Dressing For A Change

Have you decided that you want a transformation of image? Or would you just like to smarten yourself up a bit? Maybe you have a new job with new colleagues and you would like to take this opportunity to dress a bit more elegantly. Occasionally people like to transform their image when they are searching for or have just discovered a new partner.

While changing one's image most people will focus on a new hair style and smarter clothes. Women might go for smart trouser suits or power dresses and men may decide to wear a lounge suit or a jacket and tie more often. If the weather is bad an expensive overcoat always completes the image, particularly suede, cashmere or leather. It used to be that fur was de rigeur, but now it is duh.

However, there is another way of changing your image, a way that need not be that expensive, although sometimes it takes courage to do it. That is the wearing or the using of accessories. Women have more scope here in numerous ways, but men have alternatives too.

Women can wear something in their new hair style; possibly co-ordinate bags and shoes; they can wear a different kind of stockings or could start wearing gloves, white kid, for example. They could change the style of jewelery they wear and the colour or their hair and lipstick. Belts, brooches, watches and scarves can also serve the purpose of changing ones image. They could also wear a fresh flower on their lapel, in their hair or behind their ear for that old style gypsy look:-) (that is the brave one).

Men have a slightly more difficult time of it without looking daft, but men can wear better shoes, wear a tie more often or an expensive watch. They could carry a briefcase and an umbrella, and wear a flower in their button hole, but this is where it begins to look a bit contrived. They could also wear a monocle, a pocket watch or a bow tie.

My cousin wears a monocle and once you overcome your first instinct to laugh, you have to admit that he looks fairly elegant. The same is true of bow ties, which he wears too and insists on tying it by hand. He also carries an umbrella, a briefcase and wears pinstripes. He is very brave and he is noticed and remembered wherever he goes.

However, you do not have to go that far. Even simply wearing a bow tie instead of a tie will set you apart. Have you noticed that if you are talking to someone wearing a bow tie you cannot stop staring at it? It is the men's equivalent of a woman's low-cut dress.

Anyway, accessories are a cheaper way of changing your image than going out and buying a new wardrobe of outfits and they are more easily combined that different suits. Go for colours that blend easily, like blacks, greys, browns and off-whites. Understatement is usually better than garish.
