"Casual Friday Fabulous!"
I am personally appalled about what passes as acceptable for Casual Fridays in Calgary. Casual Fridays originally meant that men could wear sports jackets, instead of a matched suit. Today Casual Friday has become "Sloppy Friday" with employees wearing ragged jeans, cargo pants or shorts, flip flops or "Crocs", T-shirts, spaghetti strap or cleavage-baring tops, and other inappropriate wear.In this"Lunch n' Learn", we will discuss the benefits of a professional image and what works & what doesn't when it comes to dressing more casually for Fridays. We will also discuss possible outfit ideas including dark wash jeans and trendy jackets, and other great ideas. I can bring physical clothing to show as examples or provide a Powerpoint slide presentation based on your venue.
Length: 45 minutes
“The Power of You: Dressing For Your Success"
You cannot NOT communicate, even if you haven’t opened your mouth! Your image is continually at work communicating to yourself and others. Our external image can open or close doors and impact whether or not we reach our goals. In other words, your image can work for you or against you in building your credibility and career as a professional.
In this seminar, we will explore the topic of image management and how our appearance affects how we act, feel, and think, as well as how others respond to us. Learn about “image breakers” and what to wear to have the greatest impact and credibility in whatever career path you have chosen.
LEARN STRATEGIES FOR:
• Auditing your image
• Using a tool called “The Style Scale” to help you dress for your success
• Developing a plan to take your image “up a notch”
• Building a “smart” wardrobe.
Length: 1.0 – 2.0 hours. The workshop includes two handouts for practical application and implementation.

Loving & Dressing the Body You Are Currently In
