Does Your Look Uniquely Communicate Your Personal Brand?
Neiman Marcus …Just wrapped up a VIRTUAL SHOPPING session for a gal who has an upcoming wedding to attend and has no time to get to the store. While I sent options from 3 stores, Neiman’s always has a flare for somethin’ special. …Where’s your favorite place to shop for Special O? Does your special occasion attire – and your daily attire – uniquely communicate who you are and what your brand is about? Remember, your personal brand can be distilled down into the experience of you through how...

BEFORE AFTER When you purge your closet and have to make a stop – choose Dress for Success Seattle instead of Goodwill? Women not only get new clothes, personal dressers help them get an understanding of how to put themselves together nor just for the interview, but for days thereafter. …Women begin to see themselves & their circumstances differently when they look in the mirror. They see new found confidence – possibilities! Whether on the inside or the out, how can you begin to see yourself differently...

“Have you worked with lesbians in the past?” Just got an inquiry, thought to share with you in case it’s relevant for you or someone you know: Prospect: I’m thinking of giving the three hour boot camp package to my friend who struggles with her professional wardrobe.

Just in: She didn’t give up! “It is kind of funny. This morning I put on my skirt that now does not crawl (go crossfit :-)) and a top and jacket and the nude pumps. It didn’t look right. In the past I would have given up. Now I was able to figure out that it was not right because it is just too corporate for the event I’m going to. This is the last one of a series of 12 meetings and part of the rest of them I wore jeans, and have never worn heels. I kept the skirt and pumps and went with a sleeveless top and...
read moreA Life Changing Outcome!
ROCK YOUR SHAPE – Uniquely Savvy Workshop I had the great pleasure of being a member in the same chapter of BNI with Kim Peterson. My job is running after animals, running errands and getting the organization up and running. I didn’t really think I needed a “professional” wardrobe as such. But getting to know Kim and listening to her speak of what she does, I began to realize that she was talking about reflecting the inner you with the outer you. As a woman who is only 5 ft tall and not of a delicate build, I abhor...
read moreSelf-Care Saved My Day!
(Thoughts from last Tuesday…) Would love to take today as a personal self-care day….the introvert in me wants to process, journal and just BE. *My heart is heavy for folks hurting around me – from the youth to the grown ups *I’m thinking it’s better to seek understanding and love than to have a surplus of hate or judgment *Received some interesting news that has me with question marks *Still incredulous to how I was treated while pre shopping for a client the other day….their thought that I might steal led to my being...

CELEBRATING …and the day’s just begun! Today’s client is a total ROCK STAR! We’ve been doing a complete discovery….branding and styling from the inside-out. She grew up a tomboy, and now is in a station in life whereby she wants to step into more of who she is, and “learn” how to embrace her feminine….Anyhoo, I’m totally jazzed about her pre-shopping from 6 different stores to create the look that’s uniquely her own, and emailed her a detailed list of what to expect and how to best prepare/dress for shopping...
read moreSpeak Your Truth
#SpeakYourTruth – Words are powerful! Are you effectively speaking your truth? In business, I might ask you, “Are you effectively speaking your unique promise of value?” Your unique value of promise is what your clients expect from you; it’s what you, as your brand, promise to deliver. When you are able to clearly “speak” your truth and your unique value of promise, you are able to more effectively help people know if ‘who they are and what they need’ aligns with who you are and what you have to offer. Do you...

How do you figure out what your purpose is? ….Such a big question, right?! As your authentic personal brand identity encompasses this ingredient – your purpose- it is a topic I often find myself coaching clients through during their personal brand discovery. No matter how many times you’ve asked yourself, “What’s my purpose?”, a step in exploring that might be to consider experiences that have you feeling a sense of tremendous fulfillment and passion -you know those activities when time passes...

read moreWhat Message Do Hyper Sexualized Dolls Send Our Girls?
Have you seen these dolls? I appreciate the message this article offers young girls…I like that it invites little girls to play with dolls that are not hyper sexualized – dolls they can relate to and perhaps have a sense that – “It’s okay to be me…without all the extras.” I posted this on Uniquely Savvy’s FB and a hair stylist had this comment: “Being in the business of helping people look better and feel better, I hear on a daily basis the comparison that women make between themselves and airbrushed photos. It is...
read moreVideo Blog: “Don’t Judge My Body”
What happens when you judge, compare and gossip about others? The impact often is longstanding and erosive. Whether the giver or the recipient, the impact can compound and become a barrier to you stepping into your unique purpose, greatness – even joy. After all, if you can’t be comfortable in your own skin on a daily basis due to the toxicity of others – and perhaps even yourself – how can you step into who you were truly fashioned to be? You can….absolutely you can. But the road may be tougher and longer as you...
read moreJ Crew: Size 000
On TRIPLE 0: J Crew sells petite and tall sizes and last year “000” was created to accommodate a new and valid customer base/new market in Asia, but there’s a bit of controversy. What are your thoughts? I will share two videos. One clip posed this “….Creates additional burdens for young women in America who are already given unrealistic ideas about sizes.” Another (3rd video down), “ I think it’s very frightening especially to a teenage girl, those are the sorts of things that contribute to eating...

…What an honor to finally work with this woman who had corresponded several times with Uniquely Savvy since January……She kept telling me that she had an odd shaped body and because of that “it’s really difficult to find anything and I hate shopping.” I came to understand this message through the hesitant conversations we’d had, yet when I met her, I was somewhat taken aback because she was nothing as she’d described! She was NOT odd shaped at all!!! She just didn’t have right aligned perspective. After a...

Hoping your weekend has been good to you, I’m reminded about an opportunity you might want to know about next Saturday, April 18th. It’s called “A Day of Brave for Couples”, but single tickets are available. “Healthy communication after abuse is explored during this one day event. Gain a better understanding of what the thinking is behind what we say, how we say it, and why it matters. If you or someone you love has been abused, this will help give insight and tools to a more healthy relationship.” My...

Good Mornin’! What do you think about this? ….For me, I’ve learned to be a student of people. I made that conscious decision after I wasn’t discerning personal and professional relationships well enough and made a series of poor and costly decisions – for years…..In being a student, I watch “actions” more, I listen more deeply…..more time is offered to see how one treats themselves, others…and me. This isn’t about being skeptical, it’s about letting *people show...
