DRESS FOR SUCCESS!!


When applying for a job, or anything you are always told the key advice. DRESS FOR SUCCESS, your first impression is everything..!! Volunteering has always been a fave of mine. HOwever I stumbled upon an organization, that is so dear to my heart. I am so intrigued by the goal of this organization, and everything they are about, and everything they are out to do.


Due to our economy being the way that it is, and people being out of jobs.Dress For Success hosts drives, getting people to donate suits, and business attire.Dress For Success' main goal is to provide confidence, and help there clients get a job and remain employed. By dressing for success, they have already helped 450,000 women all over the world. They are still helping women achieve their dreams, and get the job they always have wanted.

I have written the affiliate here in San Antonio, just expressing I would love to help in any way. This is something I am sooo excited about. I urge you readers, since we all love our clothes, to get involved. Share the Love!!Go to the website, and find out how you can help. I personally thought this was the perfect volunteer program for me, Its like doing makeovers. Not just on the outside, Its a make over for the soul. By changing their life, and providing them with the stability everyone should have!! :) Relieving someones stress, giving them the confidence to succeed!!

New Wardrobe for a New Job



As I was younger, my fave game other than house was to play office. I wanted to be a business lady, carry a briefcase, and be IMPORTANT.. When I got older and got to live out my dream, I found out just wearing suits can get very boring..Its not all as dazzling as it seems~~!!I got offered a position at an insurance company, where I will be trained to be an insurance agent. So not only do I need to look amazing, I need to be comfortable and confident in what I am wearing.. SO the search was on, I am so tired of my office attire and I need an affordable work wardrobe.. So I began searching websites, like Agaci, Charlotte Rousse, Macys, and of course Forever 21..
My finds were simple, I love to wear dresses.. SO I found the following..These dresses are exactly what I am lookin for. The best part is I look amazing, and the prices are under thirty dollars!!



This gray one is perfect, its long enough and when its fall will look gorgeous underneath a beautiful peacoat..!! The sleeves are beautiful and I love the sophistication and classy look!!

This white and black one, is something I can make mine, and achieve many different styles.. I could add a thin red belt with my red stilettos, for a brighter look!

Of course, I dont want to wear dresses everyday. SO I found some elegant tops, that individually will give me the ability to be stylish and work..



This top with black or grey pants is absolutely perfect for the work day!!

I would probably pair this one with a gorgeous skirt!

Me being who I am, I got off task .. Well Is the glass half empty or half full?? Good side is I found some nothing less of Glam dresses!! Well my birthday is in a few weeks, so I might as well knock two birds out with one stone.. Party Dress.. ?? Maybe. But here are just a few examples I found..



This dress is chic, but I think not fun enough for a party dress.. Hmm, probably more cocktail dress…

Stylish, up to date, and classy.. With that perfect combination, I dont think you can ever go wrong!! In the words of Coco Chanel: Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.
