Today's woman can easily assert her femininity and unique sense
of personal style in a business setting and by doing so enhance
her power. You might be saying that this isn't so easy. Women in
corporate America are expected to wear boring boxy navy or black
suits. Especially, the higher your rank, the more you are
expected to subscribe to the "male standard" of attire to assert
your power.
Expected is the operative word. Who sets the standards for
expectations? You do! Where is there a uniform code for women to
wear standard business attire in a business setting? I
definitely haven't come across any legislature. Also, you don't
get paid because of what you wear. In fact, successful women
CEOs and executives can just as easily be found in jeans. I
would dare say that fashion and work do go hand in hand. The
fashion industry seems to have realized this as well. Today's
fashion designs have taken a decidedly more feminine, edgier
look. A look that celebrates a woman's power, success and
personality. Clothes and fashion accessories help a woman play
up both her credibility and her appeal to her team, business
associates and customers by making a statement about her
individuality.
Therefore, the real key to dressing for wealth and success, as a
business woman, is being true to yourself. Your comfort with who
you are and the comfort with what you're wearing, will translate
into extreme confidence in your appearance. This then will
ultimately translate into great performance. Great performance
and confidence then propels you forward to success and wealth.
I also want to point out that comfort with what you're wearing
is absolutely essential. It's okay to want to be a Fashionista,
but if you are just wearing certain clothing and accessories for
fashion's sake and don't feel comfortable, then leave those
items for others to buy who do feel these items express their
individuality. Also, if you are a person who loves suits and
decide to become a jeans wearing type because your team wears
them, stick to your suits. Don't try to be something you're not.
Again, be who you are. This philosophy is how you attract
success and wealth. You're a hard working business woman. Please
celebrate your individuality. You'll see how your performance
goes through the roof. Also, allow the same for your team. Your
success and wealth will greatly benefit from everyone's
increased productivity!
So, go ahead and express yourself by setting new standards in
business attire. A look that celebrates your power and
personality propels you forward to success and wealth. M
