day!

April 29th, 2009

Check out Oprah’s Best Life Series: Oprah’s Weight Gain Confession.  I love her hair in that video - beautiful soft full curls cascading down and around her face and on her shoulders.  While she is talking about weight gain being about what you are hungry for in your life and having balance, I can’t help noticing her hair in that video.  Fabulous! 

Oprah - you need to change your current hairstyle.  Long, straight and parted in the middle doesn’t work for you - it’s ages you, doesn’t enhance your features, and doesn’t create enough balance for your body.  You’re beautiful, and bringing back those gorgeous curls will show off your fabulous face, engaging smile and voluptuous figure to the best to create a winning image!

Michelle Obama Defines the Sleeveless Style

April 27th, 2009

Time to get your arms in shape.  With Michelle Obama now a style icon, the sleeveless is on the rise.  Showing your underarms is not always appropriate, and it’s advisable to wear a jacket or sweater for more conservative environments.  A tasteful dress to show off your femininity is a perfect addition to your wardrobe.  If your shoulders tend to slope or need more definition, select a dress with a pronounced and structure collar to create the illusion of more fullness on top.  To enhance your curves, select a dress with shape with a cinched in waist or belted. 

To achieve the beautiful sculpted arms, invest in some 2, 5, 10, and 12 pounds dumb bells to work on those biceps and triceps.  Muscle definition is beautiful and sexy, and if you are carrying around heavy baggage or kids, work on your core to ensure when lifting you protect your lower abdomen and back. 

This is the perfect time to work on defining your arms, shoulders, back, and core to be ready for more revealing gowns and summer dresses.  And don’t forget the quads - get those legs into shape for shorts.  If you are wondering about the perfect length for a skirt, it’s at the narrowest part of the knee and no more than two inches above the knee.

Spring Style Sense

April 22nd, 2009

The sun is shining and the cherry blossoms are out!  Spring has finally arrived and it’s time to tuck away the heavy sweaters and winter clothing and pull out the lighter, brighter wear for the coming warm weather.

 

This is the ideal time to get cracking – to clean up your closet, clean up your desk, get your receipts in order for tax season, and it’s time to clean up your image.   Wouldn’t you love a whole new look?

 

So let’s try a little exercise.  Check yourself out in front of the mirror.  Be honest.  Is there a bit too much weight?  Could your diet be improved?  Could you be drinking a little more water throughout the day instead of coffee?  Could you do with a new haircut and style?  It is time to get a new wardrobe or new suit?  Perhaps your pants could be fitting a bit better and it’s time for a great new pair of jeans.  And your shoes and accessories – are they working for you?  Does your skin look tired and your makeup need refreshing?

 

Creating a whole new look can be much easier than you think.  As an image consultant I have clients from all walks of life coming to me for advice and to help them select the right pieces.  Both women and men, from stay at home moms to entrepreneurs and executives, and sports celebrities, helping my clients put the whole look together is not just about picking up a few items that are hot fashion statements.  Most people want to express their own individual sense of style.  They aren’t interested in being a carbon copy of anybody else, especially their image consultant. 

 

Sometimes that fresh new look needs to be preceded with a fresh new perspective on life.  Clarification about what you want out of life and how to move forward in various areas of your life.  Sometime the day to day activities drag you down and there is just so much to do that you hardly feel you have time to take in a deep breath and enjoy each moment.

 

So ask yourself, do you need to get those biceps and triceps into shape?  Could your abdominals do with a bit of tightening?  Are your quads getting a workout?  Are you ready for summer wear – the t-shirts and shorts?  Are you focusing on regular exercise and a healthy diet to keep your energy up?  Your brain power needs the fuel and it is dependent upon what you pump into your body.  It might be time for a cleanse to flush out the toxins.

 

It might be time to get a pedicure, and book for a good exfoliation for the face and body.  The right skincare and makeup can make the difference to renew your skin and help diminish fine lines and wrinkles.

 

A great image starts from the inside out – values, character, ethics, your thinking, attitude and perspective, your confidence and self esteem, your diet, health and exercise, your skin, the way you look and act.  It’s how you show up and how you respond to life. 

 

This June will be my 19th Anniversary in business.  I’ve always been devoted to creating your image from the inside out, designed to leave a great lasting impression and to give you great lasting results.  Out with the old and in with the new.  Have you got the EDGE?  It’s time for you to get a whole new perspective for yourself and your business.  It’s your time.  It makes good StyleSENSE to invest in yourself and impress yourself.  You are exceptional – it’s time to show the world!
