Hello, welcome to my blog!!

Elevating Your Professional Image is important for you and me.

"It helps you to make a good first impression and is the bridge to building rapport with colleagues and clients."

TO BE successful at work, you have to look the part, and you can get help to do this. Professional Image Management involves three important areas: creating a good FIRST IMPRESSION, understanding BODY LANGUAGE and incul-cating positive PERSONAL GROOMING HABITS.

 

Positive Professional Image

A positive professional image is essential to a successful career, no matter your age or field. Whether you are looking for a job, starting a new job, or a seasoned workplace veteran, it's a good idea to learn (or relearn) the basics of creating a positive professional persona. A professional persona includes four elements:

• Attire and clothing: How you look.
• Body Language: How you hold and present yourself.
• Attitude and behavior: How you think and act.

·         Practise physical wellness: How you take good care of your body.

Your professional image speaks volumes about you and will help you develop and establish a positive reputation.

Social Etiquette

Etiquette is a code of behavior that delineates expectations for social behavior according to contemporary conventional norms within a society, social class, or group. The French word étiquette, literally signifying a tag or label.

Social grace refers to the general behavior and attitude of being polite and welcoming to people. This means putting other's needs before your own in some cases, like offering a chair to an elderly person rather than sitting down on it first. It also means paying attention to your own behavior to make sure you aren't offending others.

Social grace is extremely important when meeting new friends. Relationships can develop at a faster rate if you show courtesy toward someone else.

Social grace(s) include things like:

• Making proper introductions to people.
• Listening and not interrupting in conversation.
• Using good table manners.
• Maintaining good cell phone etiquette.
• Being careful not to put your foot in your mouth (Sayings about social etiquette mistakes).

Advice On Footwear

When choosing a shoe, there are several factors which need to be taken into consideration to ensure the shoe is most appropriate for the individual. Because everyone's feet move differently and are different shapes, the ideal shoe for one person may differ completely from the next. In addition many shoes are built with different characteristics which make them ideal for certain activities on specific surfaces. The perfect shoe for an individual therefore needs to be selected to suit their feet and their specific needs.

On an average, a person may walk an estimate of a few thousand kilometres during their lifetime! That is tough on the feet!

Footwear is estimated to have started million of years ago.

The unkind weather conditions led to the creation of footwear, which is the use of protective coverings for the human feet.

Today, shoes serve many other purposes.

They are about conveying status, enhancing appeal and more. 

Choosing the right footwear is important.

• Understand different Foot Types, foot structure and shape.
• Understand some common minor foot ailments and their effect on footwe
• Knowing the right Methods and Tools for Measuring Feet.
• Simple ways of daily care for foots.

Apply Colour Therory

The use of colour has been adapted by human through nature and its beings, the plants and creatures that has been growing and roaming in it. The influences are great and are still injecting inspirations and ways to our human livings. Studies has been done to show how colours affect us human in many ways, capturing us with its physical appearance and affecting us emotionally in a psychological way.

Image Coaching (Individual)

Your future success in life, both personal and professional, is in your hands. Where you are now, where you have been and where you are going, is the result of every conscious and unconscious decision you have ever, or will ever make.

For long term social and/or business success you must manage all 5 components of your image. This comprises of your inner thoughts, outer presentation, behaviour, communication skills and reputation. These are the vital areas of image on which you are judged.

Image coaching will help you to enhance each aspect of your image so that you look your best, feel more confident and improve your presentation skills.

Waredrobe Make-Over

Wardrobe clutter is a perennial problem. Some people find it lack of closet space and for others, perhaps too much stuff, and the common complaint is that they have “nothing to wear”!  Our wardrobe should maintain clean, organised, functional, accessible and visible.  It should not be treated like storage.  A well-organised closet will save you time and money as your clothes and accessories will maintain well, thus having a longer wear-life. Getting dressed (especially in the mornings!) will be effortless and efficient.  You can see what you own, create new mix-and-match pieces and use your clothes more efficiently. A well-maintained wardrobe equals an attractive and polished image.

We will help you get rid of the clutter in your life. We will teach you how to create and maintain a well-organised closet. You will also learn the art of creating a capsule wardrobe which is integral to good closet planning.  

With the capsule, you will have ready coordinated pieces of clothing that will take you through from Mondays to Fridays and morning to night.

The Wardrobe Make-Over takes a minimum of 4 hours or more, depending on the size of the wardrobe and amount of re-organisation.  We will conduct a wardrobe audit to determine what you should keep, lose, alter or buy.  We will help you to form clothing capsules and provide you with strategies to maintain and care for your wardrobe.

At the end of the day, you will be able to: 

• Maximise your clothes by building wardrobe capsules 
• Practise different ways of combining your clothes, jewellery and accessories 
• Maintain your clothing longer with proper care 
• Get dressed in minutes and look great 
• Plan smartly for future purchases after knowing what works in your wardrobe.
