It's that time of the year again, walking through the high-street and all the marked down posters are up. It includes some of our favourite stores worth sharing.
I had been thinking all week about my colleague who turned up to work in a strong burgundy peplum dress, black blazer and patent black medium heel pumps. She was giving us a presentation about her area of work on the day, the content was excellent, the presentation was solid and she captured our attention and commanded our respect at the end of it all.
I never really linked the fact she came in looking particularly different to the presentation she had to give, till we were discussing casually about stepping up when you have to especially if you feel disadvantaged within you about one thing or the other. She told me, she felt disadvantaged by her height and needed to wear a higher heel and dress the part, she needed to change her game. First of all, I was impressed she chose a dress, then the colour choices, bold enough and not too hard on the eye was all she needed. However subconsciously these could have worked to her advantage on us all, I couldn't quantify. The most important thing is that it did to her!
How you look and package yourself goes a long way in impacting self confidence what ever the situation. It determines to a great extent how people will react to you, giving them a great first impression of you, then you know you have the open doors to show them what you've got.
It's sales season and I spotted the kind of outfit that make those statements for you. Purple is one of the most prestigious colours that add personality to an outfit, and this shade is not only board room compliant but it's strong and stylish. The Hobbs Jacket has an amazing silhouette and a very stylish cut that can flatter most body types. I shop for game changers. This Hobbs Skirt-Suit is indeed a game changer.
