The time is now.  Time for you, that is.  If you’ve been putting your image off for too long because you don’t have enough time, it’s too hot, or you don’t want to spend the money, I want you to ask yourselves what it’s really costing you.  Are you endlessly spending money on the "magic pill" that will make you look fabulous?  Are you avoiding opportunities because you don’t like how you look or don’t know what to wear?  Are you bored with how you look and dread getting dressed in the morning? Then it’s time for a change – a makeover with staying power that will leave you feeling fabulous!

Attention to your dressing will allow you to push-past any self-imposed limitations. Limitations that you put into place that are damaging  to your potential for success.

As you develop your signature style and make sure that you are consistent across every type of dressing you do from casual to formal, people will notice you are starting to become consistent with your look. Their biggest fear about doing business with you is that if you are inconsistent in your dressing will you be inconsistent in the work you are or will do for them.

Since their success could depend on the way you deliver your work to them it becomes an even more important priority to pay attention to the way you are dressing. It relieves the tension and underlying pressure they might put on you that is not necessary but they think it is because you came in dressed ho hum one day and fabulous the next.

Inconsistency in the way one dresses is translated into being inconsistent in the way you do your job and can hurt you when it comes time for promotion.

It is time to put image on the top of your priority list.

Who Are You Dressing For?

Authenticity in your dressing style or the state of being real not only feels good, is easy to manage (let’s face it, you don’t have to remember who you were pretending to be!) and more importantly, it leads to new levels of awareness and confidence.  When you are willing to just be yourself, with the way you dress, in your relationships (business and otherwise) everyone wins.  When we give into the expectations of others, we begin to decrease our joy.  So authenticity in your dressing style is really about being faithful to yourself.

One—Decide
Before anything and before everything comes decision.  You decide how you want to dress and what image you want to consistently show to the others around you.  No ho hum one day and fabulous the next day. I am talking about being consistent with the way you dress.

If you are not a jeans person–do not let someone talk you into wearing jeans.

Two—Focus on the “Why”
After decision, remember to stop and take time for the most important question of all.  Why?  Only you can answer that question.

Three—Commit and Recommit
Did I mention that you would have to decide over and over again and well, you never get to stop asking “why?”  Not if you want to be consistent with the dressing image you have decided best represents you. Every fashion season you will need to see what will fit into your look and what to pass on that does not fit.

Four—Be Consistent
Ahhh. The entire reason you are taking your image journey is joy. It  becomes your reward. Confidence and authenticity are the benefits.

It has been a great week- but it reminded me how fragile we are as humans – and how even if all we aspire to is comfort and happiness, our minds try to protect us  and move us back to that comfort zone whenever we try to move outside of the zone where it feels we are safe.

Where this week have you found yourself starting then stopping on a goal or project to create a new fashion image in your dressing? Did you try to look at your closet and remove some of the outdated clothing items, then suddenly get too busy with other things to get back to it or to finish it?  It happens so often with life that we can miss the signs of stopping ourselves just before we make the big breakthroughs.

Things to be alert for:

• If you are cleaning out your closet, as you are getting close to beginning on your plan, are you beginning to feel sadness that you will soon be losing your friends, those old clothes that are in your closet and need to be removed?
• Then that pesky little nagging doubt of what if I have spent all of this time and no-one thinks you look great.
• Then you might feel like you might be criticized by anyone who sees your new fashion look and you know how much you dislike being criticized.
• Then you might feel like you do not know how you will take it if you get good or bad feedback about how you are dressing.

 
Here is the deal–it is so easy to reside in a comfort zone – unwilling to receive feedback that might shatter the dream that you might find it easier to stop going for it than risk going for it and not succeeding.

But it has to be done.

Start–put an outfit together–then do it again. The more you repeat, the more you will move toward your dream of becoming well dressed.

Dressing is about what works for you and your lifestyle. While you can take fashion into consideration ultimately it has to match who you are and want to look.

Every time of the year has clothing requirements and items that can only be worn during that time. EX: ski clothing is worn in the winter months and if you are going to try to ski in the summer you will have to search for somewhere in the world where snow is even available and skiing is even offered.

On the other hand swimming is available indoors and outdoors so a swimsuit can be used fairly easily year round.

See what kind of activities you enjoy and then locate the clothing that is needed for that activity. Look around and purchase new clothing items for that activity when they are being sold in the stores. While the activity might be something you can do year round, the garments may not be available year round.

Seasonal garments need to be purchased ahead of that season if you want to have a choice in the selection.

• How successful would you be at playing a game if you had no idea what the rules were?
• How successful would you be at arriving at a destination if you had no map, no directions, no compass, and all the road signs were written in a foreign language?
• How could you build a house without a set of plans or bake a cake without the recipe?

Well, our lives are like a game with rules, a journey with a destination, a house built with a plan, and a cake that follows a recipe.

Your physical body has certain characteristics that you have to take into consideration when selecting your clothing, not only in style but in the way the clothing fits. To have a better idea of the styles of clothing that will look the best on your body look at this information and apply it to your wardrobe. You may need an image consultant to help you select the information to input into the online forms. If you are in the Atlanta, GA area send your name and information in the contact tab on the navigation bar and I will get back to you with an appointment.

If you already have a good sense of what looks good on you be sure you have someone else review your choices with you as often sales clerks will tell you that you look good not because you do but because they need to meet the quota set for them by their supervisors. A professional who is not emotionally invested in your opinion of them and neutral to the clothing you are showing to them can give you more information and more objectively.

Where to wear your clothing is always a question and you can get your exact fashion formula by learning about your personal proportion.

Then to keep up with all of the trends and information being changed on a regular basis you can refer to this information updated weekly for you. Color, style, trends, what to as well as what not to wear. Easy to find just exactly what you need to know.

Always room to improve our visual image. Your image is your key to success especially your financial success. Be credible with how you dress and you will have an amazing opportunity to move toward your goals more easily.
