The C8630112289754453Alothes Women Ought To Have From Desk to Dinner:
The Skill of a 16 Hour Wardrobe
Do you have skeletons in your closet? You no doubt know those type of drab, boring, monochromatic, comfortable but not really attractive work outfits that you've been sporting for about 8 years. I call this stuff 'dumpy duds'. They cover up me, these are serviceable and they fit the mold of what was de rigeur for workplace life years ago! Be original! Show up! Be all the woman you are! There does exists a way to create a wonderful wardrobe that allows you to shine. In the '80s, I had been in full-time 'corporate mode'. I didn't even think about putting on outfits that would let me change conveniently from work to evening. I didn't think once about including more "feminine" collections in my closet. It was suit, pantyhose, belt, high heels, briefcase. IBM set the dress code: that's exactly what we donned. Period. It took me over 9 years to even try to put on a camisole that might show through my blouse.
I am about to show you how to add some sass and sensuality to your wardrobe and enable you to maximize your advantage of being a woman. And... I will help you take your wardrobe from the workplace to dinner. The real truth: many of us, in our 40 through 60's, are in pretty much the same shape. Our bodies are not firm and perfect and 25 anymore. There are actually saggy bits, wrinkly bits, or even sunspots sprouting up. Our kind of bodies won't easily fit into body-hugging revealing clothes designed for a size 0 with less than 15 % body fat. But that doesn't mean you need to cover up your body in a 'burlap sack' or dumpy duds and call it a day. If all this is a little bit daunting, here's what you want to do:.
1. Find a personal shopper.
Get your bottom out of the computer chair and into a clothing store; the right, higher end clothes store, like a Nordstrom, Macy, Holt Renfrew, to mention a few. Start asking about personal shoppers and start speaking with them. These folks have the information that you need! Seek a short consultation before you decide to actually engage a Personal Shopper. Carry some of your staple things with you, head into a store, and get an opinion! That can help you decide who you want as a personal shopper and if they could work with you. You ought to look and feel better in the clothes that they choose. If you are less inclined to get an in-person consultation, use the internet and look for fashion consultants for women. The digital age should make it really easy. Google "Image Consultant" or "Image Stylist". Some will work remotely with you. You possibly can take pictures of some of your wardrobe as well as you in some clothes and post them for advice. If all else fails - let a girlfriend who has good taste go through your wardrobe and then out shopping with you. Lunch is on you!
2. Put on appealing makeup.
I recommend that every woman who wears makeup needs to have either a red-colored statement lipstick or maybe a fantastic pink statement lipstick - something that isn't just neutral. A color that asserts: "Here I am!". Visit a MAC counter or to a specialist counter and get a pro to help you choose the shade. Believe me, they see you in a different light than you do (and tell them in which kind of lighting you will normally be wearing it). If you aren't planning high end, one more suggestion is get a tester/sample and ask a friend to judge the tone on you. Also, purchase an "under color" that will soften it during the day. Have them in your purse. When you wear your gentle color during the day (presuming you've got time to put your lipstick on at all), then you can add the darker lipstick at nighttime.
3. Find a fantastic pair of dark colour washed flattering jeans and a pair of statement shoes.
Lots of times and in many situations, you may be able to dress in a wonderful pair of slimming jeans. Dark wash is actually the only pair to consider for the best slimming and "desk wear to dinner" option. Team them with a great pair of shoes! I will call these your CFM shoes (if you have to ask then you might not want me to explain). These shoes are really tall yet still comfortable. They make a statement out of your legs and silhouette. With the brand new platforms that are out there now, you could get quite comfortable platform shoes. Purchase a pair - and no, not simply in black! You could keep them at the office and slip them on as you head out the door. You can even provocatively dangle them off your foot should you be so inclined when you are at a nightclub... men love a high heel and this move especially seems to be a show-stopper! It's not bad to draw attention to your female sensuality!
4. Layers.
Putting on layers is going to create flexibility in your look and help build a more convenient transition from day to night. Take off your suit jacket to show a fabulous blouse and skirt and swap the blazer with a pashmina or wrap which can drape seductively over your exposed arms. Switch up your accessories, adding a little more glitter to your nighttime picks and change up your shoes for wonderful heels. Keep in mind that you are trying to command attention and that will not happen if you look like you just rushed out of the office.
