3 Key Issues in Selecting the Best Women’s Plus-Size Business Clothes

December 25th, 2010


Many women hold responsible leadership positions in business and it is important to convey the right attitude in our clothing. Selecting the right women’s plus-size business clothing will make a statement about how serious we are about working or playing at our job.

Here are 3 Key points to consider when selecting your plus-size business attire:

1. The right style.

If you hold a management position, then more tailored suit-type clothing is most appropriate. Avoiding form-fitting flimsy dress styles will communicate to others that you are there for business and not to flirt. What you wear definitely sends signals. Men are very much influenced by what they see, so send your message strong and clear that you are there to work and not to play.

Select the styles that most complement your shape. If you are pear-shaped (with larger hips and legs) avoid any clothing that would emphasize those areas. Styles that cut you in half should be avoided. These include tops that tuck in at the waist and are in contrast to your slacks or skirts. Solid colors for both the top and bottom that do not cinch in at the waist would work well. Suit coats that come down to your hips and are the same color as your skirt would be most appropriate and most flattering.

2. The right colors or patterns.

Generally most solid colors are acceptable and should be selected according to which look best on you. Sometimes dresses with patterns are appropriate if they convey business style instead of flirtatious style. Again, when you walk into the room, what are your clothes saying to everyone else. Are you commanding respect as a leader or will people snicker because you are inappropriately dressed. If you have trouble knowing what signals you are sending, ask a close friend to help you make your clothing decisions.

3. How your clothes fit.

It is important to wear clothing that fits right. If it is too large and baggy, it will make you look sloppy. If it is pressed and neat, you will look organized, tidy and setting that tone in your office. Have you ever noticed that what you wear determines your frame of mind? What I mean is, when you dress for working in the yard, you usually select your “scruffies” (clothes that are loose, baggy, and you are not afraid to get dirty). However, when you go to church or to an important gathering, you dress neat and “put together” to show respect and that you are well groomed. You do not feel like working in the yard with these clothes on. And when you wear your yard clothes, you surely do not feel like going to church! Select clothes for the office that will make you feel like doing office work. Yes, clothes do make a difference in your frame of mind.

Once you get the hang of it and realize how the right clothing will affect your attitude toward your work, you will have fun selecting those styles, colors and types of women’s plus-size business clothing that will make you the most productive. And by sending the right signals to your employees by what you wear, you will see more productive work from them, too.

Breast Implants and How to Decide the Right Cup Size

December 21st, 2010


You’re tired of being flat chested and of being unable to find blouses and bathing suits that fit properly. Cleavage? What’s that? Or you’re a mother to one or more little darlings and have truly enjoyed the breastfeeding experience.

While lactating, your breasts were full and lovely and you felt like a womanly goddess, but when you were finally finished nursing, the unfortunate result to your chest area was a couple of empty pouches. Alluring clothes are nearly impossible to find. The padded push up bra has been somewhat helpful, but let’s face it, you want to look good naked. Breast implants, here you come.

The cosmetic surgery which will increase the fullness in your chest area is called breast augmentation, affectionately known as a boob job. It is performed by a reputable plastic surgeon on an outpatient basis (which means that no hospital stay is required). The anesthetic can vary but often is twilight sleep with sedation. During the procedure, an incision is made either in the armpit area, under the breast or around the nipple area.

All three of these locations are ideal spots because they can hide any scarring that may occur. An implant, which may be made of either a silicone solution or saline solution, is placed in the breast area either behind the chest muscle or in front of the muscle and directly beneath the flesh.

But how big should you go? If you go too large, you will appear top heavy or even matronly. If you go too small, well then, what was the point? There are a few ways to decide.

When you go to the initial consultation appointment with your plastic surgeon, it’s a good idea to look over the surgeon’s selection of “before and after” photos in order to determine what outcomes are actually possible.

Ask your plastic surgeon for his or her opinion, as he or she is specially trained to have an eye for composition, scale and aesthetics. He or she has seen many outcomes of this operation performed on bodies of all shapes and sizes so will certainly have an opinion worth trusting.

You might want to try a few options on for size. Ask your physician to allow you to take home a couple of different sized implants in order to live with them a bit. Place each of the various sized implants in a practice stretchy bra in order to see what your clothes look like and how you feel going out in public.

Do you feel and look sexy and proportioned as a B cup, C cup or D cup? Or do you look unnaturally large? Is the increase of your curviness to such a small degree that it’s barely perceptible? Seeing is believing. Ask your best friend, husband, or lover for their honest opinion.

After getting feedback from all of these trusted sources, take a few days to think about it and then trust your own instincts.

Scarves For Women – How to Wear the Right Scarves!

December 17th, 2010


Gorgeous women’s scarves…

You’re going to a very important job interview that will determine your ultimate career path. You are going to make a presentation to a large executive board who will decide on your promotion. You are about to meet a new boss.

All these scenarios can be quite challenging. It is completely normal to be nervous. Don’t fret though – we have the concept of “power dressing”. With power dressing, you are able to exude confidence in yourself, to achieve seemingly impossible tasks. You are also able to generate respect from older or more authoritative individuals. You can achieve this sense of power dressing with scarves for women. Scarves are flexible and can work both in formal and casual situations, at the same time making you look more mature and possibly even smarter.

How do you choose scarves for women?

First, there’s color. Business attire usually commands darker hues such as black, gray or white. You can match scarves of the opposite color. For example, if you plan to wear a black pantsuit, match it with a white, beige or gray scarf. Wearing scarves that have the same color as your blazer can be predictable and bland. However, this does not mean that you can’t use color. Bright colors can introduce an impression of positivism for you. Just use them in moderation. For example, wearing a bright orange scarf may seem to be too loud when worn with a red blazer, but can work wonders with a white one.

Second, there is also the print or pattern. Be cautious about using scarves for women with prints. Prints have the tendency to look louder and more casual, hence they may be better set aside for business meetings. You can be more creative, however, provided that the prints are not too loud and are isolated. For instance, you can wear a scarf with Pucci prints or other brightly colored patterns. To avoid making the look too loud, you can wear the scarf as a cravat or bracelet, tucked inside a long-sleeved blouse. This uses the unique bright color of the scarf without giving too much of it away.

Lastly, you can use other accessories in addition to the scarf. Note that these accessories are meant to complement the scarf and not to overpower them. Examples of suitable accessories are pearls, small brooches and beads. Strike a balance between wearing that something that is able to complement the entire look that you are trying to achieve.
